Offensive username?
My club name is AKISUPREMACISTS (I set it as that as a joke and thought I could change it later which I now realize I cannot) but I’ve had it as that for a while and I got an email saying it were off...

@WreckingVi if I think a user name is offensive I will report it. Up to respawn to decide if they consider it offensive enough to ban, not me. I was not referring to childish and stupid in those terms, as in I don't report childish and stupid usre names, more that it is childish and stupid to use an offensive name in the first place. Apex is not a place to use rasist or derogatory or inflamitory usernames for fun, or worse to incite hatred, and I'm delighted they are working on cleaning out the trash.
@OldTreeCreeper The topic is not whether racist,derogatory and/or inflamitory usernames should be banned it's whether the system they put in place is a good system to have to deal with this. We all agree that terms that are obviously out of line should be punished but terms like gay,lesbian,simp and any other terms that aren't exactly offensive should be considered a warnable offense. That's why we keep repeating context is important.
@Daze623 you and I have thicker skins than others and would not be offended by some words used. Others may not have such thick skins. I have seen many threads about toxic behaviour and clearly this move is a response to that. Is it over the top, maby. Will it change behaviour, yes imo. Perhaps when the behaviour changes things will be relaxed.
