I'm a web developer, and as usual, internet explorer is giving me a headache. So I've been using the name "Internet Fucking Explorer" and I've had a second thought of changing it because of the possibilities of getting banned..

Can this happen?

I believe they can suspend you from the community for x amount of time.

"Steam Support Alert for username - 28 December 2012
Your Steam Community privileges have been suspended for 4 weeks for violations of the Steam Subscriber Agreement."

If someone reports you, you can be suspended from the community and/or asked to change it.

Either way, I have to ask, what's the point? If you're worried, stop acting like a child and change your name back to something more acceptable and mature.

Sorry Sir. Mature, but I don't think you know how internet explorer ruins any Web Developer's day. Specially Internet Explorer 6.x, DAT DINOSSAUR.

Lol, you know what they say about those that assume, right?

I worked five years as a web developer, coding in Cold Fusion, .Net (mostly VB, some C#), and ASP. If you think IE6 is bad, try having to code for IE5. IE6 actually isn't that bad if you know all the workarounds.

First, you'd need someone to report you. Then, you'd probably be dished a warning since 'fucking' isn't the worst adjective out there.

I believe you could, but only if somebody reports you so they see it. So it's a function based on how inappropriate it is and how much you annoy the people who would see your profile ;)

No tech-savvy person would want to, but there are a lot of people still stuck on IE8 and below due to OS reasons and a lack of good IT support. Small companies refuse to upgrade, still want a website for marketing purposes, you pick it up for some easy cash since they don't have high standards (besides the catch of developing for outdated browsers). A job's a job.

Might as well change it to ******* or something. Better safe than sorry for something as minor as being pissed off at IE.

Right, what does being a web developer have to do with this? If anything, a web developer would be using a more sophisticated browser like Chrome or Firefox. A web developer would also understand that an online service as popular as Steam would be faced with an insurmountable amount of work if they banned people because of inappropriate Steam names. Don't you think they would simply force certain words to be censored if it was a concern to them? They already do this in the forums.

It didn't sound like he was using it for work when I read it. If he worded it a little better I wouldn't have considered him using it out of preference in his personal life.

No of course not. At the very worst someone may feel offended and write non-sense on your wall.

A friend of mine (IRL) has been named something like "Captain Dildo-zer" for the past 2 years with no troubles. Actually, let me look at the exact name, cause I'm sure it's funnier than that.

Actually, I guess he's been changing it. Here's his recent names list, and he's been doing this forever with no issue.

General Genitalia,
Acclaimed Rapper/Actor Run-DMC,
Dukar T. Washington,
Dildozer The Dildozerian,
Dildo Baggins And The Dildozers,
anti-poop consortium,
Battlechodes,
Fagnanimous,
The Racist Rapist Rises,
Generic Genitalia...

I don't think I want to be friends with him anymore.
