also man my internet is moving at a snail's pace

Permanent but unnamed?

As in like I bought this dragon to keep, not exalt, but haven't bothered to name it.

Huh

/is the laziest about naming

I just assumed it didnt matter

also I have at least 2 dragons I want to ripple noooo

A lot of dumb things matter to this playerbase tbh.

I never used to name my dragons and then one day I named them all

I got tired of people PMing me with "your dragon isnt named and I want to buy it"

I've only gotten that once so maybe I just have ugly dragon taste lol.

surprisingly i only have one unnamed dragon atm...i just dunno what to name her

(more likely people don't know I exist because I don't do anything on the forums)

What is the argument for why they should have a name?

same thing it always is: seeing "Unnamed" in their offspring bothers them.

haha

but what about joke names?

i had someone buy a dragon from me and name it "unamed"

would you rather see Poopie in your offspring's history?

I pointed this out on tumblr, but one person who was arguing for automatically named results said that if people exalt unnamed for RP reasons or to know what they've exalted don't like the automatic names, they

should just ignore them!!

and I was like "...and you can't just ignore the "unnamed" why...?"

this makes me want to find the people that complain about this and renamed the dragon "Unamed" because im a jerk like that

I've seen some people do "Unnarned"

with an RN instead of an m

lol

lol the person's like "So they could just name them NoName or something" and I'm like...

they mean the same thing why would it bother you less...

im going to start naming dragons "Named"

lmfao

I'm just... the stupidity of this.

You obviously do not have some deep emotional connection to a dragon once you sell it so why do you care so much what it's named.

*if you sell it I mean

yeah....

Dragon the Dragon

lol

if i do exalts from brought dragons again theyre all going to be named "Named" or "Dargon"

or better yet "Named Dargon"

haha

omg yes

If the name field were long enough you could do "LookINamedIt" or something.

lol

dragonson

drag

dragson

yes

When I buy a bunch for exalting purposes I always want to name them something stupid in a theme like Ke$ha song titles and see if anyone notices >> But I'm weak

lol

i usually just randomize it

yeah me too

I only name mine because I don't exalt hatchlings I exalt adults that are coli trained.

So I have to.

But a lot of my own dragons are unnamed just because I don't feel like naming them.

Or I haven't thought of a name.

Or I have thought of one but I can't bother to click the name button and type it in.

The Mt. Everest of lazy.

XDDD Yeah I name them because I coli train soooo

at worst I'll randomize and sometimes stare at the options (hotdog?)

guys draggun namez r srs bzns

I cna't beleve u dun curr bout my draggun feelz

okay I'm done.

Seriously.

I got into an argument and the person was like "It wouldn't be harming anyone but a small subset of people to force exalts to be named."

It's not harming anyone now!

They were like "The only argument I've seen against it is people who purposely want unnamed exalts for RP" but the only reason for it is "I don't like unnameds in my list" which is stupid.

Do I want to know why you'd have unnamed exalts for RP?

Probably not

but I agree with you, really

it's not something to fight over

Various reasons.

A baby that died in the egg or died too young to be named.

You have to do something to earn a name and they didn't.

Whatever.

ah

Belatedly, naming a dragon just to hassle someone (So "LookINamedIt") is technically against the rules...

NOT THAT I CARE JUST...

I don't want anyone to get banned for spite-naming.

I think we were all just joking about it.

I know, and it's really not that big of a deal at all? But they made a big kerfuffle over it, it even had its own newspost section.

It's considered harassment...

I know, I remember. No one here is actually going to harass anybody.

No I'm not saying anyone is!

Like I said, I don't think it's a big deal either??

Plus if anyone coming by is new, they might not have seen it. Personally I think UNNARNED is funny but the admins don't I guess. :U

I love unnarned but yeah people would get huffy about it.

people need thicker skins but okay
