Bad Name - nooK!e - 11-21-2022

Hello all,
I hope that you are all well!

I would like to have such names blocked, should be possible, right? Smile

Can we block it? Yes we can. But do we have enough of a reason to block it?

The particular symbol used here is left facing swastika, the commonly used hate symbol is right facing swastika. But only the western countries see it as a hate symbol, the rest of the countries don't see it as such. That's because the symbol originates way before it was used in anti-Semitic context. To put this in some sort of analogy, imagine there is person that pretends to be an AA member and he behaves badly. If we follow the same logic that would mean that it would give the team a bad reputation, whilst the team has no connection with that person. Same could be said about that symbol, someone took it for their own symbol and gave it different meaning, while in no way being supported or approved by the ones that use the symbol or where the symbol originates from. That's why I personally think that we should not block it automatically, it should be handled on individual basis by a limad. If that person breaks the rules it can be banned from our servers or/and on LFS.

We have to remember that our servers are melting pot of various countries and cultures. We have people joining from various places of the world.
I would like to hear opinions from other members.

I fully agree, no actions needed here.
