Default Can someone enter their business name as a user name?

My friend owns a small performance shop and wants to join LS1 tech and as his user name use "CP Performance" because that is his user name on all sites he registers as well as his business. He is obviously not a sponsor and would not become one nor would he pan for business. He does part out f-body's and would probably frequent the for sale section and i was wanting to ask the admins either permission or denial and thoughts on him registering under his shops name so as not to stir any trouble from the get-go. Thanks for whatever your answer is. Craig

Let's put it like this, it's frowned upon.

When folks do that, and then start giving advice, and talking about products, it cuts it close. To use any other name avoids the issue(however all non-sponsor guidelines still apply in full effect).

OK guys thanks, that answers it. He will just have to use a different user name and of course follow the same rules of posting and waiting the required time before selling parts like anyone. I just saw a new user register yesterday with a business name so that was my opportunity to ask. Thank you for the quick response! Have a great day! Craig
