Block certain names of being used

Naruto. Dachou being a part of his translated fighting style in German. Character itself is called Dacho in the Japanese version.

Its the first thing that google spits out if you type Dachou pretty much. His point of the CC appearing when typing Dachau comes to absolutely nobodies surprise whatsoever as Germany isnt hiding its past and openly addresses it (again: Its part of the basic education) so of course google spits out the city as well as the CC.

I’m french , and in French it would Da-choo

Yea guys, please block everything that could be slightly offensive to us snowflakez. Words are very offensive. Every word has been used in sentences with offensive things. Please ban all the words!
Its 2024, how did we go back to 1933 Germany?
It is just ridiculous how crazies want to forbid more and more words. Reminds me of bad times in history.

Actual german here btw. Nobody in Germany or elsewhere is getting offended by a town name that is used today. Stop being offended on behalf of others. The others you think are offended are not.

Also, my FrostDK is called Nightking.

I wonder what kind of a sad human being gets up in the morning and thinks to themselves “let me make a forum post about this pointless topic that in no way anyone cares about and neither should I”

Go seek medication

Seriously, who cares about a videogame character name? People are so sensitive these days.

… Man people people are snowflakes nowadays, it’s sad.

Also uneducated… It’s Dachau

Again just an example I put out. There is even streamers like Staysafe giving their characters these names. Ziqo blizzard employee or at least hired by Blizzard made a great youtube video going into great detail on this specific case.

You can in bad faith stick on the one example I gave call me uneducated because in my country it is spelled like that.

There is many examples where they didn’t spell it differently or in some cases where internationally it has the same spelling.

To attempt to derail this conversation like this is just sad. If you had educated yourself a bit you would see this game is absolutely full with dog whistle and white supremacist signaling.

Also to say that it has anything to do with people nowadays being more sensitive is a bit weird. Do you think that people would be more accepting 20 years ago to naming your character after the na-zi homeland like StaySafe? Why would that be a good thing if you ain’t a one?

A bad one. One that showed that you have no clue how the city is being spelled, that it is still a city and not just the CC. As well as your example being a dubbed name in Germany from an anime.

Sincerely doubt he got hired by Blizzard for anything in that nature to begin with and while not posting under Blizzards name itself. If such stuff is involved a statement will be issued by the company and the investigation will be done either internally or through professionals, not some random youtuber.

Oh “your country” as an argument? So the uneducated card works even more. So you are condemning someone for using a spelling that only applies in YOUR country to begin with? That’s like a US citizen whining about a certain word in korean sounding offensive in the English language (which is equally laughable)

And in that case I already gave you an answer:

Your thread is sad to begin with. You are complaining about a spelling that is only relevant in your tongue and as such utterly and entirely irrelevant on the grand scale. Your argument with Dachau also being irrelevant as otherwise every city would need to be removed from the name creation (as stated) and not just a couple few capital cities (again as stated: Not even all of them. Not even in Europe)

The irony of that statement is baffling.

Yeah, go into the same corner as the buttload of people yelling “this game is woke”. You’ll fit right in with those.

Its not. We have evidence for that. We (the people from the middle) told you a decade ago that bevahior such as this one will only end up alienating people and rather push people towards the right wing than towards the left wing. And look and behold: We were absolutely correct with that assumption as is evident everywhere (even in nations where the left “won” like in France (and even there not really if you look at the total votes. This will backfire again if they don’t adapt to that).

People can still call themselves “Germany” or rather use some form of it and nobody would care and at best find it cringe. Whether one wants that or not is up for debate. Also Dachau isnt a homeland but a city for the thousand times. The city still exists and is populated to this day.

Also yes, people were “more accepting” 20 years ago because not everybody was a snowflake and the snowflakes couldn’t band up as easily through the internet. You had one snowflake per village or district back then. Their noise was just ignored because why would anyone pay attention to it. Now they have the internet, are all connected, and create too much noise with politicians believing the noisemakers speak for the people (which you evidently don’t, as otherwise we wouldn’t have this ring wing mess across the entirety of Europe)

And now shoo. The name will not be blocked and your report will have been ignored as its not valid. Actually do go on with your reports, as at some point your reports will be deemed low prio by the system and be ignored by default.

While I’m at it: Practice what you preach and go namechange. Your name is offensive to some. Or are you saying you only want exceptions made in your favour? Your “excuse” doent fly if we wanna apply your logic to it so chop chop, go namechange.

The “people” you feel offended on behalf of are actively ethnically cleansing and murdering civilians in their homes in the middle east to steal their lands on mass-scale

They dont care what the united nations thinks of them. You think some words gonna hurt their feelings?

They have sealed their fate into hellfire. They have thick skins. Dont worry.

Stop being a pathetic person

Gimme me a break. What about the LGBTQ+ rights in there ? I don’t think they are very fond or accept your friends in there.

I think we should be able to have dual names now.
Such as eric harrison or somthing like that.

Npcs have them so why cant players ?
And i dont just mean in retail.

Good eg

Sylvanas windrunner.

Yet were still stuck having to mash out a one sentence name and its got a limit on how long it can be not a large limit either.

Harrison Ford, Harri’s son and associated with the Ford automobile. This would be my rp character and I support this idea.

Oy vey, that’s just preposterous, I hope Blizzard addresses this and punishes those pesky goys.

I dont rly think lbqt should matter in a game where men can be female and female can be men.
you can play as other races and what not its literally an ideal enviroment for ppl of that mindset to be in with nobody knowing or even caring.

Bringing the lbqt stuff into an online fantasy game is a powder keg waiting to go off.

Just by using the wrong refferance can set somone off its a bad idea to even try to inject it.

Ppl would be geting banned left and right just bc others take exception to how theyre spoken to.

Best advice here is leave it in the real world and just enjoy being your online chara the rules of normalcy do not apply in a game like this

Thats not true, its more age demographically related.
You shouldnt tar everyone with the same brush .

Thats like me saying every polish person ive ever met is arrgent and up themselves.

Its utter tat makes no sense and is incorrect.

Who cares? Also Dachau (the correct spelling, not what you wrote) is a name of a city in Bayern. Is that forbidden?

Smh you’re troll for sure.

the one that goes out their way to be offended at a general comment aimed at no-one thats cleary a joke, is usually the one guilty of the accusation
