Title: Offensive CPID
Post by: Tjay on January 10, 2002, 05:28:00 PM: The Bishes have a new kid on trial sub with callsign SikFuk. It may not be technically illegal but is causing offense. He has been repeatedly requested to change it by several people tonight (thurs) but refuses. Can or should HT take action plse?

And anyone with a callsign from TOP GUN, ban or make them pay double the rate.

Post by: Creamo on January 10, 2002, 08:28:00 PM: I think he's refering as well to say "Jewkilla" type callsigns that were a problem and discussed long ago. None of which are as nearly as bad as TOPGUN wannabe's, but equally uncalled for. Originality is nice too...

Fats, people have been kicked for much more civil handles than that- but they were still borderline tasteless and stupid.

Pimpjoe, you should be fine. If it were squeakSlap, that'd be something different.

We all pay $15 for a service, we don't pay $15 to run retardedly amock in the arena with rediculously stupid handles.

That, and many people here are parents or have kids who fly this game, and for $15/mo for entertainment, I don't think anyone wants to see some retard who's vocab is limited to the curse words he heard on the playground allowed to interfere with their entertainment. Especially when it's a 2week freebee account.

I hope squad 'Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo' is left untouched.

In WWII the original name for the Blacksheep Squadron was going to be 'Boyington's Bastards' but it got canned by the NAVY.

Anyone who dares join squad F.U.C.K can contact me privately.

Are you say that you feel the above nick is appropriate for a privately owned online service for which we all pay to participate in?

I hope you are not.

The most frequently misspelled word I see on this board is ridiculous from the root ridicule from the Latin ridere: to laugh.
Sorry...had to slip this in here...bugs the crap outta me everytime I see it. :)

Post by: J_A_B on January 12, 2002, 03:48:14 PM: It's a dang shame that AH's design permits people to use names such as the above names, yet I can't use "J_A_B"

I figure I'll finally get to use my actual name around version 1.4 or so. Only another 5 years to go!

Yep, quite easily done, I'm told. ;)
I don't see how a question - asking for other peoples' opinions can be a whine, but there you go...
Otherwise, thanks to all who replied. I guess the consensus is that enough people find it offensive for those using similar CPIDs to be made to change them.
