Offensive names yet nothing done about it

I have some alts with some decently raunchy names. All in good fun and relatively harmless. Mostly meme names.

But…

is not funny.
I mean it gets points for being unexpected and having the shock value like “LOL look at this guy with a weird name huh would you look at that”

Beyond that initial shock, though, it starts to feel a little more uncomfortable.

You just said I was wrong with no proof other than what you think your own kids are telling you. If you have a daughter I guarantee you dont know her body count lmaoooo, she will either lie or not tel you, because most likely if she said the truth you would judge

hi karens and others

Normal people don’t talk this way about another person’s kid.

I did a quick character search. OMG, that name does actually exist. I happen to have a few toons on that server. I am heading there to make a report. So so so disappointed in Blizzard for not taking action on that, especially that they are trying to clean up their image.

Imagine being the boy defending the name Wifeabuser.

Don’t forget, if you find the name offensive/worth reporting it means you’re old.

Apparently.

I have bad news. If there is one thing that Karens are always are up on, it is what is inside their mailbox. This is like hiding from orcs in Orgrimmar.

Why don’t you just ignore it and move on?

Really good post. Had to comment on it just because of how much I support your point here. Well thought out and well-written.

Granted this was like, 10 years ago, but I reported the same blatant K-K-K reference of a character name for 8 months and nothing was ever done. I don’t know about you but I lost faith in the report player tool altogether.

There’s literally a character named, uhh, probably the first racial slur you’d think of. No alt codes.

I am going to be very honest here. From one adult to another.
I knew someone who sounded a LOT like what you are saying right here.

The difference was instead of defending her child from some silly “you don’t know what your kids do when you are away” she was defending her child who tried to drown my brother’s daughter(my niece) who was only 6 at the time.

I also knew that person well as I lived with them, and her daughter around her acted very well… but that girl was a demon when she was gone.

I am not commenting on your parenting and I am not commenting on how your children are(I am honestly sure that you did good and they are great!). Just saying that to pretend that you know everything of your child(ren) is extremely naive. I’ve seen this first hand.

I can see how the first name is obviously offensive, even though it isn’t personally worth my time to report, but what is offensive about any body part being a name? Maybe people are too obsessed with genitals.

i mean for one, pretty much every person out there wears clothes or at least covers them selves up. Some things you just dont see in public and for good reasons. Another is straight up maturity. Its not funny, its like a stand up comedian who’s entire routine is hugging a mic and swearing into it for an hour. Genital based names/jokes only appeal to the lowest common denominator. The type of people who think they are good and worth repeating wont have anything meaningful to contribute in normal settings.

For the record i dont actually consider “bum” or “butt” to be genital. Names refering to that i still find meh but not necessarily offensive, depending though. Theres always the outlier who will take things to the lowest of the low.
