I had my UNC Charlotte team flagged and removed from TB for an "inappropriate player name". I'm a bit frustrated since the names are all of real life players, not some made up name just to try and be funny or a D. I have faith that they will work with me to resolve the issue, I'd gladly change the last name to fix it...but that's tough to do when even I can't access the team. I really hope it's not gone for good where I have to do the team from scratch.

I did some more playing around with this. So "Gayle" and "Scooter" are "obviously" offensive. But the word "gay" itself is fine. What else IS okay?
"Gayman", "Iamgay", "Isgay", "Gaysex", "XHomoX", "Gayhomo"

I believe "Gay" is what got my team pulled, so even if it makes it past censors, apparently it still is not okay.

Oh no doubt. I'm just pointing out the irony that you can include "gay" as part of other words, and can input much more offensive-sounding combinations that, at least aren't automatically censored. As for teams getting flagged - like I say if you don't like it, don't look at it

Pardon my ignorance but why in the world would Fuquay be censored? What do they think it's supposed to mean?

My guess is it's the "Fuq" part.
