Schorgenland has made another puppet.

Its name is "JudenRaus".

If you dont know German......that means.."jews out!"

Please tell me this is not appropriate.

It certainly isn't, I hope. You should file this in getting help (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=help). But, a mod will probably see this one and fix it anyway. I just learned that these go in getting help, see inapropriate flag post I wrote. Anyway, I hope they deat him, cause that is very inaproriate (too say the least). :x

Forum problems go here.

Game problems go to the Getting Help Page.

If it's a large region, snap a screenshot and post it here.
If it's a smaller region where the message board won't move so quickly, use the Getting Help page.

So then..

Two questions......if reporting an inapropriate nation name....it DOES belong here as it would be a forum issue?

and....its been a day since the nation "JudenRaus"...( which means Jews Out!" is going to be allowed?

As Enodia said."the imperative implies Jews...get the HELL out!"

surely this is not appropriate.

Maybe he didnt notice the word was actually a name of a nation.....?

Inappropriate nation names and all other customisable field violations should be reported through the Getting Help page. It is not a Forum issue.

Well thank you Grace for not locking this ..yet. May I just add that the person in question is, of course, entitled to his views but he finds any and every way he can to insult and abuse Jews. I've been told that linking directly to political parties is acceptable, fine but please can somebody ask this person to make his points without the abuse he is constantly throwing? I myself, got smacked in the chops and deleted once, and after stitching the wounds and having some traction, I returned all squeaky clean and scrumptious. I never insulted a 'race' or abused a whole swathe of fellow posters. If he doesn't like Jews and can find stuff that shows them in a bad light, then let him do it and others will make their repostes but he is deeply insulting a lot of Jews who presumably also use this site.
............Well, you've gotta try.

Hmm. Juden Raus means Jews out. I don't think it's more offensive than "Palestinian Jihad".

Eh?

What are you talking about?
A Palestinian Jihad is an actual thing, how can you compare it to Juden Raus?

Squatches, I noticed it was a nation name. I'm just taking a break from using my mod powers for a while, due to the fact that I was afraid of becoming a power-mad maniac.
Further, I endorse Jet Li's comments. Particularly in light of current real-world events, a "Palestinian Jihad" is a very real thing.

Seductive, ain't it? I've tried staying away from my forums, but I never last.

I can't speak for everyone else, but *I* trust ya. :wink:

This one (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=Johnspenis) just showed up in the South Pacific, until he departed to create his own, equally inappropriate Region name.

Heads up.

As far as I know Enodia, youve never gone power crazy.
If you felt you had to cool down..thats very big of you.

It was the whole JARROS thing (plus some unrelated RL businesses) that gave me cause for the stepping-down. It dawned on me that if I actually wanted to belt this bloke one - and I did - then perhaps I wasn't as unbiased as I should be.
Still, as soon as I'm certain in my own mind that things are back to where they should be (e.g. back to having daily arguments with the campus fascists :wink: ), then it's back to work here.
