Hi,
Received such message upon logging in -
"Your Club Name has been reset due to offensive content. Please rename your Club. Further violations may result in action against your account."
My club name was "Ladies First" I am missing something here? ahah. Has to be some sort of a mistake or bug right? Otherwise I am not sure what is considered to be offensive now.
Please help?

cheers for heads up. facepalming hard rn. guess will rename my club to random numbers, just in case. haha
As you can see in my SS, it says that "the name it may be used to harass / offend other players". So, with other words, the filter is s*it.
I understand your frustration and that's why I took the liberty of replying to your message. You'll never get a concrete answer, because they don't know what's offensive in 2026 either.
Probably, as I wrote above, the word "ladies" activated the bot and gave you a warning, even if you weren't misogynistic in any way. I'll change my club name to "ladies first" too and let you know what happens.

Great, thank you.
Now back to the initial questions.
1. How is it offensive if I am advocating for women's rights + it does not violate any rules or policies.
2. Who or what flags it? In either case, whether it is machine/human there is a solution. Either adjust the filtering system or have a team meeting, 121 or whatever and explain that such combination of words does not violate any rules.
Some would even argue that treating such phrase as offensive could be seen as a misogynistic take from EA side
All I want is to be able safely and freely play with that club name, which I will repeat once more, is not offensive by nature.
Thank you.
Community ManagerNot a bot.
"Ladies First" is probably not a good idea, as that was the Club name that was flagged initially. EA_Barry.
sall42 Cheers,
Feels like it, yes.. (what you said about their attitude towards community).
At this point I am just curious if I am talking to a real human being or AI bot. As this community manager cannot respond to a simple question and keeps copy pasting templated answers.
You as somebody who is not even a support, let alone COMMUNITY MANAGER gave me more useful info :D.
Oh well.
Hello, TimTheGameBoss! They don't give a s*it about community and what they want. They can't fix a easy bug, like the transfer list one, it's almost a week by now. For me, "Ladies First" is not offensive. I had over the years, names more offensive than " Ladies First". Probably is a fake flag by the AI, but personally i won't risk it.

Thank you for your reply.
Is "Ladies First" offensive for example? I was thinking about changing my club name to that one.
Thank you in advance.
Community ManagerChange the Club Name to something else inoffensive and you should be okay. EA_Barry.
Hello,
Could you please share any updates on this?
