What's the policy regarding inappropriate forum names?

ban that particular 'nickname' !

Generally speaking, offensive, derogatory, religious nicknames are inappropriate.

how about signature? i saw a forummer got combination of bad words..cant remember his name

Haha I know who you're talking about.

What about nicks with "cum" in them?

Generally prohibited as well

That would probably depend on the context. You can PM me the nick in question.

what if "by coincidence" a random collection of letters like mine

LOL wuts APOM? hahahaha

just some random collection of letters
nothing more than that

are u sure? o.O

by "coincidence" maaa

I remember there is a nick... pronunciation is exactly the same as bad word. Just the word is not exactly the same. Is this banned too?

then "uncoincidence" it. your sig is overlimit by the way.

Do I get the thumbs up now??

how bout offensive avatar?

like mine ?

^
nah... urs mean nothing... i saw one avatar showing a grandma showing middle finger=.=

u are just over analyzing. middle finger could be an innocent gesture.
ass could mean ass but ass could mean animal?
since when was breast a vulgar word? or masturbation? Is this the Malaysian way? going backwards

fcuk90?
lol this one looke weird but hmm... =.=
*oh dun kill me ><*

how about my siggy? how to rape your own sister.

lmao urs is the best x_____x....

anyway regarding TS question, i think it is a subjective matter on certain stuff, as one thing/word/posture/whatever maybe me offensive to one, but it may mean nothing to another, but of course words like f*ck, c*bai are of course in no terms can be considered non-offensive(unless ur playing dota at home or during a LAN party ), so other then that, its really a subjective matter.

as for nick name, well, its subjective, but again its up to the mods on how they wanna regulate it as to what is deemed inappropriate or appropriate

fcuk??
a fashion clothes brand??

if there is a nick like this, it will be no offensive at all

Is my avatar offensive?

lol now my sig is really offensive. just being warn about it. i dont know if links to bible are offensive.

Your sig was 'read on how to rape yr own sister here' with a link to the bible. On most days you would have been given a suspension but I guess you were just lucky. Don't push your luck.

lol that's what the scripture tell us. only if you really read the scripture. im telling the damn truth. and im indeed lucky today as you the one who warn me today. other staff will easily emo and hit me with a 2-week suspension.

edit: now i already restructure my sig, and if you pls, follow the links and read. have a nice reading. and let see if am going to get another suspension for the links, or. or a suspension because im brave enough to argue with staff. or as what H@H@ said, 'being an asshat in the forum helpdesk'. lol.

sorry boss. i thought helpdesk is where we as forumer channel our concern about this lowyat.net. it's somewhat similar to as what we internet user, channel our problem at the streamyx helpdesk. here in this helpdesk, when you argue with the staff, they will somehow chop off your head. /b/ once said, thsi is teh tubes.

but arguing with streamyx helpdesk, how bad you throw your shit to them, they wont emotionally cut your internet line. lol. that's the different.

sorry again. i hope i wont get another suspension for this. lol.

Please go away before I change my mind.

Wow you're actually comparing Streamyx, which you pay a monthly, they have obligations to you as a customer to Lowyat.Net, where you're the one getting the benefits from a free forum

And come on, no one in their right mind would try to argue that it's not offensive to point to a part of the bible and state that it's "teaching you how to rape your sister"
You may argue that interpretation of what it means is true, but that doesn't make it non-offensive

as our admin said, never ever trying to push your luck to put something that is potential to be offensive
some may find it non-offensive, while others may think it is
just use some common sense: even if you put something that is near-to-be offensive (like Fu King Chinese Restaurant), you may deserve to be suspended
and, never let yourself caught yapping over your own mistake
