What do you expect us to do exactly? There are multiple problems in dealing with this:
1. A moderator must be around. I didn't see one in the lobby on that screenshot.
2. Even if a moderator is around, banning the account doesn't fix the problem. Anyone can create another account in seconds and continue trolling. In fact, I find banning someone in this situation (a troll account with no rank whose creating crap game names) is giving them the attention they are seeking, sometimes making the issue worse.
3. The best I have to offer is to kick players that join those games right after the game has started (costing everyone who joins a rating loss) (of which I have threatened before with mild success). I would actually like some feedback from the community here however, before I and other mods implement this. If this is the approach mods are to take, which as of now is the best I think we have, we need to update the rules. While this approach doesn't prevent game names from being created (and nothing will), it will hinder them from being games people will join and play without regard to it's name. I've particularly noticed once a person or two is in the room, the troll will leave and create yet another one, in that way building up many game names with one troll account. There should also be some discussion here about banning players that simply join the game before it has started, as this would too reduce the user's ability to create multiple shitty game names. Either we're all complicit, or none of us are, and the issue will never be resolved... that's how it is in my mind as of now.

Some player don't look at the title, so if you kick them, they may learn to read the titles. But as you can see, some games are made 1v1q and full map att, so the troll doesn't want them to fill, instead leave them up top of the games, so would kicking players be the the option, so i don't see this being fixed any way

The only way i see is lopdo adding a feature that lvl 10s + can make game names, and they will eventually be caught and let the troll start again

I would say that Lopdo should make it so that no one may change the game name. Or, make it so that certain words may not be used in the game name (e.g. Lopdo programs it so that the F-bomb can't be used in a game's name. When someone tries to put the F-bomb in their game name, it will tell him/her something like "Inappropriate word in game name." and stop the game from being created. Maybe even send an automatic report to a moderator). And just do that for every expletive he can think of. May take some work from Lopdo but if he wants this game to live, he needs to do something with it.

i would think that you guys could see which ip is causing the games and ban that ip so that person no matter how many names he creates he cant log from his computer but i guess you cant well have to keep with this the player that makes the room enters with his account then enters with a guests name and then he leaves the guest in there so the game stays for a while until he creates another one

There is no IP log tool. There is no IP ban tool. And anyone with minimal skills could evade such a tactic with a proxy or a modem IP release with a dynamic IP provider.

I think RyanKill's level 10 solution is excellent. That said, it requires Lopdo to step in and update that. For now, we still need to come to agreement on the best approach given the limited tool set.

Dawid0022 and Duncan17 (I think that's their names, check the pics) secret allied. Luckily us other players noticed soon enough and, eh, delivered our own punishment ;)

I'd say make it level 25. Virtually destroy all chances of game name trolling.
