Google Holocaust

[red99]

People are getting banned in game for all kinds of reasons regarding "speech"


Yet an entire guild with a guild name of only (one) implied meaning in modern times, doesnt get banned or have to change its name?



Holcaust isnt "the holocaust" ...............................right.

Google it, or go outside and ask someone in RL what they first think of when they hear the word "holocaust".


There is no argument here, just a statement.


Ban everyone, or no one. Unless burning Jewish people, and pushing them into mass graves is less of an issue than making fun of someones sexuality, or godforbid their skin color !

[red99]

I will overlook that you guys never go outside, and have never asked another human what they think of your elf sim guild named "holocaust" .

For the sake of the troll.


To further move your pointless dribble ahead, I agree with you, make a solid policy, and enforce it. That is the point of this thread.

All or nothing


I am leaning toward the latter, because this is getting stupid, one guy trying to police 300 racist retards is not going to work.
Just ends up being more and more petition quest as we have all seen.

WTS education, pst

[red99]

Your right sirken


Holocaust has so many meanings


I use the word in casual conversation all the time because I am not afraid of what people might think.

I make T shirts with the word "HOLOCAUST" on it, and walk around New York City, because it is not offensive at all.


Please educate me.

There's been a resurgence of caring about naming policy after a long hiatus. Personally it feels like there has been a lot of cherry picking already and almost seems futile to attempt to enforce at this point. If it were enforced Azrael = banned, Holocaust = banned, Suave = banned, Fresh = probably safe.

is this is troll? literally everyone on this server laughs about how retarded and inconsistent your rulings are, and how everytime you stream it's no more than bongripped muttering nonsense for 3 hours. please don't sell education to anyone.

[MavstabYoudead]

wonder if there was a poll how many people would associate the word holocaust with that definition or with the events from the world wars...

[Glenzig]

Lots of hurt feelings in this thread. I think yall might need to see your therapists early this week.

[heartbrand]

Nothing on the interwebs offends me, and I'd wear a guild tag of ISIS, but let's not kid ourselves, a guild named holocaust would never get approved on eq live, or probably any video game. Having said that, people offended by words are morans.

[Bodybagger]

The term holocaust has been used to describe nuclear war countless times in the past 20+ years and no one has lost their minds over news reporters saying "Nuclear holocaust"

You are looking for reasons to be offended. The guild name in no way offends and never once did I look at the name and think anything other than the definition of holocaust... never even considered the Jewish race/religion when seeing the tag.... and I hate <Holocaust> (well I hate zergs)

Taking offense to that is stupid. <Holocaust> is no different than <Annihilation>, <Obliteration> <Decimation> etc to me... but I'm educated beyond the 4th grade and reading Elie Weisel's "Night" so I've seen the word used to describe many more events than THE Holocaust.

If they can say it on the news without referencing THE Holocaust, and no one loses their minds.... you are probably just being a giant gaping sandy vagina. When the FCC is being less sensitive than you.... you lose ALL man cards. Instantly. Forever.

Rename your guild to Nuclear Holocaust then.



Holocaust without anything else, is "the holocaust"


"holocaust survivors" , do they say " The holocaust survivors?

Nope.


Again this thread is not about hurt feelings, it is about all or nothing.


Holocaust guild tag, and Colgate's name and RL attacks on nizzar are about as inconsistent as you can get with enforcement.

Apparently everyone is an internet tough guy now tho, but yet 100 petitions go in a day over hurt feelers being "offended" trying to get each other rule lawyered off the server

Look here junior... it isn't MY guild. Don't ever refer to it as such again. As stated, I hate Holo and hate the zerg, but I'm not going to be a pussy and try to censor their name. Split them up 10 times and make them have 9 other guild names that aren't offensive, who cares. <Holocaust> is just fine. How is it offensive? In what way? By saying the name? Is the Holocaust like lord voldemort to you? SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU PUSSY.

<Holocaust> is less offensive than <God's Work> or whatever the name was honestly. But I don't care, why would I try and censor someone based on my own insecurities? Are you even Jewish? Has anyone complaining been Jewish? I think the fact that you so single mindedly relate the word Holocaust to slaughter of the Jewish peoples, you might have issues.

tl;dr<Nuclear Holocaust> isn't offensive to you, but <Holocaust> is = You are an imbecile. I am <Flowers of Happiness> Not a zerg. I have no horse in this race other than battling your commie ideals trying to censor something that isn't offensive in any way, other than you seeming to have offensive views yourself.

I am jewish and i find the tag holocaust offensive because it represents an event and period of time where millions of my people were incinerated, gassed, shot, and annihilated. If you cant respect that then you have a serious issue.

[Bodybagger]

and as for the whole "that name exists in real life" thing... eh... doesn't effect immersion for me. It's names like "tarbaby" and "Fagina" that are intended to be repugnant that I find obnoxious. or Ililililillillli as a name... I don't even much mind the bank names, that shit is classic.

Classic naming policy enforment was designed to make it punishable to be a dick. Meaning if oyu had an obnoxious name and people called you out on it for in game behavior as well, it got changed as part of punishment for you being an annoying turd. GM's didn't just go around nerfing names left and right... though I did get Quietriot nerfed as a name, after some douche reported it, because it's an 80's hair metal band... but it's a damn fine bard name... *Shrug*

Just pronounce Colgate "Kawl- gay-tee" if it is affecting your immersion because of you RL knowledge of something else by the same name...

[red99]

bodybagger its not about less offensive or more offensive


its about offensive or not


its about RL attack or not


its about some level of consistency with rulings


Holocaust is offensive, go outside and ask someone in the real world
Colgate is a RL attack on nizzar


In a perfect online world, no one would be getting banned for "words" i agree, but when yous selectively ban or remove ooc privlages, there is a problem.

[Ragnaros]

The name colgate is a violation of the naming policy, it clearly states something that is trademarked or copyrighted as a product, brand, or game is against the rules. Colgate is a trade marked toothpaste company

[Bodybagger]

Do you play EQ on Sabbath? Did you play during Hanukkah? How Jewish are you? To what extent should I respect your Judaism and your choices to take offense to a word that existed long before an dlong after THE holocaust? Is that YOUR word now? Sounds like excessive sensitivity on your part not a lack of any on mine.

If their guild was <Hitler's Army> or something to that effect, sure ban them all, change the name, whatever. It isn't though. It is a term related to warfare on a PVP server.... if anything, they should be forced to lsoe the name because it's a pretty cool PVP guild name and they don't PVP. Everyone calls them Holo anyways, change their name to <Hollow> as punishment for PVP'less zerging the server lol. But because they suck, not because you are a pussy and take offense to a stupid word. Why would you ever give power to a word like that?

FYI, amngst the top 8 Holocaust related searches on google is holocaust jokes... perhaps you should be offended by your own suggestion to google holocaust and go bitch to google. They obviously have a serious issue.

[Glenzig]

I had family that died in The Holocaust. Doesn't offend me one bit. I actually think its a pretty cool name for a pvp guild.

[Ragnaros]

Didnt read, dudes prolly a retard

[Samsung]

I'm half jewish half Italiano. I talked to my Jewish family members about the game and that there is a clan on the video game that I play called Holocaust, they were all pretty offended that a game allows a name like this.

I feel as a member of the Jewish community that if the CSR staff is serious about offensive names that they should consider holding a meeting and discuss the matters of this guild name.

The csr staff wants Red to be less toxic, well when new players come to this server and they see guild names like Holocaust or player offensive names they are already seeing a form of toxicity.

You can say we are not educated but saying that is pure ignorance, my grand parents and great grand parents went through hell and they themselves know more about what happened and educated my parents, myself and my family.


You want to clean up this server? Show the server by deleting that awful offensive name.

[Bodybagger]

You guys make no compelling argument. You acknowledge that holocaust is its own word and has a definition and is different from THE holocaust... I have never once heard reference or seen anything discussed about Holo being anti semetic in any way in any form within the game. it doesn't hold water. You're grasping at straws.

Push the Colgate issue more, it's a better point as far as any naming policy violation goes. But still a weak attack *shrug*

I don't take anything personally in game in terms of naming etc, but if you are going to claim to be cleaning up the names, guild names, etc then there is no way holocaust should be allowed.

I just love the part where <Nuclear Holocaust> is fine to you but just <Holocaust> makes them anti-Semites... you're a genius.

I still want a response from you on if you play during Sabbath and Hanukkah. I need to know to which extent you respect your own Judaism regarding playing in the box before I make any decisions on how much others need to respect YOUR religion within the box. Never seen one anti-Semitic remark from Holo. They suck in many ways, but trying to put this spin on it as an offensive anti Jew guild or Nazi supporting guild is absurd. I hope you understand how wildly offensive it is to your own peoples to be so petty and absurd.

It's used up.

[HippoNipple]

Don't you guys worry about Holocaust and the naming policy. Leave it to the GMs and white knights of the server to do what is right. If it was against the rules Holocaust wouldn't have named themselves that from the start because they do everything right.

The GMs are aware of the name and are enforcing the rules so you can be assured that the judgement has been made.

trolling by pretending to be Jewish, or even trolling with legit Judaism = confirmed 100% more toxic than a guild named <Holocaust>

Things I learned about the American education system from this thread.

- Americans don't know that holocaust is a generic word that is used all the time in newspapers, literature, and television.
- Americans think the jewish holocaust was the only holocaust that ever happened in history.
- Americans think that jewish people were the only targeted population by the Nazis
- Americans don't realize that there were many holocausts in that century, some of which involved millions more deaths (see the Beglain massacres in the Congo)

If you say so. It's offensive. If "yomama" is offensive there is no argument that can be made that holocaust is not offensive. GMs can save their holier than thou attitude in regards to education unless they want to post their college information.

[Humerox]

I've always been offended by the fact that the word has been warped to mean a single event in human history. Other events that include mass genocide must be defined to include the Armenian Holocaust, the Cambodian Killing Fields, the Bosnians, the Rwandan Genocide, Native Americans, The Black Holocaust, the Sudanese, etc. The Jewish Holocaust deserves the same treatment.

That said, the definition of The Jewish Holocaust usually includes "The". If the guild name were "The Holocaust" it may be different.

This argument is old and tired. It's an acceptable guild name for P99.

With that said, the guild name is CLEARLY offensive and I don't understand how anybody can find it inoffensive. I think it's in incredibly poor taste. That the word can technically apply to any genocide does not change the fact that for hundreds of millions of people across this planet, the word immediately conjures images of a specific bitter and personal tragedy.

Voluntarily changing the name costs them nothing and may allow them to recruit those who are too personally offended by the name to join up...just saying!

More offensively, they also suggest Holocaust JOKES as like #3 of the top 8 suggested searches. CAN YOU IMAGINE? Google jokes about THE holocaust. Google is so insensitive.

It also suggests you stop looking at Holocaust and instead look at Anne Frank? The holocaust is super cereal Google... I don't have time to look at childish girly unicorn and rainbow stickers!

holocaust definitely is an insensitive name. I would also put money that the name originally came about intending to troll people given the ambiguity of how you can interpret it.

do i have a problem with it, especially given im jewish? Yea a little bit. Do i give that much of a fuck? Nah, not really.

This whole name policy is fucking retarded and so is how it is being enforced. but its r99, so either you deal with it or you get out. there will always be tears one way or the other

[magician]

Hehe are U Mad?

[heartbrand]

I knew I always liked dacuk. Now that I know he's jewish I understand why.

[Jimmybones]

Holocaust is a very general term referring to a mass slaughter or genocide. Now if the guild was named "Shoah" that would be a pretty different story.

[Nihilist_santa]

I had family that died in The Holocaust. Doesn't offend me one bit. I actually think its a pretty cool name for a pvp guild.

Sorry your grandpa fell from the guard tower. He will be missed.

Here is to 6 million more Fungi Tunics! Pras Holocaust!

consistency please.
i'd rather the only game i actually play with all adults didn't have the harshest censorship, but if that's the way it has to be at least make it across the board, jesus christ.

Still getting a good laugh out of Sirken, who is notoriously known for smoking pot on his streams while he represents the server, nerfing the name Cannabis.

my thoughts on his name dont matter. BUT what does matter is that i found a "Elf Name" generator, and it is providing me the many entertainments


edit- and drugs r bad

I'm sure Holocaust members don't really give a shit what their guild name is.

If GMs make 'em change it, I'm sure all Holocaust members will collectively shrug their shoulders and move on with their lives, with zero fucks given.

[quido]

No I will throw a FUCKING FIT

No you don't understand. My family are the secret descendants of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun.

Soon kids will Google Holocaust for a project and start learning about the ever quest guild and thus become new player base.

shits deep son, I like

[SamwiseRed]

as a native american i am offended that these forums are hosted by servers on my lands.

rip fatheadfrank

fucking elf name generator jesus

thats the biggest grief since gronkus stealing box. sirken stealing our names.

[red99]

If you dont have a sense of humor and cant be called a faggot 50 times a day, you have no business playing this game.

Since you people are too stupid to see what this thread is about . I'll make it simple.



Stop banning people, changing names, or enforcing random rules that no one even knows about.


The guild name holocaust is offensive, but thats not the point. Selective police work is the problem here.

Ether a rule exists or it doesn't. Unless sirken just likes doing random shit , then he should just come out and say so.

Free server, unpaid GM, Deal with it, etc.

I have a few friends that are colored
