Yesterday, My Corp mate had his name of six months taken away from him as it was deemed offensive. his name was "September11 2000 fun" a name he took from the American prime time TV series Family Guy. If this name was SO offensive to people, then why has the American FCC allowing it to be continually aired on prime time television?.
This came as a shock, but we know of the culprit who submitted the report on him. The culprit was a self described vehicle veteran and while the man did have some mad skills he was a bit of an ******* to the squad barking out orders and such and taking all the fun out of the match. Subsequently he was kicked from the squad.
I might add that he found our squad through the squad finder and "September11 2000 fun" was the squad leader. He even stated that he joined our squad because he liked his name.
After having his inflated ego bruised, he then submitted a request to have his name removed deeming it offensive, and CCP complied. This power of censorship was given to this whiny player by CCP. It could be you that is next. Like this post if you agree this player went too far. and was given too much power. when all he had to do is block my friend.

Agreed, but that's all he is guilty of is bad taste. The point I'm making is the power given to said vindictive player. If it were multiple players complaining then sure my friend would have just taken a new name. And I'm not taking about Comedy central, I'm talking FOX prime time. |

Blame your own military industrial complex for that one. The tragedy isn't the issue here. censorship is. I'm not starting a debate over 9/11. |

You must be American? right? I guess you don't believe in freedom of speech. Probably because it has been taken away from you. Hope you enjoy your coming police state. |

Oh don't get me wrong, I saw it coming and so did he. Who wouldn't? you'd have to be blind not to see that coming. The only thing that is bothersome is the power that player had been given. Like I stated before he even liked the name and though it awesome before he was kicked. |

While All of you have very valid points, and opinions. and I do respect them all. I was just looking for feedback. My friend said he will wear his new prison # with pride. And Sota I'm no kid, and there's even a slim chance I banged you mom while you sat watching cartoons and eating crunch berries. |

If you ever have an inkling that what you're doing might be offensive to someone or anyone, it's safer to not put yourself in that position. Not everyone may get the joke.
Well said. |

Thanks to all of you for the feedback. See you in New Eden. I could care less either way, but my friend's PC fried and I was just here to gain him some feedback before he submits a ticket. He sends his thanks. |
