Somewhere in your player database is a veteran character with this name…
Was not able to get his Steam ID from the social tab.
EDIT: Please extend FAQ with information where & how to potentially report players.
Thanks
EDIT 2: I am not advocating for player’s ban. Warning and forced rename is IMO OK.
Average 40k fan naming their character after a far-right terrorist
this should be a permaban.
And everyone whos real name is Anders, Adolf or Osama should get banned from the world or what?
It´s just a name and poeple should finally start to stay above such stuff. The reasons why so many pointless discussions still exists and got more heat than needed are mostly just some pointless words. Maybe “Kilgalle” (Characters name. has been a slayer in Jerusalem before Christus arrived? Who knows… or what is with all the little kids in the USA shooting around in their school? Do we know the names?
Ethnically correct or not, it´s not funny… but things like that only work because people are so easily provoked.
Average 40k fan defending people’s ability to identify with fascism
Why people can’t identify themselves with anything they want? If they don’t do any violence towards people or if they don’t call to do some acts of violence. It is a good thing when people show their views, cause you can separate yourself from them and never be in same session, just add them to blacklist, imagine how many there people you are playing with everyday and don’t know they are killing kitties every night. You also always can vote to kick, leave session, or just ignore.
Signaling and sharing hateful beliefs is not okay and should not be respected.
And everyone whos real name is Anders, Adolf or Osama should get banned from the world or what?
No. Specific name combinations should be checked for.
Maybe “Kilgalle” (Characters name. has been a slayer in Jerusalem before Christus arrived?
A bit of strawman argument. 1, name “Kilgalle” is from Warhammer 40K name generator. 2, There is quite a difference between pre-christ and 2011; about 2000 years.
things like that only work because people are so easily provoked
It should not be a ban, but warning and forced rename to one of the default vet names.
Provoked or not, lets have a bit of a respect for the victims. Their relatives and/or their kids can be playing games too.
Eh, i mean just names of some actors don’t necessary mean beliefs, maybe it’s just a trolling nickname from some edgelord. The different thing if nickname would be like “kill all ‘x’ group of people!”, in that case it’s a bruh moment indeed.
should not be respected
And you don’t need to. Plenty of options to avoid such people. Including trolling them in return.
Hundreds of people are named Anders Breivik in Norway afaik, you wanna ban them all for using their given name because of one psycho asshat?
Why people can’t identify themselves with anything they want?
…
You also always can vote to kick, leave session, or just ignore.
Well, for one, because its illegal by law in Europe to publicly identify yourself with or propagate nacism. One of the few things, said person have done.
Noone said ban.
And if you are named after someone who murdered 77 people, you might understand why you cannot or should not use that name in a game.
Same way as “co*k” is perfectly valid animal name or surname, people still get banned for using it as IGN.
Hmm, but how this law regulate such things like character name in vidya? Does dude behind it rly identify himself with something? I mean can you sue him? lol. Like for example in US you can identify yourself with any freak stuff you want, as far as i know
That’s bullcrap.
Which is dumb, it’s an important part of the body for 50% of the population.
We’re not in US. Fatshark is Swedish company.
Hmm, but how this law regulate such things like character name in vidya?
Law regulates the provider. It is usually part of Code of Conduct or EULA customer is accepting.
Me either, it was just an example. But naming character in video game is equal to identifying yourself with something by that law? It’s not a statement or manifesto
It’s as well vulgarity, which is same as “offensive” names.
I can’t believe I am having this conversation with you. You may want to read the EULA you accepted, which given character is in breach. I recommend part named " Player Conduct"
It’s still dumb. Duck being vulgar is a religious idea, Sweden is the most atheist country in the world.
“people are so easily provoked”
Yes, this is why you just ban them without making a fuss.
You sound like a power hungry person. Just separate yourself from people you don’t like, and place yourself among people you do like, no need to be a policeman - block, ignore, move on.
