[Rant] Banned from the Comcast forum for user name "CmcastYouSuc

Banned from the Comcast forum for policy violation for the user name "CmcastYouSuck". So similarly if I apply for the name "ILoveCmcast" I should be banned.

The policy states that they can terminate for "offensive user names". The reality is that "Comcast" doesn't have a trademark called "Cmcast" or Ccast" or "Comcst" or "Cmcst" or anything other than "Comcast".

So all those posting on Comcast.net forums who say "my service is horrible" or the like, their postings can be removed as offensive to Comcast under the policies they have.

I suspect they draw a reasonable line between civil protest and not so civil protest.

It's their forum, they make the rules. If you came here with a username of DSLRSucks or BBRSucks then you'd probably get similar treatment. Universal freedom of expression does not extend to private property, what a company's forum essentially is.

But they dont as long as the post is constructive and not just a senseless rant.
Like this one might be considered to be.
"Comcast You Suck" as a Username might be inviting some sort of scrutiny wouldnt you think?

You are using their resource. If you don't like the means by which the resource is managed then feel free to no longer use it.

Undoubtedly.

My suggestion? Find better things to do with your time than
A. Create offensive names for the sake of creating offensive names and
B. Come here, and complain about it, instead of looking the help that we try to give.

There was no case of this that I'm aware of. I suspect that the thread I was responding to was the issue and not my response. One person had cable and internet signal problems for 7+ months.

Use the original name you want but in Latin.

OK, OP has made his/her complaint. Most recent responses seem to fit that not civil category I mentioned above.

I don't see a good place for this to go.
