*bows* lol thank you , thank you very much jk

Lol

I'll just put it simply.
It's a game. They can call themselves whatever they want. They mean no disrespect to anyone. They are just here to have fun and role-play. If you have a problem with it, then stay away from Warlight. This is what Warlight is about and if you don't like it, then that's too bad.

Lion :p

i wasnt able to read more than the first 10 posts or so, but brIAn is an idiot

we all know you love me, noob.

Jeez, I didn`t know it was such a big deal for germans. I, as a dutchman, think the second world war is very interesting. The use of the media, and the first time the world was at war in total. I know some germans, and all of them so far have told me that they think the war is very interesting and they have no problems with nazi`s or Hitler or anything (in a way of talking about them or even make jokes about it, not in a way of worshipping them :p)

The argument that they did horrible things is not a good one imo, cause in most wars and in most empires the enemies had a hard time. But history is written by those who are victorious, so from empires like the roman empire you hear a lot less. We only know so much about the holocaust because of the documents and the fact that we can examine things from the second world war. Media played a big role in it. The idea of an ideal race isn`t new and will probably always stay in the minds of some tirans.

Because the war was one of the more recent ones it is logical that people are less happy to hear about it than they are when talking about empires of over 1000 years old. But if you are born in the years `70 or later (especially if you are younger than 30 now) you should leave it behind. It has happened, we can`t change anything about it and the people that are alive now don`t have anything to do with it. I think everybody should be able to talk about it freely if they want. If these guys want to name their clan after things from nazi-germany thats fine by me, it is the same as you name yourself Napoleon or Julius Caesar. As long as they are not accually neo-nazi`s nor forcing other people to be part of their "third reich role-playing" it is ok for me.

I've had time to do some thinking about this and came to this conclusion.

Masterpierround - In a way you're right. The Mongols were largely detested for a large part of history because of their conquests, but are viewed more favorably today because Genghis was a brilliant strategist who used his military to created the largest land empire in recorded history and was followed by several capable generals who managed to maintain the empire for several centuries.

My animosity towards the T4R is grounded in the fact that a couple of ignorant players who have no concept of WWII except for what they read in books (reading a book doesn't make you an expert), are trying to play psydo-Nazi because they're cool now.

Never mind that under Hitler's rule my great grandfather sat 8 years in Siberia, my great grandmother was persecuted for her faith and my grandfather lived through the battle of Berlin as an 8 year old and still has nightmares. But I shouldn't be offended, because this is just a game.

That's just my family, there are millions who have suffered a worse fate. You think because I didn't live through the war that I didn't suffer or feel the impact? America has never fought a major war on their soil, I don't wanna hear that shit from those ignorant children.

Lawlz - You should just stay off the forums, you attract negative attention to yourself.

I'm ending my active participation in this thread, go glorify your Führer and his military machine, you can get his autograph when you meet him.

I know it is horrible what happened to your grandparents and I understand you don`t like it. What I was trying to say is that it wasn`t a special thing to happen in war. Just because it is fresh and still in peoples memories shouldn`t mean that they can`t talk about it (or in this case role-play about it). I did not say that anything that happened wasn`t horrible, nor that you can`t be offended about it. I just tried to say that there isn`t a real good reason to say they can`t do what they are doing now.

hmm empathy, good taste, respect... three of a thousand reasons to go illogical, and decide not to have fun playing that role..

Guys, there's a clan that's called something that's resembles Nazis, we should go treat it as if they are really Nazis. Its just a clan in a war game, get over it. If it hits you in a soft spot, keep it to yourself. They didn't mean to offend you. They aren't gonna delete their clan just because can't take it that their clan resembles Nazi Germany and Hitler.



TL;DR Their clan is called T4R. Get over it, keep your thoughts about it to yourself.

Joining silly clans like T4R, UN, United Warlight or what not is part of the silly nerd boys way through adolescence.

I want to thank everyone who stood up for the clan. Hauptmann, I'm sorry for what happened to your family, but don't use a game for your output. Until I know you any better, that's as far as my sympathy extends.
I'll repeat, T4R does not glorify Nazism or condone any of the atrocities committed in the Second World War. It is roleplay, and only roleplay.

Oh I'm sorry, HAUPTMAN, didn't realize you were the only one with family involved in WWII, oh wait you're not, you little prick. My late great-grandfather was a WWII veteran. Tho I was never in the war, I feel I've experienced it a little through his stories. It is horrifying. But nothing T4R does glorifies or supports nazis. This is what I meant by saying you were ignorant.

This is what I meant by saying you were ignorant.

the kettle calling the teapot black. Go away Lawlz.

Wow, brain. didn't know you were even relevant to this thread. oh, yeah......youre not.

ahh, I just like fucking with you brain. Its fun :)

yeah funny watching you make a fool out of yourself ;)

ikr :D

Brain and Lawlz, stop fighting. Just apologize to each other, get over it and play warlight like you were before this stupid thread.
