Why is this topic locked?
Sorry to create a new one but wanted to post.

Why does Stephanie always locks topics in wich the right (centre right till much more right) is brought on its knees?
It is not about being right or left, my friends see me as one on the centre (centre in a EU country) with left accents.
But I find younot a neutral moderator. You locked a topic about Bush in wich you statet (here in this forum) that the anti Bushers were flaming, I never saw you doingthe oposite.
A lott off people talk about your political views that are translted in your decissions, mostly this even continous on world wide fora like The Third Reich forum (altough the name, a non political but military site, US made but world wide and member off the select club off Military History sites).

Can you give me please an example in where you take the same action agains "flaming" off right wingers? And off course I am not talking about anything real racist but just political.

Please?

Sory for the typos and bad English.

Thank you!
But I saw a debate about the (wrong!) name off a guy that names himself with a name related to The Third Reich and than I see a guiy that is still posting under the Name off the Croat nazi movement "Ustacha" that has killed all jews there. In Croate it is Usta~sa, with the ~ above the "s" (sorry can not type that).
It is like creating a state name under "SS" or "NSDAP" this really offended some jewish friends..
This movement was convicted by tribunals because off their part inthe holocaust, their leader was Ante Pavelic.
This can not be tolerated (the name)

This has been debated too many times already.

You are accusing Stephistan of right-wing bias? Suffice to say, you are incorrect. You would be in a better position to understand this had you spent longer than two weeks in the game prior to coming to such conclusions, and demanding evidence to the contrary.

As for nation names which include the names of racist organisations, that is generally not against the rules. It has been discussed countless times before. A nation with SS or NSDAP in its name is acceptable, provided it does not have a swastika in its flag, have any identifiable human subgroup as a national animal or currency, or make a direct racist insult in its national motto field. In such cases, action is taken, but people tend to stay within these rules. I would ask players not to turn this thread into a further discussion of this policy, as it would be going off-topic and repeating things said every couple of weeks since the beginning of time. The above basically sums it up.

I will leave this unlocked to allow Stephistan to respond to this personally. In the meantime, please do not stray from the topic.

EDIT: Actually, there has been a very recent thread along very similar lines, to which Mod responses were given. So, unless another Mod wishes to comment further, locking.

Yep, I'm busted.. I'm really a neo-con. I showed a bias in favour of the right wing. This of course shouldn't surprise any one who knows me.. After all I'm such a conservative. Those damn liberals! ;)
