HITLER-SS (Re-opened)
Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 3:58 pm
I'm sorry for reopening the "Processed Request", but I cannot reply to the previous post. Even though I accept your rejecting of the request, I do find your reasoning questionable. As I mentioned in the previous post, I think HITLER-SS was a complete idiot. I've enjoyed several hundreds of ENT-games, but never met anyone like him. First of all, I do not think he should be banned for his statements on the demise of our world economy or for his support of Nazis. Shouting political statements in a Legion TD Mega-game without even knowing the basic values is just a desperate cry for attention. Even though I find the name offensive, Blizzard allowed him to create that accountname. But the constant threathening of our team, claiming that he would come find us, knowing our real names and adresses got to a point of excessive flaming. I do realize that the ignore-button exist, but is that really the only solution?
Also, what the hell is this reasoning? "Being nazi isn't bannable, would be discrimination. It's like if your not jewish you don't play on ent. Your black? Wt* you doing on ENT! .. Hmm, no. You can believe in what you want, being any color you want etc.. even if all disagree with you. Here's is the freedom, with some rule to follow." I do not want to mix ethics and politics with an enjoyable old-school computergame, but there must be a line for what is accepted? I find it very ironically that you use freedom as an argument to protect views such as Nazism. I do believe that you can support whatever political and ethical values that you want, but don't express them offensively in a online-game. Importantly, I do not claim that being a nazi should be bannable, but it is CERTAINLY not like saying "ENT games is only for jews or blacks". It is definately not only jews or blacks that find Nazism offensive, and please don't try to turn anti-nazism into some kind of "We love only jews and blacks-community". Who taught you that? Would that also mean, that if I would suggest that comments regarding the enjoyable moments of child-rape should be kept out of ENT, that I suddenly only wanted the games playable for people with the same view as me? Seeing that players from Europe, Asia and USA play together on your servers, a vast landscape of different political opinions and values must be present, but where is the line? Can I cheer for the american school shootings, breiviks killings, rapes in New Delhi and so on?
