This could easily be fixed by requiring guild submissions to be accompanied by an academic paper on:

1. the meaning of the guild name
2. the merits of the guild name
3. the history and etymology of the guild name
4. the mission and goals of the guild
5. full reports on the life and morals of all guild leaders and founding officers
6. a description of how the guild will apply morals and ethics to modern day norrath
7. accurate citations

And then only approved if the guild is deemed worthy.

or you could use common sense and not make guilds like holocaust or blacks or let people run around with names like phaghagg in guilds called gay blades or you could not allow a dude to run around named kuntikuntay or nigs but fuck it lets get on the forums and pretend like we give a shit and it only happens because someone has a thesaurus and is willing to act dense as fuck

My post was not meant to rustle you. But I see that it did.

Holocaust has a meaning independent of WW2. It's a word in the english language. We cannot change everything on the server because it may or may not offend someone.

Fag and ****** are not words they are slang terms that were created solely to offend with bias. Names like Phaghaag already do violate the naming policy, blacks could also be considered a guild name violation.

Trying to equate Holocaust to the word Fag or ****** is a clear sign that you either lack critical thinking skills or a firm grasp on the rudimentary fundamentals of the english language.

Also I googled holocaust cupcakes and did not find many offensive images [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If Derubael gives an answer you aren't satisfied with, PM Rogean/Nilbog with your concern and any problems you have with Derubael otherwise.

I didnt mean to call derubael a silly bastard, that part was meant for the other guy. I was only bringing up that derubaels argument was a semantic one.

I dont even play on red I am just offended by the name.

I also have a new semantics argument for you. The guild name "Sand ******" would be ok because sand can also mean the finely divided rocks and minerals you find at a beach. This would imply that we are a bunch of beach loving black folk, and not necessarily a person from the middle east.

harnold what sort of fucking creature are you

Swyft you are still a silly bastardo. "Holocaust" and "holocaust" are two different things.
