Well then sure. But then you would have to remove all the crosses in all the levels on graal. I know classic has quite a few. You would have to take out all reference to god. Also not to mention the Jesus Freak guild house. I'm pretty sure there are a few other ones. Personally I dont think we should have RL religion in a game either. If anything like I said just a made up religion with made up gods.

Crosses were stolen from pagen origins , the Egyptians , and it was a fertility sign , if you do your research , Chirst was hung on a "pole " not a cross like christianity would like you to believe.If you really did your research on the origins of many such things in Chirstianity you would find almost all of it came from pagan origins.I could sit here and point out many of them and where they really came from but I am not about to start that here...

Exactly who makes up this "majority" that will be offended, from what I've seen the only ones offended are you and MG. Just because you say they will be offended doesn't mean they will be, as far as I am concerned the majority doesn't give a **** and won't be offended. This thread will have to be closed for me to "drop it". That is bullshit, the only ones offended are you and MG, no one else cares, so why can't the guild have tags?

Angels offend me because i dont believe in them.
Evil Angels as well.
Frost offends me because my Uncle died in frost
GaNgStAs offends me because it blatently stereotypes black

Lets get real, every guild will offend someone, so stop whining.

Yes, all because Mg couldn't give a guild tags because it may be "offensive". As I said in the first post I put on this thread "if anyone is offended they can take a long walk off a short peir w/ weights on their backs.".

Not allowing someone to have those names is discrimintation against religion. Don't want that to interfere, or you've got quite a bit of gamers no longer playing. I don't see what's so wrong about having God or Devil in the name anywho. Jeeze. Stupid Soccer Mom's trying to take over the world :mad:

Yup. At this rate in 20 years we will be back in the 1930s, when everything was bland and unoffensive.

Political Correctness is helpful TO A POINT. You can't stop everything just because it MIGHT offend someone oh no!
AGAIN, I emphasize this quote!
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

and he was right in doing so as SS and SD have no business in graal at all, no matter what the hell they stand for.

Satanism is a valid religion, they do NOT worship the devil as some of you more ignorant people may think.
They dont believe in God, or the Devil, they believe in total freedom(anarchy).
Anyone who says they do needs to be smashed in the face with an ironing board.
If you wont let someone use that name, or something close to it, then, im offended by guilds having the word Holy, and Heaven, and anything related to them in their name.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is an extremist group and not 'socially accepted "And as the Graal Rules states, the rules are for the majority and will not please everyone , and they will not try to as we won't.Graal is not a place for "political statements" as a guild of that name would be, so it is your right of course to have that view , it just will not be allowed on the Game, for this game is not a political arena for soapbox opinions , if that is what you wish , then I suggest you take it elsewhere, this Game is not a democracy but a game run by Graal and its rules , you follow them or you don't play; its that simple...

Satanic means you support Satan or you live for him like the term Slaytanic :).
Being Free has nothing to do with Anarchy.
Whoever Posted that MG knows nothing

edit: Satanism is a Valid Religion yes but see the part:
SATAN

The Guy who posted that is probably someone who thinks if Marilyn Manson says Satan Rules he must do.

Maybe because someone new has something to add to it and since it is not a closed thread and a reopened thread nothing is against the rules on it and if you don't wish to post or read it then don't..... but don't deny others the right to do so, they have every much right to post on this as you do ....

Old threads that are revived usually get closed as soon as a new post is added to them. If this thread were posted in the main forum it would have been closed seconds after it was revived.
