What was the BluZone?

It was a good RP, got shut down because of what Knaiz said, and the bluzone got nuked or something in-story. It also had a high amount of handicaps perma-banned.

No. I believe the banning system was retarted, I bet many potential RPers got banned for the Setname function. It got nuked after it got shutdown, and it was a good RP.

You must not have been following the server very closely. If you were, you would have noticed that yes, silly names was an instant-ban but that was later changed. Not only that, but bans could be appealed as well.
Atop that, you probably have no idea how to run a server (let alone a role play) of that size.

If someone sets their name to something ridiculous, do you really think they are going to role-play well? It easily filters out the idiots. It's one of the reasons I really wanted melee weapons in the server when Knaz said he removed them because it tempts people to fight with them and deathmatch. I saw this as a way to improve the gameplay and filter out the idiots. If you're tempted to do stupid stuff, you probably can't role-play effectively.

First impressions counted for a lot in the Bluzone.
