Re: 'Anus' Siggies

It has already been said that it is breaking the rules...just remove the sigs and everyone will be fine.

And in regards to some of the posts:

"Anus" may not be an offensive term in normal conversation, but if I was to reference your RL family as a bunch of asses, you would find that offensive?

The alliances involved in the Janus Pact believe that "Anus Pact" is offensive as it seems to refer or define the Janus Pact (and in effect, TLE and TAF) as asses.

As pointed out by Severian, it has broken some rules (and the many attempts to counter these "breaches" seem weak imo), therefore the sigs should be removed.

And two other things:

1) Trying to counter the breach by saying "nose" or "foot" can be offensive?


NOTE: The text below is not a quote, it is just an example

Code: Select all

"I think your whole family are a bunch of noses"

"I think your whole family are a bunch of asses"


You see the major difference there?

2) It doesnt help when both sides of this argument breach rules while trying to attack/counter the opposition.

Just my two cents here...

Oh?

Well...


btw, this should be interesting for sva:


In Old Norse, the Æsir (singular Ás, feminine Ásynja, feminine plural Ásynjur, Anglo-Saxon Ós, from Proto-Germanic *Ansuz) are the principal gods of the pantheon of Norse mythology. They include many of the major figures, such as Odin, Frigg, Thor, Baldr and Tyr. ...

That's the thing, you are NOT a random person. You're supposed to represent a part of the community.

I personally don't give a damn what you call yourself. I'm just pointing out the fact that if you can't handle the maturity it takes to be a leader, then maybe you should take a step back.

Re: 'Anus' Siggies

jack takes his job seriously, but is a light hearted mood kind of person.

he's a blast to talk to and extremely nice, however when there is an issue that needs someone to be serious he's the right person for it.

Re: 'Anus' Siggies

I believe you Mystake, but sometimes it takes a little more than "taking your job seriously". He needs to realize that kids look up to him as a leader of the community.

Someone's parent isn't going to know that he's a light hearted guy. They would see Sex, and automatically assume he was a typical immature child on a forum.

By the way, good to see you changed it back Jack.

Re: 'Anus' Siggies

SGW was never a game made for little kids in the end. Matter of fact its a game that takes to war... is that really a kids thing?

either let them keep the sigies if they feel so, and i ll update a few of mine once they are done :)

or remove them and thats it.

no need to make a whole debate about it
word anus is not bad, nor "banable".
But what the sig does, is ofend a certain groop of ppl, If thats a coincidence or intent on JMXs part only he knows for sure.
The question is do we want the poke contest to continue, or take a chill pill...

posibillities are endless. lets just get an authoritative decision by forum admin/god and lets get cracking in the paintshop! It`ll be fun to see some tunes change when the boot is on the other foot heh :P

Actually thoese rules where accepted by Jason as well.

And tbh they are rules on this forum and as you should know games today is of war. Small kids run on the street playing cowboys and Indians killing each other with toy guns, from not that big, age so a game like this that aren't bloody but pure fun well beside from the stupid people who dont know how to write and behave and talk to others.

Thats my 2cents.

I hate to break it to you. A LOT of kids play this game.

You call attacking someone with 15 ATs "War"? There isn't a whole lot of blood and violence the last time I checked.
