  • Osama joins Apolyton

    The 'newest member' of Apolyton goes by the name OBL. Is this a name that should be allowed to be used?

        I never thought Albert Speer's name was OK.

        OBL is suspect, but it's an abbreviation that could mean a lot of things, other than the current. Depends on what he posts, etc.

          It's a DL.

          OBL account disabled, the account info did relate to bin Laden, and the IP matches with a known poster, whose ass may well be mine by and by, unless I get a real good explanation.

                Well, he won't be getting an activation mail, since I permabanned him. I want to talk to the obvious culprit (if you check IP's) just in case there's some excuse. (I know there will be, but I want to see if it's a credible one)

                      DL are Bad !!

                      Whilst having a DL deservesa Banning, lets not jump up and down over peoples nicknames, there have been far worse people than Mr Bin Liner. Most Israelis on this site would be outraged to see any of the Nazi Regime names here, but they have been allowed in the past .

                        Why is Albert Speer less tasteless than OBL? He is a representative of a regime that took a few million jews and systematically murdered them!

                              By the way, perhaps we should give OBL the Edward II treatment.
