I didn't know where to put this but this issue has been bugging me for a very long time. I find that the way that badlion staff handle with muting people is very unfair compared to how people with very offensive names are allowed on the server. People like autismboy and cancercurtis are people that i am talking about. Especially as i know many people who have cancer and my sister has mental problems. In my eyes people like autismboy are making fun of the fact that people have these issues. You can come back and say that it's allowed on the server, but just think about this! Imagine if you had a sibling with special needs. Then you saw someone with this name. How would you feel? Well i will tell you how i feel! It makes me extremely mad that people are mocking people with these problems. Hear my request badlion and put an end to these offensive names.Last edited on 30 September 2016 - 02:37 AM by RyanOyster
Yea +1, if you cant say it in chat you shouldn't be able to have it as your name.EDIT:
Names like "NiceHacks" are still ok in my opinion but just offensive names like "EzKYS" or "AutismKid"

I totally agree with this. Something you could do is report them for their inappropriate name.+1

Pretty sure any name with kys in it gets banned. If you report it, staff will take a look and see if its serious enough to banPosted on 01 October 2016 - 10:18 PM
this is true but i dont see how turboautism or autismboy are appropriate for minecraftPosted on 01 October 2016 - 11:16 PM

I agree too. I have been muted multiple times for saying "L" which in my eyes is no where near as bad as some people and their names. Names such as AutismBoy and cancercurtis etc. should not be allowed if there is a rule against calling people this. I agree that it is as if they are mocking or making fun of people who actually have these problems. Make them change their names or leave. +1Posted on 02 October 2016 - 04:28 AM
Thank you everyone who shares my beliefs!Posted on 02 October 2016 - 05:12 AM
+1Words like autism, cancer, and other disabilities that are unpreventable should overall be socially unacceptable, with the word retarded being close to that realm; the word retarded was initially used in the phrase Mentally Retarded, thus implying that they had a mental disability. In my opinion and in many others', it's wrong to use a genuine disability as an insult, as that puts those who are mentally ill and/or retarded below people without mental disabilities, and while that may be true in some cases, I still don't see it as a fair use of the word.

I actually agree to this+1

Keep in mind that banning someone from the server is significantly harsher than simply muting them, and we need a very good reason to do so.Current guidelines for banning for inappropriate names are very vague. Hopefully they'll be improved with time.

This is very true but they can go change their namesPosted on 02 October 2016 - 11:10 PM
-1 There is a difference between "autismboy/cancercurtis" and something like "autism_iz_funny_lawl" unless the name is making fun of the disability/someone who has it or something along those lines, it should be allowed.Posted on 07 October 2016 - 03:22 AM
i disagree vaxd. Why does someone even need to have something like autism or cancer in their namePosted on 07 October 2016 - 07:54 AM

Indeed, people that are banned for innapropriate usernames are unbanned when they change it to an appropriate one. (I'm not sure thought)

Usernames like that are often choosen to make fun of these people, unless it's a supportive username.
