[18:35] <arraybolt3> Is there any chance someone can DM a user named "AssTractionHero" (present in both #ubuntu and #kubuntu) and ask them to change their nick?
[20:26] <Eickmeyer> arraybolt3: Since nicknames are network-wide, and since it's not breaking any network rules, there's nothing we can do.
[20:46] <arraybolt3> In the past other ops have requested individuals to change their network-wide nick because they were in a room which that nick violated a rule of.
[20:46] <arraybolt3> If they don't want to change their nick, can't they simply leave the room?
[20:49] <Eickmeyer> It's not a considerably offensive nick. If it was, we'd be more concerned.
[20:50] <arraybolt3> I think the fact that someone is reporting it to you should be evidence that it's offensive enough for someone to notice and want it rectified.
[20:51] <Eickmeyer> I've got one person vs two other people telling me it's not offensive enough.
[20:51] <arraybolt3> I guess that's valid.
[20:51] <arraybolt3> In that case I'll drop it. But do keep in mind some of your users may be more sensitive than you think :)
[21:12] <el> if "ass" is a problem then there's at least one package that fails the same test
[21:13] <el> "assword" is a password manager and is definitely being cheeky with the name
[21:13] <el> (yes that pun was intended)
[21:22] <Menzador> We can't just yeet arbitrary strings at things (aka Scunthorpe problem)
[21:23] <el> indeed
[21:25] <el> i frequently recount that due to my last name i was unable to abide by TOS (which explicitly stated a legal name requirement) when signing up for email accounts when I was in highschool/college because of scunthorpe reasons.
