I look forward for your opinions... huh? the fall of Constantinople... if it's a Turkish clan, it's obviously an EVIL tag. if it's a Greek clan, it's something along the lines of "remember the Alamo". some people might say Greece is a very expensive member of the EU. For me, its membership is invaluable, worth every single cent of all these billions it embezzled. lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BYOB] Aragathor Players 7,047 posts 32,326 battles Report post #4 Posted February 7, 2020 They should clearly change the tag to 1071 or 1204 then. Seriously, if a date triggers you, then you might ask yourself if you are in a right place head wise. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BOATY] Shaka_D Alpha Tester, Players, In AlfaTesters, Weekend Tester 3,691 posts 15,960 battles Report post #6 Posted February 7, 2020 This is why the world is totally screwed, because snowflakes take everything too seriously. Is a spear unethical or evil as used by our ancesters to hunt? Is a bow unethical or evil? Is a knife unethical or evil? Is a gun unethical or evil? I submit unto you fine people, and to you the jury, that these things are only at times used by evil people to commit evil acts, but in terms of their physical state of being, they are not evil in themselves..... To the OP I say this, some people have tiny minds and find joy in silly things. They may like to try invoke a reaction, or even sometimes wear something questionable as a badge of honour to show people in some way they support certain ideals....All you can do is forgive them for being ignorant..and don't get so easily triggered...it's not impacting your life in any way is it, other than you letting yourself get triggered by something so obscure? I see the principle you are referring to, but ethical values are not law until written into law so to speak. Ethics are also highly subjective and in this case, that number means nothing to me, though it does to you. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[THESO] MrWastee Players 4,255 posts 33,584 battles Report post #14 Posted February 7, 2020 as i understand it, it's like if a german clan would go with a [1871] tag? hmm.... imo let em be stupid and don't let em trigger u. to ban like every year in which something warlike happened within europe up to 1945 would end up in a ban of like ALL year tags b4 1945 lol. so, only solution to ur concern (if needed at all) would have to be a ban of year tags in general.

[BOATY] Shaka_D Alpha Tester, Players, In AlfaTesters, Weekend Tester 3,691 posts 15,960 battles Report post #16 Posted February 7, 2020 Man, I was raised fairly religious, so to me when I saw people with 666 in their name or as a clan tag I felt offended and even triggered at times. But any response from me was then just me being arrogant and self-righteous thinking everyone should adhere to my beliefs and principles. People are free to believe what they want, as long as they don't deliberately promote or enact hatred or break laws. I mean, let's look at this all realistically, so what if they don't want to listen to reason and so what if they don't go to heaven with me....maybe they live in a cold climate and like the idea of warmth and roasty feelings forever, mwwahahhahahahaa... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
