I an interesting event in one of your servers tonight. I had just returned back to the U.S. from a job overseas and needed to relax from the jet lag, so I thought "I'll go BFM racing!" I joined a server and started racing. BFM Enoch first told "Bundy Bear" to change his name (can someone explain to me in as to why?) and then he told me to change mine. I replied that I "had been racing under that name (with many BFM members) for 4 months, what was the problem?" Enoch said change it and kicked me.
Not a big problem, but I am a bit offended in that my real first name is Israel, and Drax is a contraction of my last name ( you couldn't pronounce it without help and I would not post it in a public forum anyway).
Could someone be so kind as to explain the reasoning behind it? Is my first name too biblical (blame my parents), or is the State of Israel now in great disfavor with the new administration, or does Drax have some new slang meaning I am unaware of? BTW I am not Jewish, if that is the problem, I am Bulgarian by birth and immigrated to this country 15 years ago after some time in England. I am still sometime mystified by the language conventions of this country.
Also if it is not too offensive, I would care to know the offense the name Bundy Bear gave.
Thank you for your time.
Israel Drax
