I personally find this offensive. I think that the online poker rooms should at least check these out. I understand that we are all adults. I get that , but what if you have kids around or just plain ol do not care to see someones screen name reverting to something sexual.. really what is everyone's:eek: :eek: thoughts?

I had a user name "Lukewarmplace". I don't know about you but I think it's funny. I personally don't mind sexual screen names but it's a personal preference whether to like them or not. I find humor in most sexuel screen names but some, yes, are a little out of hand. But it doesn't bother me.

Lol. This is just so petty. Oh my, so someone wants to make a funny name like JackKingOff/KingJackOff/ClintBeatsWood/ClintEatsWood etc. There is no reason to get all butt-hurt over it. Also, the whole online pokersites should check them out? Why? For what reason? To get a good chuckle. Also i got a very easy rebuttle to what if you have kids. Simple, get off poker and take care of your kids.

Yeah some names would be embarrassing,especially when you needed to talk to live support or request for a withdrawal and they ask for your screen name.

"And what is your username, sir?" .... "PhuzzyWetSpot69..." "fuzzy with a "PH"

So true I agree with you totally. I do find humor in some. About others I dont feel offended.

maybe you should spend time with your kids instead of the computer...so they don't grow up to be degenerate poker players playing with degenerate sexually deviant online poker players

I think this is a bit dramatic. I have played online poker for a long time and I don't pay attention to screen names. Remember, the online sites would disallow names that are offensive, be they graphic, racist, sexist, whatever. So I don't see what the big fuss is.

That said, some people are way more sensitive than others, and maybe are too sensitive.

I don't mind I think they are fine especially if it has to do with poker

for example "LookAtMyNutzPlz"

However something like "SuckMyBigBlackAces" may be boarder line but still okay lolz

Meaning I only play one table so I can pay attention to the names and players are constantly being moved os just paying attention to position doesn't do me any good

I don't mind the funny ones but don't care for disgusting sexual screen names. There is one on ACR that makes me go "ugh" every time.

Thats my point

there are some funny ones but yes ACR has some that are just not appealing and are disgusting I think. I am not trying to be a prude I was just stating my opinion and asking others!! ;):eek:

It is the internet. You gotta expect names that might be offensive. But to take offense to it? In my eyes that is like going to a bar, but then complain cause you find drunk people offensive. Best example I can think of really.

If the poker room let them register the user ID. think that is OK.
if not feel comfortable, just switch tables.
