I imagine that it would be case by case, because I know I have seen some usernames that I was surprised to see actually get registered in the past. Lets be honest, you can do a lot worse than holy penis.
I think those, worse usernames just tend to be PBUs with a grudge to settle, at least in my experience. The only other users I could find with that ban reason were JesusNeverGotLaid and Progaymer

Well religious discussion is pretty heavily moderated on this forum. It just will derail threads with what happens when I accept the holy penis into me. We can't have every thread he posts in getting derailed with religion.
That's the real reason his name is unacceptable.

User was warned for this post
User was banned for this post. I don't even... Actually the google translation of what he said sums my feelings up quite accurately: "Although I do not know what to say, but it feels very powerful way" Google translate has improved a lot over the years, that's a pretty good translation Also, for context On August 05 2013 14:59 holy penis wrote: hope your band will make a differience but the victory is still belonging to chinese! and world players need chinese bands to bring something new ok that still doesn't explain anything I think he's wishing GL to Liquid but also believes that Chinese teams are the best, to the point where the rest of the world relies on them for innovative play. Could be way off though. ;s
Damn, I thought he was cheering for China against Liquid in some sort of battle of the bands.

That guy's name reminds me of the Bigfatjiji debacle LOL. Also, did the DotA 2 for sc2 players thread close? I saw that Firebolt made a blog concerning his stream and the general sc2 population.

Relevant also because a guy named "ASS_JOY" just appeared in my feed I think as long as they aren't openly offensive against group or individual or full of moronic / random digits, they can pass. Fortunately, many of bad nicknames are already banned.

PORNO_SATAN nooooo 
Why oh why must it be this way 
|
|
all the 2010 guys were tdot, iirc.
|
PORNO_SATAN is an alias of at least one ABLer in the IRC channel for this thread. My theory is when Mr. PBU joined out channel the other day, he saw this name. That, or PORNO_SATAN is a "thing" now and I'm just really out of touch with whatever moronic internet trend I don't know.
|
I WOULD LOVE TO POST ON A FORUM IN REPLY TO SOMEONE NAMED PORNO_SATAN

PORNO_SATAN is either archas or jaaaaasper.

PORNO_SATAN was banned in april of 2008, archas saw it a while back and found it funny, adopts the nickname sometimes for fun. Case closed.

Rofl at PORNO_SATAN, the all-caps give it even more quaint charm. I thought my friend Horsebanger had the best nick on TL, but that one has to take that crown.

I like the subtlety of the ID Horsebanger. With PORNO_SATAN you at least wonder what's behind that devilish mystery. Horsebanger... well, he bangs horses.

Or does heroin. Looked up the fugs ban to see some insanity but it wasn't that kind of "get help" thingy. Or maybe it was, but not.

I'm not afraid to say that I've mutilated myself over this thread several times.
Goddamnit people first you're hurting esports and before you know it you're hurting actual people too. Wait what?
