So, once again a gentlegoon (well, testie) has been banned for mentioning the war in local. Apparently even a historical reference to the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, colloquially known as "****s", is no longer allowed in EVE Online, a bad spaceships game.

Leaked response from a GM that has also been reposted to twitter and ********** forums:

Personally, I am indignant and insulted at this lack of respect for history. This is yet another example of CCP denying the horrific events of the Second World War, and forbidding people from discussing it openly. Not only do they permanently ban users who dare to mention historical events, they ban those who mention the aggressors: as someone whose grandfather died in honourable combat for his country fighting the ****s, I am personally offended by this censorship and flagrant attack against history and freedom of expression.

I publicly call on CCP and your community managers to renounce their holocaust denial and pro-**** bias: bannning such users for this is an unacceptable assault on free speech, and will be met by nothing but derision from their 12000+ fee paying subscribers that the GM in question just insulted.

And, CCP Spitfire and your other friends in the moderation team, don't even bother locking this thread: my post has already been crossposted to Inappropriate URL removed. Zymurgist, evewire.com, failheapchallenge, pleaseignore.com and goonfleet.com before posting on COAD.

End your Holocaust denial. Your "Final solution to the TEST and Goons Problem" is unnaceptable, and will not stand. Free potf.


Fake edit: Oh look, you're back on the wikipedia article again, too: http://i.imgur.com/KyOvu.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocaust_denial#Notable_Holocaust_deniers




Real Edit: I like how you're censoring out **** and **********. Is this a spaceship game or North Korea? Seriously. Not only do you have a dev spawning BPOs but you censor out the whistleblower. CCP get more Orwellian every day.

Please do not evade the profanity filter. Zymurgist
