Re: Offensive Screen Names
[ QUOTE ]
Maybe I should report you for having "Devil" in your name, that is very offensive to me.

If your point is, "different people are offended by different things," no one disagrees with you. It is likely that site management here has deleted or modify some screennames. It appears "devil" meets their standards, though I think it within your rights to PM a moderator with your complaint.
The obvious solution is that the site owners are the final determinant of suitability. It is their property, and if they don't like the word "BRUIN," they are free to ask me to change my handle.
Private property rights on the Internet are expansive, and this is almost always good IMHO.
If a Poker site is offended by say...cow references at their site, I am more than willing to comply with their wishes. If I don't like their decisions, players can take play elsewhere or start their own poker site.
