Banning people for nothing
« on: 07-02-2015, 02:02:39 »
Hey folks.

I introduced FH2 to a colleague and he was banned because of his nickname (Joachim Peiper). I know that Peiper was a famous and popular figure of the Waffen SS but banning him seems to be radical.

FH2 is great but it needs more players so I don't understand why he was banned for this stupid reason.

Your problem has nothing to do with this forum, you probably should visit [762] forum and post there (I guess it was [762] server, right?), also why your colleague can't manage it himself but you have to do that? Anyway, I bet he was warned and asked to change the nick before he got banned, it's not difficult to do that and that nick is clearly against the server rules, which you should read before joining a game next time.

Jochen Peiper was a hero. He was a real soldier.

I'm admin on 762 (though not the one who banned you, I only play on weekends usually) and I know those rules are stupid. I hate having to kick someone for naming their squad SS-PZ.Div or whatever. But I think it may have something to do with German law (762 servers are in Germany) and any Nazi/SS promotion is illegal.

Europe is kind of ass backwards about that kind of stuff.

See you on the battlefield!

It might not, it has, Christie.

It is forbidden under German law to propagate National Socialism and fight the fdGO.
Our server is hosted in a German company, we are bound to German law.

@BlueBaron, JochenPeiper, whatever you want to call yourself.

--> Host a server in the USA or another country if you are bothered by that.
Then you will be free to run around with nicknames of war criminals, mass
murderers and spraypaint Swastikas all over the place while spamming the chat
with "Heil youknowwhat" 24/7. Freedom of speech, enjoy your fascist ideology,
knock yourself out.

Maybe we should join that server and name ourselves Mohammed Atta, Osama Bin Laden,
Saddam Hussein, Mohammad Al-Zarkawi,... I'm sure you would love that.

Not on [762]. (Btw you have not been banned, yet.
You were kicked and advised to change your nickname.)

He was not a hero, but a war criminal. BTW, enjoy your ban.

I'm sorry, but I had to smile while reading this and thinking about US gunlaws based on the situation in the 1700s.

Let's be honest, America's ever-relaxing gun laws are really based on the situation of the 1980s.

BTW, enjoy your ban.

While I've never understood people who wanted to play with names of mass-murderers etc, I thought that was a bit harsh. But honestly, I dont care enough to argue against it either.

He was only accused and his guilty has never been proven, so calling him war criminal would mean that every american bomber crewman who bombed Dresded is also war criminal...

I'm not surprised you're definding him as everybody knows that you fap to Peiper everyday. You even set his name as a password to the .rar file of your map IIRC.

That may be, but the difference is that reverence for American bomber crewmen is not associated with a dangerous right wing ideology which we don't want on this board.
