You should write a letter to the Mormon Church and find out if seeing the name "I'mamormoncommunist" in a video game would offend them.

P.S. Wtf I don't even know what a letter is. Email or send a clay tablet by carrier pigeon.

What was the last name?

if it wasn't "all'mormons'are'communist" I fail to see the problem.

What does political preference have to do with religion? I wasn't aware communists were not allowed to practice our religion.

What gets me are the radicals who have a "MAKE YOU DO THE RIGHT THING" attitude? ya those guys.
I'm confused... I was taught that was Lucifer's plan? you know, to Make everyone do the right thing, so everyone makes it back to heaven?

Personally, I respect the free agency given to us by Christ and if its Tikk's CHOICE to mock our religion, thats between him and god. I KNOW whats right for me, and no amount of his mocking will change my mind anyway.

Also, I'm thankful for people like Tikk, his mocking is simply a test of faith for me. Do I stand true by my beliefs? or do I give in to peer presure because its not popular?

Asking him to remove it? I agree with. Reporting him to force him to remove it? I don't.

so that was the specific last name?

Again, I wasn't aware Communists were banned from the religion.

But hey, thats common sense, thats not following the mickey mouse bullshit mob mentality of black and white and no other possible options.

/Shrug.

A name that is offence or can be taken offence influence the enjoyment of the players game play ever time they cross path, its not up to you to Judge whats is Offence that's already in the Eula, if its not then the player shouldn't really be offended by it because the Company of the game has laid the ground rules and if its not fit him, then he should play another game

Tikk or whatever broken the Eula, a player Petition him for it, a Tikk got punished by SoE, sure we can argue all night about the wrongness of his punishment but it doesn't really Mather because its set by SoE and not by any player. you entered attack on Fezik has no meaning or Ground, since he just did something that Eula stated he should do if he get offended by something and SoE agreed whit him...

Tikk was a idiot for taking a name that could lead to this and if he was a casual player we never had this tread its just he was a hardcore raider and ever thing something goes against you guys you CRY for fucking weeks. grow the fuck up and take responsibility for you action and stop Crying...

Ahh well see, there ya go. I'm pretty sure running jokes *are* offensive to the mormon religion (same with any other religion, BTW)

-h

it was said earlier.... by tikk... that the joke was about him.

Since the EULA or naming policy states something along the line of "nothing religion" then can I /petition SOE for breaking their own policy by creating an NPC named a Samhain?

No no no no....
It's only if it is in refrence to one of the major (see money making, billions of followers or fanatical) religious sects.
Plus, they probably realize that anyone who celebrates actual Samhain is most likely NOT going to be a little bitch who cries about seeing the word or vague reference to their beliefs..
