Yes a difficult grey area issue.
But i think it's a good thing to watch users nicks and the words they write.
To continue on Stephans saying even a lastname "De Cock" would be a normal dutch name. So in theory a user registering as "Dick De Cock" won't realize hes doing nasty stuff.

I also like to mention IRC in this.
It was about yesterday or the day before. One user came on the IRC channel asked a normal question. When nobody answered him within 5 minutes that user went bezerk calling to the channel "HELLO PHEDOPILES" asuming some would reply to his insult. He left tho before i could ask him hwy he displayed such low behaviour.
I wanted to look up his IP address and ban him from future IRC sesions and from the BU forums. (Yes i was that pissed off).
What can we do about that kinda situations. ?
Maybe trace back the IRC logs and ban sucj ppl from all BU services in cluding viewing the BU home page. ?
