Offensive names - and EA support literally doesn’t care
Playing clubs is always interesting, as you’ll always come across someone thinking a certain name might be “funny’. So, reporting an offensive avatar name yesterday, EA support once again, simply ignores it, as they say it’s fine.
So EA officially is ok with:
- references to Adolf * or fascist WWII people, phonetically to sound like it, so letters changed slightly
- references to sexual predators and paedophiles - alone yesterday 2x Jimmy Savile + likeness
- racial slurs or references to severe sicknesses
According to EA this it’s fine and they won’t act, as it doesn’t violate their Positive Play Charter.
So - EA thinks that the above is part of positive play. This would make a great story on gamesindustry or any other gaming site.

Live support is not the place to raise inappropriate usernames when the game in question has an in-game report function.
