    So it'd be fine if I create account called AdolfHitler?

    Quite frankly, yes it would. I would think it was a little sad and juvenile but I certainly wouldn't be offended, I mean come on, lots of people use offensive usernames on fora, it's done to get attention which has certainly worked in this case!

    What a useless, redundant post. No everything that everyone posts is fact.
    Its always the high post counters with the least to say.

    They're light hearted chaps arent they, these conscientious objectors to usernames.

    Obviously I did no research into other Boards' usernames, thanks to the 6 or 7 people that pointed it out.

    How that's a counterpoint to what you quoted I'm not sure...

    My apologies, having a slow Summer working and keep getting dragged into these chat threads I wouldn't normally touch. I hadn't realised you could be as offensive as you wanted with your username.

    LOL. The name was intended as "a pregnant, expressionistic development that we see as an artistic creation".

    Offensive is purely a point of view.

    I find the user name Dr Mengele reprehensible.

    As someone who had a relative die in a concentration camp it is terrible that it is now apparently fun to laugh at these events.

    Seriously, am I the only one to learn from history about the dangers of rampant anti-Semitism, sheer butchery and in my family’s case the dangers of getting seriously pissed in a thirty-foot tall guard tower.

    I too have found someone offensive,
    The user DeVore is clearly named after Irven DeVore, an anthropologist and evolutionary biologist at Harvard University's Peabody Museum
    Well, we'd best get rid of that godless heathen as quickly as possible, lest he corrupt our children's minds into thinking that his theory of evolution is a fact. God created the world and everything in it and we shouldn't be letting folks think otherwise!

    And whomever thought they'd post as Dr.Mengele should be ashamed of themselves. Have they no sympathy at all for the families of those who've been lost through drowning while on holiday?

    Perhaps we should ban those who find it offensive. That way we get less mindless moaning and accusations and a more humorous Boards.ie for the rest of us.

    No one has answered this, what do people find offensive about a name?

    If you looked through history you will find people with almost any name that did all sorts of horrible things.

    Yep, it's just much easier to just reply randomly than actually read a post.

    I think you may have added more in while I was replying ... or else I didn't read it properly. I have edited mine.
