This guy is going to be banned or WHAT!?!?
 

Hey

I just came on the forums and i see a guy just a new member called Hitler.
Don't think people are very happy with this.
I cant acces his user profile but i hope he gets banned~

- Tim ,

I like him. He has a right to his name, as I can't see it being offensive. Everyone else uses it.

Alcar...

Just because he uses the name of a Nazi dictator from over 60 years ago doesn't mean he should be banned.

That sounds a bit sarcastic doesn't it? Well, it's not :).

Well, I just want to look at it as some idiot trying to get kicks out of a dicator's name. And what a time to sign up! With all these threads involving the NAzi's and such.

Yeah that's what I was going to say. I don't see how his name would be any kind of accurate reflection of his character.

I doubt he'll post anyways.

Yeah, a lot of new members seldom post here after they join. Or never post here for that matter.

It's about time Jacob made a friend here...

Don't ban him until he starts being a dick.

Why don't we ban Jacob now?

Umm... Because he's awesome?

Meh. His name is Hitler. Actually, to be precise, it's hitler, without the capital, so it's not a name, it's just a foreign object!

Who cares what your name is on a forum? On the Christian forums linked from exposingsatanism.org , I called myself 'Evolved Ape', and only got banned because of my behaviour.

...was that a good example?

Agreed. Our resident neonazi could use another neonazi, because lets face it, there just aren't enough of them in the world. :) Yay for neonazi. ^_^ Hooray.

I try not to behave like a total idiot. but still, there maybe a couple of forumers who want me banned.

... What has that got to do with anything?

You can't ban someone because of their screen name.
It's only a name, you shouldn't take offense to it.

I don't know, wasn't oddworldsuckscock banned because of his name?

Yea, but it contains words that are not allowed :P

So hitlersuckscock would be banned. But not just hitler. Brilliant!

Well, it's not for me to decide, but personally i think he should get banned, because it's clearly that he chose that name to bash on the jews or something like that.

Meh, I don't think anything can be said to be clear about him unless he posts.

On a sort of related note, has anyone noticed we have a new CYBER SLIG?

Yeah, But it's not Cyber-slig, cos i talked to him on MSN... The new CYBER SLIG should get his name changed :S

Perhaps it's his real name. History may not be his parents strong point.

:lol: That could be true though, I heard people say that they thought the Holocaust was in the 1800's.

:spam: Heh, I just noticed that the username 'Abe' isn't taken. :lol:

Who cares what the name is? Unless it contains words that are unsuitable for the younguns, it shouldn't matter. WHatt matters is how this person acts.

All this hubbub over someone who hasn't posted once. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I don't think my name is anything special. I think it all lies in either the kind of posts someone makes or their avatar.

I think you're completely and utterly wrong, and you're being highly unreasonable.

Let me put this to you; how in the name of a smelly jelly do you have the right to make an authoratitive judgement on a person's character by simply reading his name and recognising it as being the SURNAME of an evil nazi dictator from more than 60 years ago? There actually are other people in Germany who's surname is Hitler yet bear absolutely no poltical likeness to Adolf Hitler.

Would it be as bad if his user name was 'Adolf'?

Anyway, everyone should stop worrying over a guy who isn't an active member.

That annoys me, these non active mebers, I swear we have one new member a day.

Why does it annoy you, dear used?
If they're not active, how can you come into contact with them?

Because they just randomnly sign up and don't even show up. It's ****ing ridiculous, and will you PLEASE go flame someone else?

Uh I said that i think, i didn't say it was a fact. But really, why would he use the name "hitler" then? Ok, maybe he has his own reasons, but he's not even active, so i guess we should worry about it anyways.

I was going to let your response drop, even if it was incoherent, but then you had to go and suggest I was flaming you by saying 'dear used'.
I'm almost tempted to actually flame you.

So, people who join but don't post inherently annoy you because it's ridiculous?
Odd. Personally, I didn't even know such people existed, because I don't tend to check out the forum statistics. They don't interest me, not are they relevant.

Why do you automatically assume that he has a reason? Or that it is in fact a he? Does one have to have a reason for the name one chose? Lets face it, once you've signed up with it you rarely see it used to do anything but identify you. Who cares what it means if it's only useful as a differentiator?

If you've got a decent forum name then for most people there's only a 5 minute period where they're quite impressed, and then after that they don't really care. So I'd say there's a pretty strong case for forum names to not necessarily make sense. If your name offends people then usually those people who got offended are told to stop being such blubbering vaginas, and the name is left as it is. That's just personal experience there, but I've never seen it conducted any other way.

I'm really not seeing a very strong argument for the "for" here. I say we close this thread. It's not going anywhere, the user obviously isn't active, and if left open I predict (judging from the way it's been carrying on so far) it will descend into pointless arguing.

They're kind of disturbing sometimes.

Well... why shouldn't he have a reason? I mean, there's a much bigger chance that he has a reason, using that name, rather than not.
I'm not trying to create some flamewar with you. I just can't see why someone would call himself Hitler, if it's not meant as a joke or an insult to some people.

I believe Martin Luther King Jr. said the following:
Something like that...

Bwaha, that was great, Mojo.

Why are we still arguing over this? The guy obviously isn't posting.

But I agree that names don't mean much... I mean, take Hobo for example: He didn't sign up to beg for handouts of spare change and food because of his name. Mmyep.

That's where you're wrong :p

Alcar...

Yeah okay , i get it now.
Sorry , i apolagise.

Ps : sorry for my late reaction i installed windows and coulnt get on the forums on the midhouse computer.

Because there's no need to have a reason. Why SHOULD he? It's just a forum name for god's sakes, it doesn't matter what your name is because people only care about what you type. For instance, I think your name is totally stupid, but do I constantly tell you that? Do I even think it's important? NO. I couldn't care less in fact. The only thing that matters to me is what you say.

No there isn't, and you've not backed up your case. Why is there a much bigger chance that he has a reason? Did you have a reason for chosing your name, or was it just a random thing you plucked out of the air when you registered?

How do you know it's not meant as a joke or an insult? Or how do you know it is? You have no right to judge his reasons for choosing that name when you don't even know what those reasons are.

That's funny, because your names almost mean the same thing....

Now both of you, shut up. The Nazi Dictator doesn't post, no point in the thread, Tim H.C. got his answer, thread locked.

What the fuck man? Don't tell me to shut up, angry little prick.
