Surname Fuchs Forbidden

[fuddledfox]

Why can’t I use the surname Fuchs in the game?

It is German for Fox and is a perfectly legitimate surname in Germany/Austria as shown by the footballer Christian Fuchs.

I wondered if I had to change my nationality to German/Austrian but it is still forbidden which seems very strange to me.

Hey @fuddledfox

Unfortunately Microsoft's profanity filter is extremely strict. This is obviously extremely unfortunate in circumstances like yours.

Thanks for your answer @Desmond Richardson.

Seems very draconian and the currant Turkey manager Stefan Kuntz must be fuming about the harshness of there profanity filters.

Imagine if Nicky Butt was still playing. He'd simply be named Nicky B?

And how is "Fuchs" a profanity? Lol

I think it is only the manager's name. The editor or the database doesn't have an issue with those names, even if (parts of them are) considered foul words by Micrisoft.

Very odd considering Microsoft allow the name Dickinson as an Xbox user name but it can’t be used in a game.
