Seriously Riot? How do you even allow this? How is that not a blacklisted name?

Isis was the goddess of magic and nature in the Egyptian pantheon. The heiroglyphs used for her name could also be translated as "mother of the king's throne", and the pharoah was thought to be the son of Isis, sent to watch over the people from the throne. She married her brother Osiris, and conceived Horus with him. Osiris was murdered by Set, and Isis fled with Horus to protect him from also being murdered. Her name, along with Horus, was used in most healing and restoration prayers. Isis also collected all the parts of Osiris' body that Set had strewn about the earth and merged them together with magic to resurrect Osiris. During the time Isis was working on this, it was believed that her tears shed for her dead husband flooded the Nile basin.

Espy Psyche is right. There are many meanings to the name "Isis" besides the terrorist group that should technically be called "ISIL" so there's nothing inherently wrong with the name. Bad taste, possibly, given current events but not on the level of "KKK" or something. There are a lot of stores that have been in business for 30+ years with the name "Isis" who keep having issues due to your sort of ignorance: http://edition.cnn.com/2015/11/19/us/isis-book-store-name-unintended-consequences/

International Secret Intelligence Service. They're probably just Archer fans.

ISIS is fine.. I mean it IS related to bad people, but it's not THAT bad.

I'd rather see those tags like UMAD or Nig** get banned.

UMAD worse than ISIS....

Fuck the world we live in.

None of these tags should be banned, but you (OP) are one to talk, having the spawn of Satan Teemo in your summoner's name.

The whole point of having ''offensive'' club tags is to tilt people.

I don't get tilted when i get killed by a guy who had an ''ISIS'' tag.

"The whole point of having ''offensive'' club tags is to tilt people."

I don't agree with this. I think the whole point of having an offensive club tag is to be an edgy 12 year old. And I highly doubt that there is any sort of evidence that people are more likely to be tilted when they're killed by someone with an offensive name or tag than they are when they're killed by someone with a normal name/no tag at all.

When i'm killed with a Zed, who writes ''?'' after killing me, and his club tag is UMAD (happened to me), i get partially tilted. I don't get tilted when i die, except when it's by Fizz. I hate this guy.

As for the edgy 12 year old, you're totally right!

There doesn't seem to be a filter for Clubs at all except for a handful of official ones that were reserved. Please use the Inappropriate Summoner Name report option for them, or a ticket if you need to report outside of a match. I think a filter will be added, but filters are easily duped and can cause issues for legitimate names so aren't used heavily anyway. Obviously inappropriate names may be punished harshly, so you don't have to worry too much about them getting away with it.

Isis is not an inappropriate club abbreviation. Also Isis has nothing to do with Isil.

Didn't say it was.

I've run into players with "retard" and things like it in their name lol. Yet my e-sports name couldn't be "Taylor Swift is Sexy" because it contained a "bad word"? Wut

Hello I am Bird2 votes

No, you can't have the name "Taylor Swift is Sexy" Because it's more than 18 characters lol

MrPharmD2 votes

E-Sports name, not League of Legends name.

When I tried to enter it for my fantasy E-Sports name, it said it contained inappropriate language.

If you find the clan name offensive, you can report them under "innapropriate name". You can specify in the comment section that it is the clan tag that offends you.
