Axl Rose Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I am just leaving this statement open as I have come across a nation called: United States of ISIS And to me I find this offensive and should not be apart of the game as it supports islamic extremism and it also supports the mass murders of innocent people. My opinion is that the word ISIS has no place in the politics and war community as it is name that supports hate and death of inncent people!! What do you think? Should Islamic extremism be accepted in politics and war? ... Especially when considering that ISIS is murdering people as we speak?!?!?!!!!

Paul Warburg Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't agree with you. It's a name that will cause a lot of mischievous and cause war. something we need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Juan Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Hmm, well, this brings up the point should historical figures be brought up too, such as Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot etc, and even states that have committed genocide and other mass killings as well. The real question is, where do you draw the line, if you choose to have one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Brother Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Countless nations throughout history have been subverted by extremist ideologies and have murdered innocent people in gruesome ways, to achieve one goal or another. If we accept these nations and to some degree, their extreme ideologies, then we must accept this. You can dislike it, you can find it offensive, but all players have the right to name their nation whatever they desire, provided they abide by the game rules. You can always attack the nation in question, if it really irks you that badly. That's one of the great things about "free" countries, you can believe and say what you want, but you must also reap the consequences.

Red Huxley Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 It may be offensive, but that is their Right. I would be offended if we weren't allowed! "American Tankman" could be offensive to many people, it would be like "Taliban Gunman", which is distasteful, but allowed. Also, having the words ISIS in a nation or name, is a giant target for the people who hate them, like you and I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox is right and you do know there are Kim Jung Un players on here as well as Osama Bin Laden so why weren't they made mention here as well?

Placentica Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't like censoring anything IC. To censor is to remove creativity and richness of game play. It's realistic that we have people with ideologies that we don't agree with. That includes Nazis, ISIS, whatever extremism or non-extremism you can think of. Besides the point, ISIS, while I don't agree that death/killing/murder/bombs/etc are ever justified, is just doing what it can to win the war, a war it feels is being waged against it's values (as much as I disagree with them!). You could argue that drone strikes and all the bombs dropped in the middle east that killed so many innocents are just as disgusting. What matters is that Sheepy determines what is "moral" or not and whatever is immoral, he bans or tells us not to participate in. Whatever is moral is acceptable in terms of IC gameplay. We are just RP'ing here like a bunch of nerdballs. 2 Quote Hello!

SoS Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 But why? Why can I have my name be Chairman Mao? Mao killed FAR more people than Hitler did both directly AND indirectly. But it's ok to have him be your leader name? I guess some genocidal dictators are better than others right? It probably has something to do with the ethnic and religious make up here. I doubt Sheepy is Taiwanese, so Mao is ok...etc, etc. Then again, Hitler did the most !@#$ed up shit in human history. Anyone that disputes that is ignorant. Anyone that wants to glorify or rp that hideous shit should be ostracized anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the legions of dead he created, along with how many of his own that he got killed, I would say that if hitler is not allowed, stalin and mao should be right there with him.
