A few minutes ago I was watching an SC2 stream and just participating in chat with a few other people when out of the blue, I get banned for my username(same one as this)? I mean... the only reason I have it is because I thought I'd get a few laughs, but I never thought it to be offensive...

I'm sort of angry right now, but I'm starting to think that maybe I should start using a different username for websites. What do you guys think?

Obviously some usernames will have stronger connotations/effects on people than others (case in point my own) but you should avoid words that can be openly offensive to others...

"FetusFondler ", no offence, but that sounds like the nickname of a coathanger in planned parenthood.

Maybe something a bit less... uhh controversial?

You'll find that, generally, TL isn't a place where cheap laughs are appreciated if they're also offensive cheap laughs. I suspect this has something to do with the fact that TL isn't 4chan, but that's just a guess.

the guy who banned you probably thought it was funny to dislike your name, or maybe he was a very serious person.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

Honestly, the moment I see your name I think you are a troll, especially in stream chats where trolls thrive.

If you want to change your name on TL go here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=3398

Your name isnt funny at all and really the only accomplishment is that its offensive to some people. I suspect you're a troll or quite young.

Well, let me be clear, I have no intention of changing the username here on TL unless approached by a mod (even then, I'd seriously reconsider staying on TL). And I can assure you, I was not doing anything troll-related.

I'm sorry you feel that way, but "funny" is subjective and you can't really claim what is or isn't funny, right? And I assure you, I didn't do anything troll-like, and even if I were young, is that bad? Just because someone is young, doesn't really prove anything.

I don't remember exactly what the guy said, just kept going on and on about how he hated my name and eventually kicked me out of the chat, which also completely screwed up the stream ><

Yeah, you're right. I guess it is kind of my fault for assuming that most people would share my sense of humor, but I guess for the most part, I would rather hope to make someone laugh and apologize to someone who was offended. Maybe this is the wrong line of thinking, huh?

Sorry for that. I get a very disturbing image that pops up into my head whenever I think of Taeyang... hehe. Just kidding :D

Hmm, I'm sorry you feel that way. Well, if it's any consolation, when I did make the name I had no intention of it to be disgusting.

I don't consider them "weak stomache ppl", some people just don't really like it. But I don't like it when those people, who don't like my name, subject other people to their views/opinions.

Hahaha, well that's not exactly what I had in mind... I honestly just thought the two words together just seemed hilarious to me.
And I figure, something is or isn't controversial, there really isn't any middle ground. To me at least.

I mean... all words can be offensive in the right (or wrong?) context. Like if I were a loser and I read that your name was "Loser777" I might be offended by it. Not that I am, just anything can be construed enough so that it's meaning is distorted. But I understand what you're saying, and sorry I used your name as an example ><

^^Pretty much my thoughts as well.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

speaking of names, yours makes me imagine a cartoon about ursadon and his friends the kakuru and that black panther thing trying to survive the best they can when those evil terrans zerg and protoss are bopping each other everywhere they go
