Someone renamed my Team:

Altdorf Bastards to Altdorf Banjos. Who? And why. I named all players like a gang of illegitimate childs lives in Altdorf. Illegitimate Childs = Bastards. I mind a little story for this team and anyone simply change the name. AND see not the nessecary to inform me anyway.

I would like to have ananswer, how i break the site rules? And why I got no information. After playing three games with that team. Against teams that named a,,b,c,d, and so on.

Who renamed my team (in such a ugly name) and why, pls contact me.

Guessing it might have been an auto admin thing, the bot takes offense to the word Bastards and tries to save us all from seeing it by changing it.

Else Spanish speaking admin.

There are children on this site Doc. Pretty obvious why it was renamed.
But maybe it is a conspirocy.

This is an interesting one as I have also been in this position.

A while ago I wanted to call a team 'Magnificent Bas****ds'. I had fluff around the team. However, the word is classed as a profanity in the UK even with it's genuine routes. The term is used offensively. So I checked it with an admin first. It was a No.

Also, the site is a family site and there are people that play here who are not adults. I wouldn't want my kids seeing it as they may not have the understanding to put it into context.

Recently I talked to a coach about using the word 'retard' he had used in a team as I find that highly offensive due to a member of my family being subjected to abuse over time using that word. I didn't kick off about it but did explain that in my part of the world that can be used as quite an offensive word.

I can't answer your question but I do understand.

*ninja'd by Gary. Why did it take me 10 minutes to write that post?! Very Happy
