    Default Racism

    I would very much like to know the official Evony position on this, and how we should report, and what action may be taken. Approx 12 months ago there was a spate of 3 lettered alliances on several servers, it seems to have raised its ugly head again in various forms. I have PM'd Than, as this is such an offensive issue is it poss to have a quick response and/or action?

    funny thing is I cant find anything about racism for in-game, only for the forums, but Im thinking it is not tolerated....but when I tried reporting someone for a offensive name, nothing happen. Maybe using the new helpspot will get you some results.

    I guess suspending me for a day changed me...NOT

    Ardee, you will be missed.

    I remember a while ago Spawn was crying about some nazi alliance blocking a 16 or something.
    I'm guessing OP is whining about an alliance called KKK or something. Just let them have their alliance name. People are allowed to be racist.

    Racist account or alliance name is public racism as anyone can see these. If people want to be racists, thats perfectly fine so long as they limit it to spewing that vile stuff at home or with their friends and keeping it private.

    Our alliance do not discriminate! We kill everyone we can kill!!!

    I dont go about crying back to Mama. I deal with it myself! I make em quit!!!

    But then again, who's going to say racist words against a little young filipino fella like me?

    I just hope someone in my server does so that it will start burning my fire again!!!
    Absolutely agreed, I do not distinguish between black yellow purple or polka dots, male female or other persuasion. I DO however, object to people in WC calling for "N lovers to kill Jews" or "white * to submit n kill as asked" and "N loving white B*ches to do as told".

    The "N" word is very emotive and whilst it can be used as a recognition, it can equally be used very much more offensively. 2 issues here: whats offensive and what's not.

    While I recognise the word can be used in a non offensive way, equally it can be used in an extremely derogatory context and the meaning is clear. I have copy n pastes, and also screen shots showing that the latter is the case, particularly after I made it clear in WC it was not acceptable.

    I agree. Alliance names that are racist have all but been obliterated. Unfortunately these small minded "people" then find it funny to abuse on WC. This is what we need to eradicate.

    Offical response pls Evony.

    If folks read it makes sense......

    12 months ago those on many servers had to deal with a certain 3 lettered offensive term dec war on everyone....on multiple servers. It was clamped down on quickly, to evony's credit.

    "Approx 12 months ago there was a spate of 3 lettered alliances on several servers, it seems to have raised its ugly head again in various forms."


    My Q is how to report/what happens with racism atm as it doesnt actually seem to be specifically covered in Terms. Also what/how quickly it's dealt with bearing in mind it's illegal.

    I know new accounts can be made quickly, but such a sensitive issue really needs clarification and dealing with asap when reported.

    actually no, people are not allowed to be racist in the vast majority of the world, whether its enforced or not. And this an an Age 1 thread and you are talking about Age2 with 16's.

    Evony pls take note, ^^. After the ss60 debacle, restore my faith and ban blatent racists.

    Racism isn't a age1 or age2 things, its an every life thing. Evony can't do anything if som1 makes an account or alliance with a racist name. They can only do somthing if some goes out and starts saying racist things or starts going on about a specific group of ppl. Best thing to do is go to helpspot.
