I too tried not to reply. Sorry, Neblin.
By bullying I do understand not allowing someone to feel offended by stating that they have no right to do so, just because the louder team thinks that something is funny. You were harsh and aggressive in your post, and mine is a paraphrase of your tone. (I personally find offensive when players replace themselves to moderators and tell people to take their issues somewhere else. But that's me)
It is not the same thing to say that the jokes about the atomic bomb, the holocaust, you have it, are bad taste, or to tell people to just put up with it because they are jokes. Again, what you find funny might be offensive, and very much so, to others. And this is a PG rated game, so yes, you do have to be very careful with what you post.
I understand perfectly well various meanings and subtleties of the word "politics". But I agree you shouldn't have brought it up, if you were going to use it wrongly.
And I suggest we continue this discussion over PM if you really want to. |

| No thank you, I am done. I do not believe I said anything wrong or offensive. But that's my opinion, and you have yours. Regardless of opinionated conflicts, whatever we were trying to do here seems a pointless effort at this point, and this conversations needs to end now. |

Nobody meant any harm at all on this thread. All I can see is a bunch of people I really like accidentally having an argument, because the internet can't pick up tone of voice etc.
A lot of phrases are open to multiple interpretations, and I think people have quite innocently written things which are open to misinterpretation. |

Wow, wait... What? Guys, you've been arguing in my absence again... -_-
j/ks
And to clear that all up, I didn't mean any harm in that post. It was intended to be funny, and yes, I do know the seriousness of the holocaust (I'm Jewish), and i'm not trying to reflect upon that grim topic anyway.
In any case, I just wanted to start up this thread for laughter. Lets enjoy ourselves, yes? ^^

Guys, I'm sorry to double - post but i feel this needs to be said and looked at by the GMs.
I am making a request to shut down this thread.
It was meant for fun, but so far, it has only brought me great sadness. i would rather see it removed, lest it make my birthday in 2 days time an unhappy occasion. I do not wish to see our community split like this, and certainly not on my behalf. Please, just take it down.  |

Hush.
If all arguments in the forum meant that the community was about to split, then the game would have died ten years ago. I can't speak for everyone, but I take this as an incident with no consequences apart from what was already discussed, and at the time they were being discussed. I think everyone agreed to move on.
I might be wrong, but I think talking about things helps people getting along better, in the end, rather than the other way round.  |

Cassandra, this is true. the main reason i wish to see the thread gone is because it has brought me nothing but grief since it started.
But you raise a good point, so i shall leave it up to the player base to decide.
I'm out though. |

Ahh, what the heck, taking it in stride i'm going to put up pics again. I'll try to be more careful in my choices but if you think I'm overstepping the line just tell me and i'll take it down. In any case, I hope I can smile upon this thread again.

And I'll be blatantly off topic and leave a reminder of a site full of stereotype-based humour that is likely to offend a lot of us (or to make us laugh ). |

And if all arguments with Cassandra meant she would hate you for twenty minutes, I don't think she would speak to me for a hundred years.
Also, Roy Greenhilt - I feel your pain! |
