In light of recent events, the staff and I have discussed usernames here, and it was the general consensus that we prohibit offensive/derogatory/vulgar/and inappropriate usernames. We already have rules in place preventing those types of avatars and signatures, and usernames also tie in with this. From now on, only clean usernames are allowed.

Hmm It's probably a good thing I don't get whatever is up with that one.
I'm not even going to try to google it.

I love the new rule, though! Very Happy

LOL, I was the same way! I read it as Gan-grape, rather than the way everyone else is reading it. I was trying to figure out what the heck a gan-grape was...thought it was some sort of sexual innuendo that I didn't know about. Then I read it correctly X|

Haha, Ryona, same here. I was like "oh, it's a fruit. That's cool." the whole time. XD Even when people mentioned it, it took me, like, three more tries to get it.

I'll admit, at first I thought it had something to do with a grape too.

I guess we were all under that impression of it being more of a reference to a 'grape' than to 'gang rape' I have to admit...I'd prefer to have been kept in the dark and left believing it inferred 'grape' but I suppose ignorance isn't always bliss.

You probably thought it was Gangrape, because when I introduced herself, I called her Gan-Grape, and made a little jingle.

I would buy Gan Grapes.

...Gan-grape...?
What...?
Oh. OH! Yes, yes, that's very inappropriate. Kind of impressive that she made it past the ever-intelligent and oh so watchful eye of mother, but still...inappropriate.
Good call, lovie. Just another day in the life, eh?
