Apparently Microsoft have decided to put themselves above morals and ethics and decide for the users of the MSN Messenger what they may and may not call themselves. When trying to change your .NET name, some words will simply make your name “invalid”. So far I have identified the following, does anybody have a list of these forbidden words?
Oddly enough, “porn” is accepted…
Anything that has the letters "www" in it.
Add "tech" to the list
add..'remember'
words like nazi and microsoft are also banned, but the one that struck me as really odd was "help". If anyone can explain that one to me I will be amazed.
