Sluggishtaco is offensive?

[Ultimatetacoman]

When I go to change my name it says "We have the right to ban anyone for using a name that is offensive" and it doesnt take my plat and change my name. What about Sluggishtaco is offensive? I had this name auto generated for me like 8 years ago on xbox.

Muffin was offensive too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ very stupid

It's possible that whatever algorithm is in charge of that sees the "isht" in "Sluggishtaco" and thinks you mean something else that's spelled similarly.

In today's overly PC society, anything and pretty much everything is offensive to somebody somewhere. Both taco and muffin have derogatory (albeit slang) meanings associated with them.

And this name got a pass without any problem.

Well I'm here hoping with you that DE fixes the algorithums, but they have a lot on their plates right now so I'm not sure that they're gonna look into it any time soon.

I now want to name myself @#&*ishtaco. Which is what I read the title as at first glance. But yeah... unlike the name I read, yours does not even trigger censorship.

the algorithm probably just looks for strings of letters regardless of the context.
like for instance the word "scrape" contains the word "rape"
the reason it does not take the surrounding letters into account is so that someone cannot get away with "xxx$&*^slolxxx"
Unfortunately someone who wants to call themselves EastPenIsland will get flagged for the chain "penis"

In your case there might be a foreign slang word you are unfamiliar with like "gish" or, i dunno "shtac" (i have no idea if these are slang words)

Great, now I want a taco.
