    Evony Forum Rules > Prohibited Topics > Religion

    I can share my view on this, though this might not be completely accurate, and it might be more of a inderect reason to why your signature picture had to change.

    On this forum you can find threads where the members discuss different signatures. Any signature can therefore be seen as a topic, which limits what you are allowed to put in your signature picture, because they might become a topic for a prohibited discussion.

    There's an old saying
    "You shouldn't talk about religion or politics"

    Why? Because both will cause heated debate and/or conflict.

    Fact is, you don't have to talk about it for others to start such debate/conflict. You just have to state that you have a belief..... sometimes, you just have to open your front door on a Sunday (yeesh!)

    Personally, I've seen many people comment on someone's sig. Having a sig that states a religious belief creates a potential for entirely off-topic conflict which can be sparked purely by someone commenting or drawing attention to it. This would be against forum rules. They're not trying to infringe on your rights to have a religious belief, or even to want to tell the world.... just not the Evony Forum world.

    Although, for the same reason, I do believe those having sig's like "you're all going to hell" should similarly be removed.

    i only posted the thread cause my sig was removed and all it said was while on the cross he thought of you have a blessed week what harm can that sig bring its a not a religous thread its a thread about them saying i couldnt have a religious sig but the rules as huntahh pointed out said threads not sigs ive seen worse so has others and they have not been removed i feel mine was cause i keep calling out evony on there lies and this is a what the mods are using to get back at me. cause they didnt just removed my sig they put green writing no religious items on forum instead of writing me pretty much using me as a example cause every post i had made then changed to that wich is the wrong way of handling it i feel.

    so.... you're saying that they're personally hunting for your comments and finding whatever fault they can?

    Can anyone say paranoid?

    Oh c'mon, next you're gonna ask them to make sure no-one quotes StarWars, since "Jedi Knight" is an ordained clergy position.

    For every logic rule, there must be a limitation of acceptability. "Religion" in the forum rules obviously (at least to me) encompasses traditional meaning. Frankly, I don't think any of us want to see various religion followers on this forum debating whether or not their deity is better than any other, cause we all know....

    You aren't the first who has had their avatar/sig deleted and I very much doubt you'll be the last.

    There has been more than one thread on people complaining about having their sig's removed or complaining about someone else's. The most memorable was over acer having latin text in his. The reason sighted? The forum should be in English only. Good grief.

    On another point religion and politics are considered taboo subjects because of the strength of feeling they tend to produce, your're a perfect example yourself since your're clearly upset at having yours removed to such a degree you've created a thread on it.

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!
