he's just... don't worry

I'm pretty sure he goes under JD now.

Is there a list of banned words? Several people said that they had reported me for my nickname, i want to check if it is forbidden.

Wiki's source for that is the article: "The Clbuttic Mistake: When obscenity filters go wrong President Abraham Lincoln was buttbuttinated by an armed buttailant after a life devoted to the reform of the US consbreastution."
Buttbuttinate might be the funniest sounding word ever, even more so than pumperknickel or kumquat. My sides hurt because I can't stop laughing.

blizzard went way to far in their censorship, i agree with them in banning words like nigger and faggot but the game is PG-16 and banning Dong, Bong and most other words is just dumb.
Signed.

There is no such thing as an account name being taken on battlenet 2.0

i thought the name was banned because of bong's affiliation with drugs

I signed this! Jaedong deserves it, at least.

Ah yes! The infamous online petition and general petitioning. May I ask, has it yet worked for any of the following?

I think that bong in Korean was translated as boy or kid? I may be wrong but I think it meant ZergBoy or something.

Do people really care that much? It's just a name. People use aliases in games all the time. I don't expect Blizzard to give him any special treatment. This is a new game, new rules.

This is pretty silly considering what a huge amount of actual Korean names contain the word dong in them.
I support your cause though! *Unzips pants*
