This is really getting crazy, the list of blacklisted words has gotten into the retarded catagory. I can see if you swore, used racial slurs, or blatantly broke the code of conduct (read it, it's amusing), but "Chicago Ted" REALLY? What part of that could possibly be offensive to use as a name in your profile? Is Chicago that bad a place that it's been blacklisted? Is there some guy named Ted that is a total douche? I don't get it. Anyone else have any experiences with this weirdness?

Maybe it is cause you aren't worthy of mentioning Chicago Ted. Don't shoot the messenger. My buddy Keith told me to type that out cause one time........

well you see, had you read the post....

EDIT: I've been experimenting with this. Chicago and Ted alone are nothing blacklisted, so I tried Go Ted, Chica Go Ted, Chica Ted, and even ChicagoTed. How the hell is adding a space between Chicago and Ted turning it into a blacklisted name??

Let's keep the 360 board about 360 discussion, ok? Please also avoid using terms for mental handicap as synonyms for stupid or other derogatory uses.
