Rainbow Six Siege caster wants "inappropriate" map callout to be renamed

Rainbow Six Siege caster Parker 'Interro' Mackay has called for the Kids Dormitory location on the map Oregon to be renamed because it often leads to uncomfortable commentary during games. The bombsite is often colloquially shortened to "Dorms", but this can be confusing when the area is referred to by different names by different players and casters.

"As a caster, the word 'kids' sounds awful when said alongside other callouts," explains Interro in a tweet, "leading to awkward and inappropriate phrasing." He says he is fed up of having to navigate around awkward and "horrible phrasing" while in the heat of casting a match. As one of the biggest esports games, Siege tournaments are broadcast across the world and a change could aid both casters and players.

Interro says that consistency is key to help newer players. "Standardizing callouts helps everyone," he explains. "There really shouldn't be multiple names for the same room. It gets confusing. Consistency is really important, especially for newer viewers." He says that the location needs to be renamed in-game to ease confusion and to make sure that callouts are standardised across players, casters, and fans.
