Okay, ignore option #4.

No one I know has ever had a problem with my name, but as BF2S grows more and more I increasingly feel the need to change my name. If people find it offencive I'll have Chuy take my name off the default "My Leader Boards".

If you absolutely have to change it, you could always go back to Ubergoose!  Or Mohammed Al-Gasab from Desert Combat...

From the Chinese-Jewish guy, I say leave it. If your making fun of your own race and you are cool with it...
Before I tell a joke about any race I always open up with a Jewish or Chinese joke 1st.  It clears the way for a not-quite-over-the-edge joke about another race. (as well as letting you know if you should proceed with said joke in the 1st place)
Just the sheer fact that you are sensitive enough about others feelings to post like you have is proof enough that no harm or tension is intended by the moniker.

*opener* Yeah, being Chinese and Jewish kinda sucks, cause you're genetically short already, then they come along and *snip*....   So Sumi....

We've all been told over and over again by our liberal elite overlords that it is only the white man who can be racist, so I wouldn't worry about it.

How about changing it to:

SoulSushi
FunkyYellow
DarkNip

Just a few. BTW I'm also Half Japanese so that makes my racist remarks to Japanese legit in some odd way.

Would I be racist in assuming you're half japanese and half african american? Afro+jap? If you're half japanese I would say that gives you alot of right to call yourself a 'Jap".

Maybe some Japanese guy was offended by the "jap" part of your name.  Otherwise, it seems fine since I am not Japanese, j/k.

tbh, I never thought that your name had anything to do with that. I always thought it had some other ( undisclosed ) meaning. Accordingly, I didn't find it offensive.

And really, does it matter ? As long as it isn't something like "Hitler_pwns", you should be fine..

Afrojap, I figured you for a half black, half jap. Jap, when I use the word, is an abbreviation. Nothing wrong with your name, relax.

I would say there is something wrong people who get bent out of shape over a silly name.

Kung Jew, your name rules.

Help Erk make a new name people. 1/2 Rus, 1/4 Eng 1/4 Scot. I made up the name Erkut back in the Delta Force 2 days. I had no idea it was actually a Turkish name.... lol

Erkut....maybe Ivan Whitmore MacKinnon?  Dmitri Niles MacIntyre?

Maybe just call yourself White_Russian like the drink?  (Also helps that it was a big feature of The Big Lebowski)
