Alliances:

Sleeper Social Club (Sleepers are NPC)
NC. (Similar to Northern Coalition)
GSF (Similar to Goonfleet)
every god damned Nulli (Come on.)
Mordu's Angels (NPC entity)
CVA (Representing NPC entity)
Black Legion (There can only be one legion)
Pandemic Legion (There can only be ONE LEGION)
Confederation of xXPIZZAXx (Misrepresenting foodstuffs)
Yulai Federation (Copies CONCORD's logo, representing CONCORD)
SpaceMonkey's Alliance (not actually monkeys, what the hell why did they lie?) [See this post]
Sanctuary Pact (Masquerading as an actual alliance)
TNT (Not actually explosives)
SOLAR FLEET (Misrepresenting; not actually a fleet of suns)
RAZOR Alliance (Misrepresenting; not actually razors)
Test Alliance Please Ignore (Graduated from experiment to failure, still a test?)
CoW (Not actually bovines)

Corps:

Goonwaffe (Similar to Goonfleet)
Dreddit (Similar to the Reddit link aggregation site)
Fweddit (Similar to the Reddit link aggregation site, also a rip off of Dreddit, a double whammy!)
Amok. (dotte)
Fat Country (how rude)
Bat Country. (dotte)
Bat Country (impersonating a bat)
Love Squad (Misrepresenting emotion)
JSR1 AND GOLDEN GUARDIAN PRODUCTIONS (impersonating JRS-1 Space Research)
Bene Gesserit ChapterHouse [See this post]
ENL-I (Not actually enlightened; see me when Buddha becomes your CEO)
An entire list of Ministry corporations too large to fit in this OP

Actually, any corporation with a period is masquerading as punctuation and is in direct violation of the ToS

It should be noted that every single 'NPC' corporation in EVE is in violation, as they are, in fact, completely staffed by players.

I will periodically update this list with new suggestions, this is just a starting point.

I support this. It's incredible what certain corps/alliances can get away with.

CCP should just ban everyone and get it over with. It's a scenario where everybody wins!

All this for a change that never happened, since the rules have always been in place on the naming rules.

All trolling aside, some of these do indeed seem to violate the TOS.

Good point! I'll add your alliance to the list, we all know you're not monkeys in space, as such you would lack the intelligence to form an actual alliance!

Ban Fatal Ascension, because we're probably misrepresenting a terrible, small time hair-metal band that just wont give up on ~pursuing the dream~.

REPORT START

SpaceMonkey's Alliance:

If you google the term "SpaceMonkey's" this links of course to a 4 peice band from Manchester, England which I do not believe the alliance are affiliated with. Since they had a top hit in 1997 they have been in existence much longer then the alliance.

Recommended Action: Ban the alliance name and all members, delete all their accounts for violating ToS.




Bene Gesserit ChapterHouse:

Bene Gesserit of course is a political group from the Dune universe. Since the author of Dune has not been dead for 50 years his works are not (yet) global commons and therefore the corporation would need copyright permission to use the reference in their name.

Recommended Action: Ban the alliance name and all members, delete all their accounts for violating ToS.



Executive Outcomes

Executive Outcomes was a south african mercenary corporation some years ago but is now disbanded.

Recommended Action: Compliment the group on a fitting choice of name and grant them a bonus 2million SP for picking a name of a now defunct company.

We need space lawyers to file well-written petitions to CCP, explaining how it's a TOS violation and how there's no way to not ban them.

Inquisitor Kitchner. I don't mean to put you on the spot, but is it true that you are in fact not a member of the Imperial Inquisition within the Warhammer 40k universe?

The answer may shock you Nathanael:

It is true.

I am NOT a real Inquisitor of any sort.

You best add me to the list and ban all my accounts in case someone thought I was actually an Inquisitor and started confessing their sins to me for absolution.
