I'm sure even a relaxed 'reviewer' knows that some words are unacceptable. I doubt anyone that's submitted an obvious inappropriate name has got it. There's still a chance, though.

mmm, wonder if names such as 'GM Administrator', 'noob' or maybe 'this game sux'
then to finish 'Honest Peter' then find out if disney has rejected all 4.

I was assuming it was one of those that had no issues with appropriateness, that were being turned down. Had no intention of implicating they might approve an inappropriate name. I was mainly trying to point out why there appears to be an inconsistency in names that are approved.

Oh, no offense.

I was just trying to say that it would be unlikely for an inappropriate name to go through. When I said there was a chance, I wasn't lying. (If only there was a rolling eye smiley that looked angry)

Inappropriate names have gone past toontown reviewers before. It's amazing how many bad names can enter the game undetected. It's pretty sad that some reviewers actually let these names get through. I'm surprised some of these people are even part of the disney company.

Sweetwater Jones is scurvy dog
i deleted this pirate a while back because i didn't want to get banned.

but initially, i did get the name 'dog tinmad' passed.

which, of course, if you reverse the words is a swear.

but once i realized that i could get in trouble for it, i deleted it.

now looking back, i'm surprised it ever went threw.

On Toontown, you can get away with whatever name you want by simply typing in Alt+1620 and then typing whatever you want as your name. I haven't tested it here, but I can imagine the same concept working......
