    I spent a good $100+ on prem, boxes and trigrams. I deserve to be treated equally and so does Jesus.

    Oh, you wanna play that game huh?

    Blitz
    A period during WW2 when England was bombed extensively. Could be seen as insensitive to the horror of the period. Since the word only came into common use because of the Nazi's blitzkrieg, that puts it on par with Hitler.

    Cronk
    Can pertain to various things, including drinking.

    Also FYI.
    Acidhedz is a reference to Sony's Acid Music Studio software, which was my first DAW. And since it's a common word, it cannot be trademarked or copyrighted.
    Beyond that I never used it in a drug related manner, except as a joke. I only use it's proper meaning of a substance that has low PH.

    ASS U ME

    If you were even half as smart as you think you are, you would have pointed out that Jesus (Hey-zeus) is a common name in South and Central American culture. So getting rid of someone's account for using it could be taken as discrimination against said cultures.

    Better way to save his name was> "¿Que? No hable ingles!"
    Not to search trademark rights in online gaming, where everybody chose some name from existing/interesting characters...

    Hey Acid, did you not read the part where Blitz said he had to change his name? Not because of your reason, but because it's a character from another game? Or did you just ignore that part so you could go off on one of your rants again?

    He reads only what he wants to read Dark. Can't be much point in trying to make it known, he simply won't understand if he can't read words in front of his face.

    Still waiting for some action to be taken against the hermit card exploiters, who the hell cares about what names people are using. It's a game, names are (with in the reasons of stupidity) harmless, where are intentional exploiters aren't.

    Get priorities correct thanks.

    No I didn't see that, and considering it's one short line at the very bottom of his post, it's not all that hard to see how I could over look it.

    How about you? Did you ever stop to consider that I just over looked that single, small, sentence, or did you just feel a need to take a cheap shot at me?

    I came up with my name years ago. It belongs to me. It has never had anything to do with the drug, except as an occasional joke. He made an assumption. One that is very much in error. Trying to get me in trouble. I have no reason to treat this act with any degree of mercy.

    Unfortunately whatever way you look at it, "Acidhedz" could easily be a 'drug related name' that contravenes the terms of service. We'll see what the ticket says.

    It can only be taken in that way if you already know that slang term. And just because it can be taken that way, doesn't mean it is to be, or should be.
    From what Dark said you got caught using the name of something that's trademarked, which has no defensible explanation.

    I have stated the meaning of my name, and it is not breaking any rules. If they were to remove every single name that COULD be taken in a way that is against the rules, half the people here would need to change theirs'.

    DarkFireGoth could be seen as some sort of "evil" name, trying to scare people.
    I'm manic-depressive. Should I get offended by 'BipolarTuna"?
    I had to look it up to jog my memory, but Spite was the name of a short-lived comic book villain. It is also a hateful sort of name.

    You got caught breaking the rules and now you're trying to get as many other people in trouble as you can. I believe in the common vernacular what you're doing would be referred to as "a ***** move."

    Further, you're off on at least a few others.

    Ali Baba (and the 40 thieves) is a story from 1001 Arabian Nights, and cannot be trademarked.
    Wicked is a common word, and cannot be trademarked.
    A Drug is anything that you put in your body that isn't for nutrition. Tylenol is a Drug, so it isn't a direct reference to anything illegal.
    Genocide, while not a particularly nice name, is no more specific than Spite.
    Demigod is a category of deity, not a specific name.
    Bandido is a general term for a mexican bandit, particularly ones in movies.

    The reason for doing this is not to act smart but because someone we know was forced to change their name for the same reasons as above so why shouldn't this happen to everyone?
