I will no longer stay silent and be part of a community that allows a mans human rights to be violated. How could blizzard not have had the foresight to avoid this situation. Seriously your going to censor dong when the most handsomest player not named bisu and greatest player not named flash is named Jaedong. I dont know how many people it will take to get this fixed but im expecting over 9000 signatures.

Also this thread was created with "Ee Han Timing"

If you're going to make a petition for something like that, at least get someone who can present the case in a more formal manner.

They wouldn't let NesTea use the ZergBong name. Why would they change their mind for JD?
If you make no mistake, yet still lose - you don't understand the game. Spiral out, keep going.

Dong is a banned ID word by Blizzard, I think.

He has picked ID 'JD' after joining T8.

First televised match under new ID 26.11.2011.

Stop spreading misinformation.

I heartfully sign with you on this but I've got a question. How is DongRaeGu's name not censored? Or is his name just DRG.

I agree. I think it's incredibly insensitive of Blizzard, which is funny since they supposedly care so much about the Korean market.

I believe it has since been unblocked, I've seen a guy named ZergBong on the EU ladder.

Checking SC2Ranks, there are a couple JaeDongs on the EU ladder as well, lol.

Perhaps it's only on the Korean client ?

Haha that's pretty funny, me and the other idiots trolls in 'Northern Ireland Global Starcraft' get to use that acronym on Bnet :S

Even if "dong" was allowed, Jaedong's registered name under KeSPA is JD. So he would be using that ID unfortunately.

Similar to how Baby is TY, Sun is Rain, etc etc etc.
