instead of muting me and threatening me why couldn't you just tell me what rules I was violating in the first place instead of making new rules up on the fly? Still cant even give me a reason why my new name was rejected, keep treating your players like shit

So you are telling me that you honestly can't for the life of you figure out why HeilPhoenix is a problematic name ?

My exact thoughts. Also, he was not threatening you at all. Stop trying to create public outrage because you cannot choose a non-offensive name.

Sure, I will enlighten you.

Origin and Etymology of heil
German, interjection, hail (used by the Nazis in such phrases as Heil Hitler! Hail Hitler! and Sieg heil! Hail victory!), from Middle High German, from heil, adjective, healthy, from Old high German

Yes, it can mean healthy, but it has a negative connotation that is much more often used.

Also, we can all tell by your super classy forum name that there is a pretty high chance you knew what you were doing.

and with your name we could assume your name is a combination of throat and cock, if I assume something it must be right, correct? still missing the point of how the GM handled this whole situation, had this name for weeks and 1bubblewrapped individual started to cry in advice and it took off , sure rename me but don't mute me for no good reason and give me a reason why you wont accept my new acceptable name instead of giving me the cold shoulder.
Also missing your point on where heil is a terrible thing to say, shouldn't it be filtered out? not in dictionaries anymore if its SOOO bad, seems pretty forced.

I'm curious, what was this general discussion you started?

Mind that:
a) you have already been renamed before
b) making fun about a GM's not perfect English /mute
c) The combination of words - in no conjunction with healing - therefore provocative - in addition, Phoenix in your name
