I'm sure that this (http://www.nationstates.net/00907/page=display_nation/nation=truth_no_bullshit) breaks the nothing obscene rule.

If this is the wrong place to report something like this, I apologise.

If I recall correctly they prefer you report it via the getting help page. (http://www.nationstates.net/-1/page=help)

Now that you have posted here though, I am sure you can just wait until next time to do that, since the mods will see it anyway.

Doesn't look like they were trying to be a jerk, but that name's no good, so deleted. In the future, though, Smunkee's right: the Getting Help Page is the prefered place to report bad nation names.

I just read this (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=518618)thread and my nation name is not allowed.
Can you tell me why plz.
Im sorry about whatever it is that I did, if its Shakal, thats a name I made up out of randomness, I have no idea what other meaning it holds. Im sorry if this is the wrong place for this but im panicing here...

Links to nations that have been deleted always dump you back on your own nation page. The nation in question was "Truth No Bullshit", not Shekal ... or in my case when I clicked the link, "Frisbeeteria".

You're fine.

No sense in having two threads on the same topic...

At any rate, there's nothing wrong with your nation name, Shakal. When you try to view a deleted nation, you're taken to your own nation page. You're fine.

Nation names cannot be changed save by a massive amount of effort by a Game Administrator. So-called pretitles can be fully customized at 500 million citizens.

The i in isa? As that's part of your nation name, and not part of 'the whatever of whatever' it is immutable, immobile and indeed stuck.

I really didn't know that...

a sticky saying "this is an example of inappropriate name" and have a link to a deleted nation. :D
