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~

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.

used:) 07-22-2005 06:39 AM

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.

used:) 07-22-2005 06:48 AM

Why don't we ban Jacob now?

Facsimile 07-22-2005 08:34 PM

Umm... Because he's awesome?

Leto 07-22-2005 09:25 PM

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.

Hobo 07-23-2005 03:21 AM

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

T-nex 07-23-2005 05:34 AM

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

Hobo 07-23-2005 08:16 AM

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

T-nex 07-23-2005 08:33 AM

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.

AquaticAmbi 07-23-2005 10:18 AM

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?

T-nex 07-23-2005 10:27 AM

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.

used:) 07-23-2005 12:44 PM

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

Leto 07-23-2005 02:29 PM

: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:

used:) 07-23-2005 02:33 PM

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.

Leto 07-23-2005 03:48 PM

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.

used:) 07-23-2005 04:00 PM

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

Esus 07-23-2005 04:38 PM

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

used:) 07-23-2005 04:50 PM

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.

Esus 07-23-2005 06:02 PM

:

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.
