Team name "inappropriate reference"

HERE'S WHY:

While reviewing your account, we saw:

NHL 23

NHL Name : Mister Flugie,Abbreviation:FLU

We consider this to be Inappropriate Reference - Drugs and Alcohol.

YOU CAN STILL PLAY, BUT NEXT TIME WE MAY PLACE RESTRICTIONS ON YOUR ACCOUNT AND TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY REVOKE YOUR ACCESS TO CERTAIN OR ALL EA SERVICES.

Really? How in the world is Mister Flugie or FLU a reference to drugs and alcohol? How about not letting people report others if you don't actually investigate the report and just automatically assume what they reported is correct.

Please dispute this with ToS. I've raised the issue and they'll investigate it when they get your dispute.

@hippie71

We were able to trigger renaming your team so you should be good to go. Please reach out again if there are any other issues. Thanks!

I got the same email yesterday, but I was unable to change my name so does that mean I could get reported again for the same thing? I’m happy to change it but it’s not even possible I really don’t wanna get suspended or banned

I thought you had nothing to do with TOS? Why does he get special treatment?

Likely because lately, the team name bans have been incredibly off-base.
