Current guidelines rule for more context:
Invalid Names:
In order to have a valid name on our server, it must contain three consecutive English characters and be pronounceable. We do this so it is easier for players to understand and pronounce as well as making it easier for staff to issue chat commands. Examples: “ ” (or blank name), ニコラス, etc. Use common sense here, if it doesn’t have 3 English characters or isn’t pronounceable, tell them to change it. Exceptions may be made for 2 letter names that can be easily pronounced (eg AO, AE and FX).
Furthermore, players’ names must be distinguishable from each other. If a player changes their name to closely resemble or copy another player’s name, tell them to change it. If someone is impersonating another player with malicious intent, follow the guidelines for trolling or harassment depending on severity. This rule does not need to be strictly enforced for names that are similar merely by coincidence so long as the names are still distinct from one another. If necessary, ask the player that connected most recently to change their name temporarily.

It is not okay to literally tell people their opinions are wrong because they disagree.
