Someone named Rtard sent me a tell asking for a qvic token run.
If you still need help Friday, shoot me another tell in game and I will hook you up for free.

Do you remember the naming policy thread where a ton of people with stupid/suggestive names got banned?

Considering that, I don't think he'll last the month.

An ogre called Rtard ...  WTB Humor for someone, even if its not the funniest joke. Whoever gives a damn about this name has problems.

I think the point of that thread was about offensive names.

/shrug, the guy who had "Nipple" as his name had to change it so... it seemed like it was more than just ourtwardly offensive names that were getting changed/banned for.

personally I couldn't give two shits. Doesn't bother me at all, I just thought its risky considering the thread we just had

@paladinsteve.. couldn't we say that about any offensive name? Wheres your humor?

Ahh i see, I think we have to draw the line somewhere on offensiveness vs just having harmless fun.
Anyway, if the Rtard is online today, send me a tell.

Have to admit that an ogre sort of can get away with a name of Rtard. They are after all, Ogres.

Retard (Rtard) is a derogatory term referring to people with mental and physical handicaps. It is offensive to some because it tends to stereotype people of such handicaps as being of low intelligence and socially unacceptable.

Retard can be the social equivalent to a handicap person as n**ger to a black person or ch*nk to an oriental person.

My 7 year old son has Autism (his intellect is off the charts, but he's in his own world socially). Before we had him I was completely ignorant to the challenges faced by people with such handicaps, and would have readily defended an ogre with such a name. But, things being as they are, I can understand why some may be offended the belittling of such a condition.

I tried the Piano thing. He was interested in it for a few days but wouldn't stick with it.

He can name every (and I mean EVERY) instrument in a full orchestra and readily spell words that I cannot. The problem is, he won't perform on demand. Everything is on his own agenda. We are working on that.
