@ClarkG27 My last name too this year somehow got flagged as offensive and I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Only thing I can think is my name could be related to an alcoholic drink. Name is "Bellini".

Thanks.

@EA_Barry 2k sports NBA 2k18 my first name was profane. Sent one message and it was fixed immediately. Stop being lazy and help these guys with a simple issue. Whole EA team needs to be changed out, this game is copy n pasted from last year yet some how worse
LAZY
- @EA_Barry Obviously we have to pick something else, I just want to know why suddenly after playing every year since eashl was implemented, suddenly my non-offensive last name is considered profane. I really have no clue how Bellini is considered profane.
Exactly! It should not be a hard fix and yet here we are. I would think the players being able to use their own name would be something worthy of fixing but I guess not. Love how our last names are offensive yet I played against somebody named “homeless Blackman” yesterday. My name is offensive but that’s all good in the eyes of the broken profanity system. Unreal.
EA_AljoHey, everyone. We're looking into names getting caught by the profanity filter that shouldn't be. I'll pass along the ones mentioned here, but if there are any others, feel free to let me know.
Thanks!
