Okay this guy borders on spamming and inapporiate material. He's blatent spamming the WA proposal page. I am not sure if anyone has reported it but just letting the mod gods know about it.

Then take a look at his nation page http://www.nationstates.net/69577/nation=leek_spin I don't know about everyone but I find a Nazi flag and refrences to Jews in his motto very offensive.

The Nazi flag should warrant an automatic deletion, for that is explicitly stated in the rules.

The proposal primarily fails because it deals with a RL issue, and will be taken down simply for that if I remember the WA proposal rules correctly as for the rest it is irrelevant.

The nation will be deleted as it is against the rules to have the Hindu symbol of 1000 on your flag because of the offence it may cause to some people.

Correct, but I dealt with it anyway.

Both his proposals involved real-world references and were therefore illegal. They've been removed.

I don't know about everyone but I find a Nazi flag and refrences to Jews in his motto very offensive.
The swastika is illegal as a flag and has been removed. We don't automatically cleanse slogans that we don't agree with or that a player may find offensive.

The Nazi flag should warrant an automatic deletion, for that is explicitly stated in the rules.

Really? Where is that? (Remember that I'm the author of the One Stop Rules Shop, and I'm moderately familiar with it from enforcing it daily.)

Well, not automatic as in game engine per se, but should have been deleted anyway. You didn't write this post (or at least I don't think you did...), but it's this one:

Explicit enough for me, anyway.

[violet] doesn't mention anything about deletion or punishment, she simply lists what is and isn't acceptable. Like Fris said, it doesn't warrant automatic deletion but it does warrant some good talking to, maybe a stern paddling, or some soap in the mouth.

Reading through some of the ex-nations on nswiki, it's pretty amusing to see what actually is DOS... like creating a nation called the "The Moist Glorious Hack." Or a name that references the size of your jib and it's particular cut. Y'know, funny things.

Tut tut. Why, pray tell, are our moderators so unfunny? :D

I applogize for it not being in the right spot. But fairly new to NS and forums and most everything. :$

I suppose I wanted a quick fix and didn't think too brightly where I was suppose to do it. But now I know.

He can't. It's not there to quote.

The nation doesn't get deleted automatically unless it crosses multiple lines of rulebreaking (i.e. "The Hitler's Best Friend of JewKillers", motto "Exterminate the sub-human races").

The flag can be deleted by mods and replaced with the NS default flag quite easily, and that's all we generally do in such cases.

Fris, not to be a bother but it appears he still has his swastika flag. Not sure if you'd gotten 'round to changing it or not.

Reposting the swastika after being warned and linked to the rules crosses that line I mentioned before. He should'a listened.

It seems quite obvious that the person was a troll.

Additional assessments after the ruling has already been given probably aren't needed, unless it adds new value to the situation at hand. I'm going to close this thread.

Reading through some of the ex-nations on nswiki, it's pretty amusing to see what actually is DOS... like creating a nation called the "The Moist Glorious Hack."For what it's worth, that nation wasn't DoS'd just because of that name. He had been dinged for quite a few other infractions. No, I don't remember them any more.
