Bangalore FNG audio line

EA i want to report Bangalore FNG audio line as is against your own TOS

The term "Fckuking New Guy" (FNG) is a derogatory term, made popular within combatants, military chaplains, and combat medics of the U.S. Army and the U.S. Marine Corps deployed to South East Asia during the Vietnam War, usually to refer to newcomers.

The reason why i m doing this is because i got banned for 3 days from apex for having the name (idontgiveafeck)

Hello,

We want to notify you that we found your ID, idontgiveafeck, to be in violation of our User Agreement.

We have temporarily renamed your username to “chgid2005294”. You can change this to an alternative name by following the steps in this article: https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/if-you-forgot-your-ea-account-id-or-password/

With this latest violation, we are suspending your account for 72 hours effective immediately.

 

féck meaning in the Irish culture

2. It's also used as a pretty mild swear word in Ireland.
It's used a) to express that you're pissed off or b) to describe somebody who pissed you off.
It's not related to the word 'fcku', and doesn't have any sexual undertones, so is acceptable for polite company.

  • I see nothing wrong here.

    You violated the User Agreement set by EA and YOU signed it when creating your account to play on any EA title.

    You can easily read up on these things or just ask before hand if a specific term or phrase is in direct violation with any agreement set by any company.

    Having an audio line in a game that corresponds with a characters background and occupasion does not violate anything if not stated by the game itself which is doesn't. The game is 16+, your profile name goes beyond the boundries of the game, therefore in direct violation.

  • @Sp4ceb4lls Apex needs to take some advice from Yogurt and work on Merchandising!

    We need Apex Legends, the toilet paper

    That is the mentality of an hypocrite.

    If interpreting initial claim to be invalidated by the prior act of signing said user agreement, constitutes a mind of hypocrisy, then the hand that signed it inherently concedes entirely by having committed the original act of contradiction by said signing then applying said name. 

    That being said,  some character content is undeniably derogatory & belittling by definition, and some are more direct than others about it.. Crypto's "idiot" line, Bangalores FNG line, etc, etc..., , Without any enforcement to those ends, many more would have to make a similar claim for any acknowledgement of, let alone change.

    Character content does has limitations. Character continuity in no way constitutes a freedom to develop characters with complete disregard. 

  • @Feudstamps The game itself comes with advisory warnings though does it not?

    Whereas when creating an EA account, which can be used across a multitude of EA games of mixed age ratings then something like a username must conform to the guidelines set.

    There isn't any hypocrisy really when you look at it from that perspective.
