Thread: Ban this option.

  1. #1

    Default Ban this option.

    I say we should ban the option to have numbers in names. There's too many Rikku9238487's and Yuna32141's around, it's getting confusing.

    If you don't agree with me, well than I'll shutup and leave it.

    I agree. People need to be more original in their names. Why not names like Squall_Humps_Riona? Thats an awesome name!

    I agree. I don't think what I say REALLY matters, but I still agree with you all the same. Although I admit I'd like to take it farther, and ban names with FFcharacters in them as well. It's not much better. That could be just me though.

    Okay, how about not only numbers, but also "_"'s and any FF-character names? (i.e. xxxCloudxxx) I don't know.

    Anyways not like it matters too much to everyone, I guess. So I'll just leave it.

    I just put numbers in mine out of habit. By the time I realized what I was doing, It was too late.

    How about we ban people from beginning their names with lower-case letters too? And no known characters at all. You are not Spaceman Spiff! How dare you! Yes, I like that.

    The cleansing has begun...

    But not with this.

    We are not going to restrict people's usernames in such rediculous ways. That's so freaking anal I could just flick every one of you who think that's an acceptable idea.

    Well, it does seem to be a bit too much of a censorship thing for me to support.

    But on the other hand all these unoriginal names are REEEAAALLLYYY freakin' annoying.
