Does anyone know what are the rules regarding shipnames, does anyone know if I will get banned for renaming a Battleship to HMS Hemp or Cannabis or 420?

If you even have to ask, probably no. Pretty sure anything objectionable is not allowed.

The promotion of any illegal drug is not permitted as a ship name, and you would be requested to change it by a Moderator.

Causes quite a grey area with several drugs which also have perfectly normal meanings

meow meow, skunk, hash, acid

Okey, shipnames are sometimes strange...

 

For example, I had a ship called "Takasuka" and someone from TNF told me that I broke the server rules, because "Takasuka" (more precisely "Taka suka") means "such bitch" in Polish...

"Takasuka" is from the surname of Japanese entrepreneur Toru Takasuka (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toru_Takasuka)

I'd like to know if my shipname is ok, hence it contains the surname.

 

Another issue is for example "Dick" - you know, Dick Advoocat, Dick Cheney...
