Why I can't play on punkbuster servers

PirateNinja

"Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'hammercock' (for 2 minutes) ... Bad (Disallowed) Name "

In a game focused on rewarding efficient murder that includes heavy vocal in game usage of words like fuck and shit on top of extremely realistic violence, the textual visualization of the name "hammercock" is simply unacceptable.

That's just plain idiotic.

Extreme violence and obscene vulgarity is totally fine while something vaguely sexual is "Bad (Disallowed)"?

To quote Marlon Brando,
"We train young men to drop fire on people. But their commanders won’t allow them to write “fuck” on their airplanes because it’s obscene!”

- Apocalypse Now (1979)

Nothing new here. Welcome to America.

I've seen far worse names than yours on BF3.

But dude, what will happen to the children when they see the word "cock" in your name while playing BF3? THINK OF THE CHILDREN, DUDE.

I really feel sincere distaste at people such as yourself who feel that just because there is swearing at a game it is not their job to set a good example for any youth who are playing the game. Yes the game is not for children, you should assume that there are always children playing though and set an example accordingly. How dare you do otherwise with such a disgusting name, the next time you decide to use profane words like "Hammer" think again. Jeeze.

Shame...

I don't understand all the upset here, I'm on the games cover for goodness sakes.

That is a well drawn hammercock.
