Could be like in The Sims Online. When you were removed from a house there was a cool animation where you are turned around and kicked in the butt on your way. Then you are ejected from the house into map view with a message letting you know. Now that was harsh (though hillarious).

Top Ten suggestions for replacing the phrase 'you have been ejected from the group.'
10. This group, groupname, has been removed from your group list.
9. Ya done bin kicked out!
8. Will everyone in the group please step forward. Not so fast you...
7. OMG all your money has been deducted! No just kidding. But you have been taken out of the group. Doesn't feel so bad does it?
6. Guess what group you go ejected from? We ain't telling!
5. You have been tossed out, thrown away, spit on the floor, get out!
4. Whereupon the party, groupname, and the person, yourname, have ceased to maintain the agreed upon relationship.
3. Look, you're a jackass allright? What did you expect?
2. Gollum.. Gollum... Leave now and never come back!
1. Sorry Phillip but we got a new CEO.

From: Ricardo Harris Oh, you're right, my bad. This issue of removing the word "eject" is something that the sl world should stop for. There's nothing more important at the moment then this mean ol' word just tearing terribly into the minds of sl's population. Now how did this word "eject" ever get past linden?
I mean, this is something that's "extremely valid and useful" for them to consider. And yes, it would be a nice "upgrade" this way no one gets their sensitive little feelings hurt in the process.
What in the world was I thinking? Let me make amends, how about we begin a long list with lots more trivial things to bring to Lindens attention. I'm sure if everyone tries real hard we can find some more, no? Right, Ricardo. We should never talk about anything other than the very top priority. Since you're not talking about the top priority, please be consistent with your own values and stop posting.

Reminds me of this old 8-bit Nintendo game I once had, "Friday the 13th", based on the series of horrible movies. When you die, or fail to maintain a particularly important game objective (either instance resulting in a loss), a black screen with simple white text informs you that
YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS ARE DEAD. GAME OVER.
or
JASON WIPED OUT ALL THE KIDS. GAME OVER.
The most awesome game-over screen in the history of video games.

I'm sure if everyone tries real hard we can find some more, no? Well we give them fixes we think they can handle and work up from there.  Thta's why I prefer just changing the word "ejected" to "removed", rather than a custom message which involves poking with the code and possibly breaking something. And stop acting like a cranky old fart............
