despite your categorizing those who don't agree with you as childish whiners.
Keep in mind, this thread wasn't about people's opinions about the way I choose to run the game. But I'm being bombarded by criticism over one piddly issue even 8 pages in and even to the point where I'm being accused of machoism.
I'm not complaining about it, I can take the heat. But you better believe that I will be critical right back. If people want to tell me what they think about those who have a restriction on names, then I'll tell them what I think about people that use those silly names.
The point of the silly name story was that I set forth a reasonable rule (no silly names please) and she fought with me about it. I'd never argue like that with a DM.
Hell, I just remembered that she went as far as to tell everyone that she would require us to make silly names in the game she wanted to DM for us. She thought that would irritate me, but I'm perfectly ok with doing that if that is what the DM wanted. I may not last long in a campaign like that & I definitely wouldn't take it seriously, but I'd give it a shot.
