Well, I talked to Christer about it some months ago when a similar problem arose. He said that it was a grey area, but in his oppinion we shouldn´t disallow historical correct names. That´s why I posted what I did. Maybe that has changed? |

And yet, I whole-heartedly approve. I'm a bigger fan of the no swearing in forums rule, but in general am happy to play the game without risk of viewing/reading offensive material. |

Uranus:
In British English the traditional pronunciation [yer-eh-nus] is giving way to a pronunciation with the stress on the first syllable [yure-ernus]. The US pronunciation is [yure-eh-nus].
Thus all this "schoolboy" humour will one day be lost to the Earth.
Sad. |

Yes, it works. This has to be the least offensive, most family friendly internet game site that I've come across. It's a nice change. |

I think the name Wuhan should be censored for crimes against innocent bb players. |

I have a question about names.
Can I have a team where all the players have the same name?
For instance, I want a skryre team where all the slaves are just called "Slave". Why? Fluff. Rat slaves shouldn't have names. |

Give them a fluffy bio and they might let you (there is a Malkovich Undead team all called Malkovich someplace). Giving them numbers too, and a bio and you'll probably be okay. |
