I don't think they should have removed all "Coon" from the database, just the one guy in his team.


He could have sold the guy, as you pointed out later. But I guess if the player was very important to his team the above solution is acceptable.

I see your point. Would he have acted differently had it been a lousy player named "Coon"? Probably, I don't know. But the BB's attended to his request. Maybe they should use the opportunity to set down a rule, like "No BB names are created to offend anyone in any language. If someone is really offended they should sell or fire the player". End of discussion, no special requests. But there was no rule established, and changing the name is just a "find and replace" operation. The main point is that, for as long as there is moderation and common sense, this shouldn't be an issue. If this escalates we will end up choosing our players' names

Seems to me we mostly agree. I am happy to end our discussion on that note.

Yeah me too. I think we all agree that we may be moving into swampy territory unless ground rules are established

I am offended by the missing "t" in my team name.

Could you change that free for me, please? :-)
