Not the only person this has happened to – I met somebody whose original first name referred to female anatomy – they changed the first name to something more tame, but when you pull up her profile, the original name is still there.

I think they didn’t change it not because they forgot, but because they CAN’T.

Lame either way.

“How, again, is the word ‘tizzers’ fit under the “broadly offensive” part of the ToS?”

You dont really get it… It’s ‘offensive’ to people up at the Lab. Might not be to you or the rest of the planet, it’s history has made it so.

Also, admit yourself; When choosing such a name, just like Cickmy Lunt, it’s purely to see how long it’ll last. And that’s exactly why LL prolly didnt like it.

Like poking a tiger with a stick and seeing when it’ll eat you.

BTW, politicslike ‘facism’ are always chugged about here and there.
That’s more than a little bit silly…
This isnt a country it’s a game. Or service, so you will. They can do what they want with it, it’s theirs and their investor’s to decide on what happens.
If Blizzard at one time would decide to off all dwarves in WoW, abandoning them as a playable race, will you talk about genocide as well? Compare them to nazi’s? Come on.

Some games are free and opensource. Communist bastards!

drama,
How, again, is the word ‘tizzers’ fit under the “broadly offensive” part of the ToS? Actually whats truly broadly offensive is FASCISM.

What’s the problem?

Didnt get enough attention from mommy and daddy?

It’s of course a very good way, pick a name that’s guaranteed to get Linden’s attention and then act all suprised if they act upon it. Like Intblubber did with the Tizzers name.

Bravo, you win one internets. Now go play outside.

Maybe if you people acted like adults once in a while you wouldn’t have these problems.

But by all means, make yourselves into victims.

That’s what bullies always do when they get nailed for something.

If Lunt’s name began with a C
….then he is indeed one.

I have to agree – it’s offensive
really really offensive.

Let me give Lunt a good slap for everyone

/slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap SLAP

yeah im a girl btw I KNOW ITS HARD TO BELIEVE

i was suspended and instructed to submit a ticket to change my name. i did and submitted several suggestions. when i logged in under my new name i found that my main profile page had the stuff deleted. it was a log from torley’s office hours where someone namedropped me. so i guess we know the real reason for the change, whoever ARed me was taken seriously and once they saw the log they didnt want to look stupid

LL breaking their own rules. Thats not a bug, thats ‘enhancing user experience’. CickMy Lunt was obviously a name that was overburdening the system with excessive frivolous abuse reports from idiotic PC busybodies, so they changed the name simply to reduce their administrative overhead.
