Would GMs please review the following user names ...

... to decide if they're appropriate?

"Sinep Drah" (spell it backwards)
"Fuks"

I don't want to start another censorship debate, just after a ruling one way or the other as to whether they are suitable.

thanks,

Look, I don't want to be a whiner, but I've just been asked to report "Biggus Dickus" (by yet another user who seems to think I'm a GM (!).

Can we have a comment from someone who really is a GM as to "appropriate choice of user names"?

Any chance I can have a "Not GM" cap? :)

Thanks.

The name "Biggus Dickus" might seem to be an inappropriate name.

However, it is a name invented by "Monty Python" and used in the film "Life of Brian" to make fun of a certain Roman guy.

I am afraid we can't forbid that name.

Oh yes:
And Sinep Drah has already been deleted.

Speaking of UberKalimero, he's been trolling the forums using both his normal account, and "Inspector Shameless". He's even used them both to try and corner people into a flame war. Could you please do something about this?

I've talked to UberKalimero about his actions on the forums not long ago. If he still continues to act in an inappropriate manner, please let the GM team know, we'll do something about it.

It is not a discussion forum, that's true, but why none of GMs has enought of balls to simply drop a padlock or move it elsewhere?
