NationStates Jolt Archive

Hi I am new to this game and I would like to bring atention to a thread in the top category of these forums 'Legoverland in Limbo - Help' here is the link to it

http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=100382&start=0

It is regarding my nations national animal and currency, do I really have to change them.

I would like to know so that I can pursue my intentions of fully enjoying my experience with NationStates - the game.

Interesting case here. Legoverland's national animal is the Beaver and its currency is the Screw.

On their own, neither of these are offensive IMHO (although the currency is pushing it). I believe that Oregon IRL is the "Beaver State." However, the combination of the two can be construed as offensive. Furthermore, the intent is clearly intended as a sexual reference, which would not be in order.

I'd be curious to see what a Game Mod thinks.

A more detailed thread was posted in the NationStates Forum, which will serve as the appropriate thread for discussing this issue. That thread has now been moved to the Moderation Forum.
