How come on msn you cant change your display name to anything with these words in it?

f*ck, b*tch, c*nt, wh*re, penis, vagina, but you can put c*ck, sh*t, d*ck and some others?

This is the message i get when i try with one of these words.

"The display name you chose was invalid. Please choose another display name and try again."

yeah i tried it.. and I think I've seen this question on the boards before...anywayz... there must be some decency thingy in the messenger somewhere... so that a nice person at msn can censor our choice of nicks :p

Exactly or something they shouldnt be able to censor your nick i would understand if it was on neowin where people can see your nick but not your display name on msn

those are blocked words

for some reason msn just prohibits these words

they have a word list

the way to bypass it easily is just to a space in between a letter

not too hard... so yeah

I personally really hate how people change their name to something long...

Why cant you keep to one name? Like I'm on ICQ and MSN as "DWZ".

Why cant you pick a screen name, and keep to it?

I mean, I have a fairly short list on people on MSN (because its so crap compared to ICQ, i only use it because there are some idiots who just don't understand the power of ICQ) and a lot of them use names like:

  • !!!!Go Pies!!!!
  • (b)Beer - Give your brain the night off(b)
  • And this one time, at band camp.... AUGH, SHUT THE HELL UP!
  • Cheese, ya, Mad
  • yo y'all
  • IBM laptops best use r as doormats

augh! i hate it...

and what makes it worse is I can't "rename" a user like in ICQ to something that I will remember them by...
