I just received this e-mail from a good friend on server 25:
It makes me very sad to read this. At the risk of sounding like a bleeding heart, over sensitive fool I have to say I think it's wrong for us to treat others like this over a simple computer game. I believe very strongly in freedom of speech. As such, I believe this player had the right to say what they did and I don't necessarily think they should be censored for it...Dear Friend
[Player Name] from Alliance [Alliance Name] just sent a player who has a family member dying from cancer this mail.
‘’ i hope you can*cancer, and slow painful death.’’
I am asking you to send this message to [Player Name] on behalf of those who are suffering from
Cancer.
‘’Shame on you for all those suffering from cancer’’
Please don’t send hate mail but only that message.
The evony team knows about this offensive mail.
Thanks
-BUT-
Come on! To react so strongly over a game you feel the need to use such venomous words... It's just wrong.
I think the vast majority of us will agree in letting this player know that although they have a right to say these words- these words are not right to say!
*edit* I have since seen a screen shot of this so I can verify that this really happened.
