do you think we should allow things like:

*****
Fritz
Tommy
American pig dog etc.

on the servers?

if you think we should say yes and no no :P

please if you reply could you leave a reason/suggestion to why you find it offensive/amusing (but still justify its presence)

bear in mind all modern day racism and more offensive terms are still looked upon with the up most severity.

If its used just for a joke then its fine

after all they are hollow insults, not even racist really.

ok |<rauts censored........... no but as we live in a pc age, can it be determined whether or not people are using it as an excuse to be racist?

i would think it should be taken in to context ... it's not meant as something nasty, but if someone on there says "hey don't say that" etc.. then you don't say it ... no need to upset anyone.

what about things such as Himmler and Hitler and such sort...people try to argue that its in the context of the game but for me i would say thats stepping over the line.

I think maybe things like "You ****ing Nazi *******s" should be a kick and maybe a ban

May I remind you of your joke when you played for the "Nazi"'s you said "Sh1t it's hard to play when my left hand keeps going up" :P
Bugstomper

i didn't say sh1t ... but i said the rest, and everyone on the server laughed .. if someone had said "hey i don't find that funny" then i would have apologised, unlike you my little clogger who would have kept doing it just to wind the person up :P

"Silence you Englisch pig dog"

I think what Carrot has said seems reasonable but I have noticed a number of trouble spots. One game, I was on german side and we were hopelessly outnumbered. We all pleaded for them to even the teams but nothing happened apart from someone saying, "I'm never going to be a *insert expletive* German, ever!!" This could have been upsetting to, particularly, German players and really, he deserved to be booted off the server.
The other form I have seen is players calling each other things like Tommies, Heinrich etc. Nobody was offended as far as I could tell, but there are quite a lot of narrow minded people who open their mouth before engaging their brains. Ultimately, I think it is at the discretion of players involved, and if someone is offended, a simple apology is needed then back on with the game.

Is that what you said to all those little german children you made cry in the servers.

Virus pleaded with you to stop, i've never seen such compassion in a dutch boy before.

But you wouldnt stop, you kept going and going till they finally snapped, selling you their land rights.

Now they have no where to live, because of you BUG, BECAUSE OF YOU.
