There's a "report this pet name" link under each pet in the pound for adoption now. Does anyone know why?
I don't think it's a bad idea to scan the names like that but what if a pet name is reported and then the pet's adopted?
Hmm...maybe because of the names with...suggestive or offensive words?
Yes, but lets say a few people report an offensive name. A person adopts it, because they like it and dont care about the name. Next day they go to log in and they are frozen for having a pet with an offensive name. See what it means?
That won't happen. They don't freeze because of one offensive pet name, even if you created the pet yourself. For instance someone (Zega I think) made a pet called Herpes, and now the pet's lookup says:
This pet has been deemed inappropriate for Neopets.
The owner wasn't frozen though.
Incidentally Adam Powell used to have a pet called Mardi_Gras but inexplicably he has deemed it "inappropriate for Neopets" - perhaps he was just having a joke

Mardi_Gras is inappropriate but "oifetchmecorona" isn't? lol.
