So I had a child wrestle with a forgotten beast until he reached legendary fighter/wrestler, and then get his arm hacked off.

The forgotten beast is now wearing his leather glove, and eternally fighting with a dog.

It became attached to the glove, which is how I first discovered he was using it.

Then he named it, again, and again, and again -.-

These are within like 10 seconds of each other, will it stop? T.T

Not until it dies.

On the upside, it has an arm, so it's probably one of the killable forgotten beasts.

This is a common bug, but (in this case) exceptionally awesome.

There's a setting to turn off renaming announcements, I think... either in the orders menu or the init file.

No, It wont stop,  I've had the same issue with a cavern dweller that managed to kill a forgotten beast.  The trouble being that I couldn't kill her as she was now friendly.  It was so annoying I ended up abandoning.

If it's friendly then it is super easy to fix that problem with some water, magma, or cave in.

Oddly, in my games, no one has ever named their weapon (or get attached to equipment for that matter.) I don't fight much though.

I had an antwoman kill a forgotten beast, and become attached to her shield. Unfortunately she died of old age shortly after, at the ripe old age of 4.

I couldn't kill mine either and couldnt' figure out why. She must be friendly. Maybe I'll collect her in a cage trap, and then kill her with an unfortunate col...

Put item namer in cage.
Put cage in room.
Assign lever to cage.
Ensure cage and mechanism will not melt.
Fill room with magma.
Pull lever.
Put magma back where you found it.
Still have everything except for the offending item namer.

[CrossBolt]

Confiscate the item and send it to bed with a smacked bottom

Guys.

Change [NAMED_ARTIFACT:A_D:D_D:BOX:P:R] to [NAMED_ARTIFACT:A_D:D_D]

You'll get an announcement, but it won't pause or recenter. No need to kill a friendly who's helping out your fort  .

[Oglokoog]

Hmm, smacked bottom...

[LordSlowpoke]

...Mod out their...
Ears? Arms? Entire heads, maybe?
I know that you have to mod out something.

[Deimos56]

Head works. Awfully permanent though.
