I was playing Hero Assult and a guy Named Colon Cancer was on, then another person said change the name because its offensive? Shouldn't that be an ok name?

Ehhhh....That's no worse than 'Rectal Disease'. I've heard much worse like racist names, handicapped/religious names that are insulting or using some evil dictator's name.

Thats what I said. They did not care they thought it was disrespectful and cruel

I hate it when people use religious names... I think it is very disrespectful, but it is not against the rules (unfortunately).

It's not as if the name was "Colon Cancer is funny". Their name is just the name of a disease. There's no statement or opinion about cancer expressed in the name so how could it be disrespectful? Just because it might remind somebody of a death in their family doesn't make it malicious or inappropriate. To state it's one or the other would only be a supposition. As long as a name doesn't have banned words in it, it should be allowed.

If we banned names like that, we'd have to ban SWINE FLU too.
