Well, I personally think that prohibited (rude/offensive) words should apply to user names as well. Just thought I'd suggest this because I have seen a few others say similar things on another thread today.

Anyone agree with me?

Thanks, Ben.

@Philly

EDIT: I don't mind swearing, or swear words, I just find it silly that it's fine for peoples usernames to have it, but they can't even say the word..​

The words that are prohibited now should also be prohibited in usernames. They are prohibited for a reason. Users should feel safe here, and not have to deal with certain words.

@California, you need to calm down.

People who get harassed with it daily shouldn't have to deal with it here. This is supposed to be a welcoming place for all users. Plus, it makes the forum look low quality and un-professional. That doesn't matter, though, because the word filters will never change, according to staff.

I agree with this. But I don't really see active users with usernames like that.

That's not offensive. If it were n***** or something I could see this being more reasonable.

Fair enough on that, but if the word c unt is prohibited in threads, why isn't it prohibited as usernames?

Meh. Philly would probably have to manually do it. Prohibiting that word just limits my arsenal. I don't really care either way, to be honest.
