It doesn't deter me, only cause it's easy enough to get ~6k from Runestones and wait for a name change scroll to restock in the market. I can deal with dragon names I didn't pick until then. But the majority of what I buy are usually unnamed anyways, I just use the random name generator when I go to level them up and exalt them.

Named definitely deters me.

For what it's worth named dragons on the AH do not deter me from buying them if I like the colours enough *Points at Hara and Eve*. I only look purely for unnamed dragons when using the Search function.

At least they've made it an actionable offense. Report it.

Eeesh, report the hell out of that. I was willing to accept "Tasteless" and "Unloved" and all that as people just being rude, because people do that and whatever. But "Trannie" is absolutely unacceptable. No. Not okay.
Seriously, the name "Mulch" was banned because someone was exalting and naming the babies Mulch (which, I'll be honest, is a REALLY cute name). But "Trannie"? That horribly offensive term? That wasn't banned yet? >.<

I thought that was an automotive term short for transmission, at least that's how I've always heard it used.

It's become a slur against transgendered people. >.< Being called a "trannie" is up there with "he-she" and all those other lovely phrases.
Edit- Warning! The site is having serious issues right now, and doing things such as buying things from the MP, buying things off AH, bonding with familiars and opening chests may result in you not getting any loot/not getting the item, but losing the chest/money. A lot of people are having this problem.

Where would I report the "Trannie" name?

Use the 'Contact Us' email and include the dragon #id. Be sure to email them from the account attached to your FR account.
The person probably thought they were being 'clever' because I assume it's a male dragon and it's bright pinkish-orange. And therefore "gay".
