Yeah, that name should be reported, though currently there is no way to do that in Dust, at least AFAIK.
You can report names in Eve, I would assume that we will be able to do the same sooner than later in Dust. |

Pretty sure the EVE character name terms apply.
b. Character names may not:
Impersonate or parody any employee or representative of EVE Online, CCP, Customer Support personnel or volunteers.
Impersonate or parody an NPC type from the EVE game world (i.e. CONCORD or other official NPC corporation or organization members) for the purpose of misleading other players.
Reflect, glorify or emulate any real-world group or organization, terrorist society, criminal elements, discriminating organizations or their leaders and figureheads. This includes the use of names of real-world military, political or religious groups.
Be obscene, vulgar, sexually explicit, offensive, hurtful, harmful, promote drugs, profane, anti-gay, and ethnically, racially or sexually offensive or impart any real-world hostility toward a specific nationality, race or religion. |

Really? You need to have the slippery slope fallacy explained to you? Sounds boring, I'd rather just lol at you without justifying my lols. |

Computers can only censor so much without accidentally censoring innocent words like "assault" and make it into "kittenault". Character names are equally difficult. This is why only a person can compensate for things that fall through the cracks. In other words, report the name to CCP.

The word "Auschwitz" is the name of the N A Z I death camp (now a museum) in Germany that reportedly killed more Jews during WWII than any other such camps. It's not just a name. |

I know very well what the place is and the person is no doubt a douchebag for using it. The question is, where do you draw the line. Censorship isn't just a slippery slope, it's a damn waterfall.
Now...how many times have YOU told someone who didn't like something in the EvE/Dust universe to "HTFU"? Right back at ya this time. |

I think there is some reason to be upset over a name like that, especially if you were a Jew or had family members who went through that. Like if someone had the name Sandy Hook playground, or That Columbine Kid. Most people around the world wouldn't get the names, but to suggest that the names weren't meant to stir the pot is ludicrous. |

This just begs for a Harry Potter quote: 'Always use the proper name for things. Fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself.' -Albus Dumbledore
On the other hand, only a total **** would use the name 'Auschwitz', so I certainly won't feel bad for repeatedly teamkilling him and waving my adv nanite injector in his face, stealing his HAV, and then running him over with it.
Just as soon as CCP puts in friendly fire. |

Now this is something i think we can all reasonably agree with. Why censor when you can just utterly destroy any chance of the troll trying to have fun. There are better ways to deal with these things in video games, after all what you all really want to do is sock this person in the nose so do it virtually.  |

Perhaps they're native to O+¢wi-Öcim and German nationals, so they use the German spelling?
And they're just having a party at home while playing DUST and suddenly someone butthurt gets this name banned... Poor guys. |

I don't understand why theres so much hype these days over things that happened about 70 years ago. What the ***** did was terrible yes, but theres a point where people have to move on. If I were to name my character based off any of the major empires that have risen and fallen in the last thousand years (which have no doubt also performed terrible deeds as well), would I get this much flak for it??
For example.... if I named myself "Vlad the Impaler" Would I get reported because my name is the same as a king who, for pleasure, had massive spikes plowed through people while they were still alive?? In my opinion the brutality showed between both the ***** and vlad were on a similar level, yet I doubt I would get in trouble for using vlad as a name.
In fact the only difference these days is that people have a few grandparents/ great grandparents who "lived when it happened" but that's kind of a mute point anyway because I doubt anyone who is 70 and older is actually playing this game to begin with. So what then? its offensive to jews? I mean I guess you can justify that but again I want to just tell me to to "move on"...... |
