Banned Player Name Discussion?
Hello!
Is there any way to open a discussion up with a human employee at EA with regards to 'unusable' player names?
Thanks,

Community ManagerThere is not really any discussion, if a name is detected as profanity etc. then you need to choose something else.
Understandable, but my username isn't profanity.
I'd be happy to explain to reasoning behind the name in a private conversation.

So what about his name is “profanity?” Of course I don’t expect an actual response because that’s the EA way, but I really am generally curious.
The first word in his name being slang for a woman's genitals would be my guess. I don't find it personally offensive, but I'm not shocked it's on a list somewhere.
As for the inconsistency, I don't have the impression EA uses a single profanity filter across all their games and forums. They probably should, but redundancies like that sometimes happen in large companies.
@PlayoffError Not true!
Take off the N and Y at the end and put a T there and then,.....Yeah,taht would be vulgar and profane!Edit: Removed offensive content. -CM
