Offensive Free Company Names

Is it possible to change the name of offensive free company names? I reported an FC to a GM to see if they can be forced to change the name. I will not post the FC to avoid name shaming.

i dont think they should be reported. they play a game that they pay for, why can't they name a fc whatever they want? unless its against the ToS or something.

Now I'm trying to think of any FCs with an offensive name on our server...

But anyway, afaik, you can change the FC name at any time. The most you can do is report them, or contact the FC leader and address it with them. Hopefully you get a quick response, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Very simple:

this is taken from esrb.org

TEEN: Content is generally suitable for ages 13 and up. May contain violence, suggestive themes, crude humor, minimal blood, simulated gambling and/or infrequent use of strong language.

MATURE: Content is generally suitable for ages 17 and up. May contain intense violence, blood and gore, sexual content and/or strong language.

This game is rated teen and sexual names should be forced to be changed if it offends someone.

I am sorry but this is plain wrong. How they run their FC is entirely up to them. However, the name of a FC DOES in fact affect players NOT in that FC, since they can see the FC name. It is no different to a player name being offensive. It should be reported and forcibly changed.

I thought most MMOs have a clause in their rating that says it is variable because you're dealing with an online environment where you could be subjected to a whole host of things the dev didn't intend. That said, I usually don't care at all what people choose to call themselves or their FCs... if you want to pay monthly and have a ridiculous name, that's your business.

Ugh grow up. If it's not something racist or bigotry get over it.

You're telling me to grow up without knowing the FC name? Good job making an asinine assumption about me and/or the name.
