It's a quote from wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AntisemitismAnd yes I know wikipedia isn't always right. Please try to extend your English knowledge too (knowledge doesn't have a "knowledges" plural). More off-topic arguments that don't matter.

I'm not. Instead of arguing on the server, I made the effort to come here and debate it here. Being called a troll for continuing the debate is not really nice of you. You drag the conversation off-topic to make a point about the definition of racism. I'm sure if you ask if Hitler was a racist, you'd get the same answer pretty much all the time. I just wonder why that makes any difference in this discussion. This is about the rules and the opportunity to improve them.

If it makes you happy, I'll call it racial antisemitism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_antisemitism

Then take a look at your signature I never said anywhere that Judaism is a race. I refer to antisemitism, and as Jews are an ethnoreligious group, antisemitism is generally considered a form of racism. Not that that should make any difference. Cun.t should be in the filter. It is only used in a derogatory way. Vagina is currently in the filter. That normally isn't used in a derogatory way. This sounds like a legit reason. Yet I bet you won't make an effort to actually fix it. Instead, you'll give some other response (or none at all) explaining how a change in the filter implies changing it completely. That way no change will ever be done. And as far as spamming goes, one can spam with any word in the dictionary, no?

Well thanks for explaining guys. To reply to some of the comments (don't get me wrong, I appreciate that you guys are taking the time to debate): Using Hitler as a name to provoke people is fine, but saying f*** 3 times in a row gets you auto-kicked. Now how's that for policing the morale? Who am I offending when I'm saying "f*** me, that was a f***ing nice shot!"? You can't say f*** but when someone is pretending to be Hitler and provoking people, we should all just grow a skin. That's what I mean with double standards. f*** is also just a word, so why should we care then? This in my understanding is exactly what racism is. While there are so many different cases of admin intervention on FA servers, the fact that this kind of racially provocative slurs are getting a lenient treatment completely escapes me. But okay, if that's what you guys want them I can't change that. Sometimes it really feels like FA admins are always defensive when it comes down to their rules. You could also look at this as an opportunity to maybe tinker the rules a bit to make them better. I'm happy with the rules in general except some remarks, and surely my opinion may differ from the one that created the rules, but I'm sure no rulebook is ever perfect. Just like when I posted a year ago a topic about the wordfilter. Cun.t is allowed but vagina isn't (except on this forum, here it's the other way around). Instead of just taking it as a good headsup to alter the filter, everyone from FA got defensive when I was criticising the rules. Like I said I appreciate you guys taking the time to debate. Just sometimes it feels like there's no way of ever getting through that defensive shield.

Thanks for taking this seriously... not.

So using the name ISIS-lover is also fine and dandy? Saying "I hate Jews" is clearly not allowed, yet the name implies just that. Double standards... Sigh.

I get your point. But I think I can make my point of view more clear this way: An internet troll with the name Hitler has 1 purpose: to deliberatly provoke or upset people, using racism to achieve that purpose. How can that be allowed? (I think we don't have to act naive to say the player chose the name Hitler out of any other reason than provoking people)

The millions of Jews most probably don't agree with not being bothered with someone impersonating Hitler. As far as racism goes, I'm sure this qualifies.

Hi, Using the name Hitler is allowed. Saying the word Jew is not. Racism is not allowed. Having the name of person responsible for the genocide of at least 5.5 million Jews and millions of other victims whom he and his followers deemed racially inferior is allowed.

Bring back voting!

I'll start...

Beat this ronaldounit

Please stop running it after every other map. Super annoying and people who play for a longer time on the server get bored quickly.

Whoever or whatever generated the current map rotation is definitely up for a healthscan. One time xmas crash is cool, two times is fine, ten times is f***ing annoying. Especially if you put it after every other map. PLEASE CHANGE IT.
