It's kinda like if a Insurgent squad called themselves "Anti-American" or "Allah!"

So? What's your point?

Just because I'm not religious, does that mean I'm subject to squads being named that make fun of my nationality but religious folks get some kind of protection from such things?

Words don't mean a bloody thing to me. I'll admit I'd rather see squads named "SHAMWOW" over "JEWFUCK" [actual squad names I've seen], but honestly...Who cares?

I've never had a problem with the allah-ackbar, etc insurgent squads -> but the anti-jew ones are really offensive. It is possible to hard-code disallowed squad names, correct?Theres only a few racist terms you can put into a 4-6 digit name...

Why are people so easily offended? This is ridiculous, Nobody is forcing you to join squads with names that make you uncomfortable. I see nothing wrong with someone naming a squad LOLJEWS, HEBREWHAMMER, or ALLAH. Quit taking things so seriously, people need to realize this is just a game and nothing more. Its not like there are hategroups being founded inside PR because of these squad names...

I just find it funny that most people in Britain that complain about things to do with race or religion, for example 'golly-wogs' (no idea how to spell that) are usually old, white people that have nothing better to do other than complain about stuff.

Question:

Is anyone here that actually is Jewish offended by a squad that's called 'LOLJEW'?

Draakon · 02-14-2010, 04:11 PM

I don't care. I would if that squad or its members start acting against the rules.

SarafanPriest · 02-14-2010, 04:15 PM

I don't really care.

We all know Joker One is the only custom squadname that can be used.

As for the 'offensive' squad names, let the admins decide

age counts for nothing, its maturity that matters

You should try it. Feels good, and I don't miss any information that was worth hearing in the first place, since nothing on twitter ever is.

	Anything can be a weapon, anyone can be a threat. Never under estimate the combat ability of your opposition. He may seem weak and harmless now but even a dead man can carry a few pounds of explosives in his gut or deliver a decisive blow by rotting away in your water supply.
