There's even an N word based questgiver.

something else I'm going to add if you don't like something destroy it this is a Sandbox game where you could destroy other people's things if you don't like something destroy it then you can look at it as cleaning up the environment if I found something like that in the game I would get rid of it too if I was able to without starting a conflict because I personally don't care even if it is something indecent I just ignore it and move on with my life I leave toilet humor jokes all over the game on runestones and I'm sure quite a few people destroyed them I'm sure they cringed or laughed at my crappy jokes because they're so craptastic also I'm quite punny ¦]

Hate speech isn't allowed on the forum, and that symbol is an internationally recognized hate speech symbol.


you mean recognized by ADL

let me guess... you also:

1. think that jews cannot be ever mentioned in any discussion under any circumstances
2. claim abortion is not wrong, but calling it murder is
3. say all lives matter is racist standpoint
4. claim science cannot be wrong, especially when "(((experts))) say"
5. preach mainstream media is always right and proposing/proving/discussing otherwise is considered major blasphemy


Jesus christ man just say you're a nazi and be done with it.

Don't like what you see, go and change it. Everyone can. stomp it to durt and pave something else over it. Like why are you even bothering writing this?

and any game where people have the freedom to make anything there's going to be inappropriate things made the devs have the best quote for it poop in the sandbox

I just recommend ignoring it I consider it harmless bantering things only bother you if you let them

I've had a lot of racist remarks aimed at me for having autism do I care no cuz I learned not to care it's better than putting somebody in the hospital or going to prison

I don't receive any more further mental damage from words anymore cuz of my mindset

and I'm bipolar I can snap on a dime ironically my anger management in bullshit tolerance is greater than the average League of Legends player



Shitler actually flipped it, the buddhism symbal is similar but mirrored, I'd know, I had to look it up to make sure I was paving the right one on the ground in that photo <3
Balls Bay KOed me and tried to extort me for protection against themselves, camped an alt at my place, what the image doesn't show is what the runestones say :)

To be fair, where do we draw the line?

Jorb has, in the past, forcibly changed village / kingdom names (I recall one such as "White Power" or something like that).

I would go so far as to say the symbol is likely more offensive to a larger audience than prior village/kingdom names. If the larger of the offenders is being policed in game, should not the greater of the offenders be punished as well?

Both can be removed in game through player actions, so doesn't make much sense to police any to me, personally, but we can't be picking and choosing.

The fact some villages / users of this forum pave what I would consider porn of underage/minors (even if it's fictitious) onto minimap grids which, to my knowledge, has not been forcibly changed or nuked, is the most egregious 'offensive' thing out there in game.

And this is why game is 18+ and mature content in steam, there is no way to prevent offensive signs in such a sandbox game.
