this might seem a little strange but i thought it would have already been in place, over the last couple of days we've had two racers join our servers with abusive licence names, is there a system in place to stop ppl using swear words for licence names now?

Do you mean racer names, or LFS usernames?

DK

lfs usernames/licence names

I would ban all of these members below, for instance. Well, there are more of these....I don't really know how to call them

Never thought that would be an issue before
Well, best be prepared then!

The system can't change names, so really I assume there is nothing we can do about those that already have foul names. I guess such a thing could be put into the system now to not let anyone else do it again, but.. the damage is done I believe.

How sad do you have to be to have such a screen name thought?

F***, F*** off, F***c*** and sh*t have never been online. Do people just pay £24 for fun?

Kicks and giggles, kicks and giggles!


Thats all they want is the attention haha!

Even if they bought S2, we have no right to take their names away

I can imagine the conversation:

F*** you: devs, give me my licence name back!
Devs: we don't tolerate such licence names
F*** you: I don't care, I paid for it, you stole all my monies! I'm going to take you to court! Or worse still, get my bigger brother to beat you up! He's 21!
Devs: oh f*** you!
F*** you: yes?
Devs: :doh:

Having searched on LFSW, there are

13 accounts containing f*ck
1 containing c**t
10 containing s*it
And a guy from Finland called "wanker".

Quote from duke_toaster :

1 containing c**t

i think theres more than that, i saw a guy with ,....... and wait for it ....... its dead funny......... james c**t .......like james hunt but really cleaver !

Might be his name???!

Who cares. Most (if not all) of those guys don't even have a license. Besides they are just words, no need to get all offended.

All??? Why the heck? Is that a joke? For example the german name "fuchs" means just "fox" and "fuchsbau" is "fox nest". And you don't even pronounce them such a way that you would mix them with the english F-word

But to the point...I think it was mentioned somewhere (when you create a new account) that abusive names will be banned/removed.
