Fan Names

[Hakeem]

Can we get a rule or something to get rid of these names?
Like, "We reserve the right to change your name if it is in any way related to Naruto."
Or, "If your name is in any way related to Naruto you can request a change for free, as a mercy to the rest of our users."

Freedom of speech and expression; let them keep it as it violates no site rules.
While I am not pro naruto, I don't think we should suspend the rights of those who are. Naruto is hardly comparable to something banned, like Nazism, despite how much you want to say so

That's a very stupid rule IMO. I have seen no forums changing other people's name because it's "unoriginal" whatsoever. I'm a fan of Santa Claus, does that mean that the name Santa has to be removed from my name? That's nonsense.

Lol, really really stupid idea.
Like i couldnt have my nickname then cus im a fan of noodles? lol xD

I can see the motivation behind it, but it's a rather stupid rule, because you can usually tell stupid people from their outrageously stupid names.

Santa is actually the word for saint in at least Spanish.

Mostly (exclusively?) it's for Naruto names. I for one would like to see less Sasuke962's.

So now you decide to discriminate a group of people you don't like. I don't care how much you hate Naruto and its fanboys (I don't like them either) but using that as a reason to make them change their names, that's very stupid. If you don't like them, just ignore them, no need to even make a thread about it.

This thread just fails horribly and should be closed.

 

[HappyTauren]

Yes, but there is a reason to it. It is ANNOYING.

 

[DesKaladA]

yes its really annyoing to have to listen to people named "Saksakkai9943" or "naototuoisbuerbanme"

 

[SantaBla]

someone is annoying by what he says, NOT what his name is.

 

[HappyTauren]

Do you think its awesome when we are all in chat and get "Please welcome our newest member, SasukeUchiha6463"
Then we ALL KNOW that he is either going to make a thread in map development making "the naruto map that doesnt suck" or go to request section requesting naruto models without EVEN LOOKING at stickies.

 

[SantaBla]

Are you the king of assumptions or what? You assume that every naruto fan is a narutard AND WILL request for naruto models. Even if the chances are high, you can't predict the future. Also, I don't really see what's the problem if they try to make a naruto map. We're not forced to play it or even reply to his thread. Those who want does. The rest can just ignore it.
You mainly get annoyed when he starts doing these actions that piss you off, not when the person created the username.

The real question is: Should this rule be implemented or no?
My answer is NO and I don't know any forums that's stupid enough to implement it anyway.

 

[brad.dude03]

There is no such thing as assumptions with these types. Hoenstly, anyone who EVER comes in here with a naruto or dbz name is not hanging around, all they want are models or a map dev thread. That's just the way it is.

 

[DesKaladA]

Brad you forgot one

once they get what they want they submit it 100 times then start screaming FUCK YOU when i dont approve it becuase it WONT EVAN RUN

 

[Dr Super Good]

No such rule will ever be implimented unless the owners of the series (EG Naruto) threaten to sue us or atleast ask nicely if we could change all usernames related to that series to something else.

 

[HappyTauren]

I hope they do

 

[DesKaladA]

same

GOD my tung burns curse you pepper juse

Naruto japanese names like for example "XxItachi904Uchiha88xXx" are just stupid. Names like "Frostmourne91" or something are more acceptable I think because they have to do with warcraft. I think any name with "sephiroth" in it should be banned too

 

[brad.dude03]

Yeah god-damned Final Fantasy nerds.

 

[donut3.5]

I despise their lacks of creativity, but still, banning them isn't a positive step for anything. A name is a name, that's it. As long as it isn't offensive (and you'll have to try better than whining that it's annoying), then there is no reason to restrict it.
I don't like it when people show up with all the same naruto name, but it's their own choice, and if we can't accept that, tough shit for us.
Hell, if you're all for banning naruto names, then we might as well ban almost all names, since they pretty much originated from a liking of something.
HT, Taurens, me, Donut from RvB, etc. etc. Doesn't mean we should restrict the rights of users for liking a goddamn TV show, or game, or book, or whatever just because we share a different opinion.

That's an assumption. Honestly, you don't know everyone. I think you guys are all just overreacting.

 

[Elenai]

I have a fan name...I call him charlie, he's my best friend. ^^

Seriously...naruto fan names are ridiculous.

Did I say I hate Naruto? No I didn't.
Furthermore, I watch Naruto.
But you don't see me using it as my name, of even talking about it, besides 4 posts, as of press time, 3 of which are in this thread.

If you don't like them, just ignore them, no need to even make a thread about it.

This thread just fails horribly and should be closed.

When I make a thread with a poll, the poll is usually the thing I care about most, if not exclusively.

Doesn't mean we should restrict the rights of users for liking a goddamn TV show, or game, or book, or whatever just because we share a different opinion.

It's not because I don't share their opinions that I would rather they used better names.

 

[Teh_Ephy]

I'll admit that it does get hard to differentiate between all the Sasuke fans.
