Weird guild name change after server maintenance

So when I logged in after the server maintenance, I was about to rush in and claim a spot in Maplestory FM. However, a pressing matter concerned me almost exactly at the time of my login. I looked at my character, and underneath my ign was something I have never seen before. My guild name, previously named Softcore, was changed..to Jade Arrow =.=. So my initial response to this shocking change was, "Oh, I must be lagging. Everything will probably be alright. So then, I go get my other labtop and log on another character which is in the same guild. "Jade Arrow"- stated the guild name. At this point, I knew this wasn't just a coincidence...about 30 mins later, when a few of my other early bird guildies woke up and played, their response to the change was, " Hey Vivi, whatcha doi....what? Jade Arrow?" So..ya. I asked several of my other lvl 200 friends who have been playing maplestory a lot earlier than I have and asked them what they thought about this. None of them have been able to identify the reason or cause for this change, as well as identify this change in the history of maple itself. Finally, I have reached a logical conclusion. A GM has pwned my guild for fun. GG. . . . Does anyone have any ideas what happened?

it was inappropriate in maple standards ~.~ edit - as in it has very close resemblance to hardcore, and I don't think they found that funny

If a GM sees your name as offencive in any way they can change it to whatever they wish. They probably thought you were referring to softcore adult entertainment

=.= I made this guild name SoftCore because it was used to describe the people in my guild. I wanted it to mean a softie at heart(core). i guess Nexon depicted it as a negative connotation.
