Can you do anything about the opposing contestant in game Nos 654114 & 653977??

I cannot bring myself to compete with someone who gives himself such a name.

Yet I cannot opt out of a tournament.

Am I being too 'old fashioned'??

I request that the usernames listed below also
be changed. Where I come from, nuts is a slang
word for testicles.

Thanks,
Dr. Cribs

I suggest that "cribs" have his name changed. In parts of the US, this is a slang negative term for a crip (gangmember) as used by it's rival gangs.

I also suggest that the site administrators contact the Vatican to verify the sainthood of "Saint Nick". If he is not actually a saint, his use of the name could be offensive to some.

Give me break. Nearly every word in the English langauge has multiple meanings and can be used a multitude of ways. I would say that it would be near impossible to find a username that is not offensive to someone.
I use Saint Nick at nearly every web site I go to and for my home e-mail name. I have received complaints about it before (really!).
Why don't we stick to names that are openly and intentionally vulgar. I had no idea that this guys name was vulgar in any way shape or form.

In Britain, you would not be allowed to say this guy's username on television before 9pm. It is a known, and openly offensive phrase, and is more than simply "slang" for the word testicles.

It is offensive, even though it is used to mean that something is good - i.e. "Wow! That is the Mutt's Nutts! Where did you find it?".

The word has not gained popularity in other parts of the English-speaking world, particularly America, and as such most Americans do not recognise the word as offensive.

What's offensive about St. Nick's name?
It comes from St. Nicholas, which in some parts of Europe is Santa Niclaus, and commonly shortened worldwide to Santa Claus.

Are you perhaps thinking of "Old Nick"? This is a British slang name for Satan.

Learn something new everyday. Now I know.

James, Though not openly offensive, I have recieved complaints (not on RHP) about claiming to be a saint (by dedicated christians) and for claiming to be Santa Claus (from people that feared their children would actually think Santa was online in chat rooms, etc)
My real name (Nichols) is a derivitive of the same name that St. Nick originated from, hence, my username.
As Russ points out, my name was not in question. I was using as an example of a name someone could complain about that was not openly offensive to most users.
