Why is this explorer name permitted?
Was bashing some noobs in treaty when I noticed one of my teammates had an explorer name which should not be permitted, especially due to the offensive nature of the name.

Re: Why is this explorer name permitted?
It is not permitted but it is considered very unpolite by many people to use that word (the so called 'N-Word'). That is because quite a lot of people feel offended when they hear someone saying it. The reason for that is that the men who originally used that word ("invented it") did extremely brutal things to black people just because of the color of their skin. But it is not actually permitted to use that word, as long as you are not actually a racist, but use it more like a "joke" (a bad one ofc).
It is a matter of censoring, if you are allowed to see it, if someone writes it, or not.

reminds of the time Russian company Gazprom signed a joint venture to co-develop Gas fields and it was named NIGGAZ (as in Nigeria Gazprom JV). :)I_HaRRiiSoN_I wrote: ↑10 May 2023, 14:39when will people stop misspelling the lovely country of niger

It's possible that the funny person, to put it politely, used cyrilic E or similar to dodge the censors.juicyfruit1268 wrote: ↑10 May 2023, 06:52Was bashing some noobs in treaty when I noticed one of my teammates had an explorer name which should not be permitted, especially due to the offensive nature of the name.
