Keep the name as it is. It doesn't hurt anyone, or if it does get your priorities straight.

I might not download the application if it were named differently. Though could I suggest 'Absurdly-politically-correct-and-not-funny-at-all-bingo'? |
Re: ******** Bingo app - Name change?
I'm not sure of the OP's motivation here - are you objecting to the fact that someone said 'bulIshit', or do you actually want a version of this app that doesn't? Because in the latter case that sounds like a problem that can be solved.

Re: ******** Bingo app - Name change?
Okay, obviously my poor attempts at humor about apple forums fell flat. My apologies for that.
I think we're arguing scemantics, in many ways, but the wording being used by both sides is a little agressive. I think we all agree that the developer can name the app anything they want. I also think each user can choose whether they want to load the app or not. Can we agree on that? Once we get past that, it's easy to see how people's religious beliefs, upbringing, etc. will influence how they respond to the app's name, and to attacks on their views on this topic. |
Re: ******** Bingo app - Name change?
I think an easy solution to the issue is make everything about the app identity configurable by the user. Not just change the app filename, but have a setting in the app where the user can edit the internal app description and have that propagate throughout the app.
No political correctness, easy offense mitigation, and open source spirit all in one little change. ;) |

If you need profanity to have a sense of humor, I feel sorry for you. And with that, I'll go back to my humorless, pointless life without profanity(except in this thread), and enjoy every minute of it! |
Re: ******** Bingo app - Name change?
there are rank assumptions being made on BOTH sides of this silly debate.
