Offensive nickname

Actually, if we are speaking of this game/forum, it IS not "our" problem. We don't feel offended, we just see people breaking the rule. And I am glad I have other people in the team too that share my opinion of moral not even letting this bullshit hostile speech in it. I ofcourse don't get "offended" when someone is using Al Quaida shit, as I am no member of it nor do I have something to do with it. Also am I no "nigger", that doesnt stops me from finding it just bad. Activating common sense seems to be hard for some people in here. (we even had the n word discussion ago, there was no racism from human to human in the fallout world... ::) ).
Otherwise, good post, even if I don't agree with all your points.

Pretty much he(Nice_Boat) summed up almost everything what I've said earlier, with minor differences on IRC. It's totally normal for people to behave differently in-game and in real life.

I agree, I don´t think it is about being offended by a nickname, but that immature people break the rules without consideration.

Well said, most people feel safe behind their monitor. Actually not many of them realise the fact that there is another person in front of other monitor. Even if it's far away from his home. Though, it's i-net, "the place where men are women, women are women and children are cops". I don't support any kind of racism, non tolerantive behaviour or insulting myself. But honestly, nicknames in game are the thing that should become lowest priority to care about for most people. But there's always kind of "problem"...

Because "it's only a game" ? Sorry, your argument is invalid. People are working everyday on this game, and racism is not tolerated here, nor in real life.

They're not high priority, actually we only do something when we cross them. The "problem" here comes from people that make offending nicknames, get banned and whine here.

Well frankly I think people should be allowed to choose their own name which was the original topic not joking about rapists and suicide bombers, and if you don't like the guys nick name, PK him enough times so that he changes it. Welcome to the wonderful world of Fallout where you can kill anyone for any reason including that his big toe is bigger than your dick :p
