Okay, first of all, the swastika DOES stand for a religion, but I'm not going to get into an arguement about this. It's stupid and rediculous, this is just a freaking RPG, and Viva, you are missing mine and Meg's point. SHE DID NOT COME IN HERE WISHING TO HURT YOU OR INSULT YOU. If she did, she could do it a hell of a lot worse - and so could I. She explained it, and you just skimmed through it without reading it, or so it seemed like - she said that the last phrase had nothing to do with a Holocaust link, it was more satanic in a sense. And you know what - if anyone has a freaking problem with that, they need to grow up - because this game is the most UNRELIGIOUS freaking thing I have ever taken part in.

And as for her being a newbie - you all treated her like SHIT. Even I, playing as Cobra, have never attacked or treated a new player in the game like that. So Meg, she is wrong, we DO NOT treat all new players to the game like that, she just won't admit that yes, she overreacted BEFORE she heard your explanation and perhaps, YES, she was wrong in jumping to conclusions and jumping all over your back. Dani admitted it - she's a great person, and so is Cheyenne (sorry if I got your name wrong, it's been a long night). As Dani and Cheyenna did, I want to apologize for the way they 'welcomed' you into the game.

Viva, I think you need to realize that you are not always right. The swastika stands for much, MUCH more than you think, you have just been seeing what the television tells you, what the books tell you, and what your teachers tell you. Did you know that the Swastika also is a symbol of good luck? Hmmm...bet you didn't know that one. The world is a very politically correct place, and that needs to be known - some things are hidden and kept away from the public's eye because it will make governments or figureheads look bad.

Meg - I don't care whether you change your name or not, after all, Viva has said, this is an RPG. Let's see, her exact words:

>>That's just how this rpg works.<<

So therefore, I think that since you are not coming in here, screaming "Hail Hitler" and all that crap, you should be allowed to keep the name. But I quit playing in this game, because of all this 'people not thinking before they post' crap - perhaps you will too. It's not the game it used to be...and you would have been immediately accepted in the old one, like the first or second TD. But now that its on it's seventh run (I believe it's the 7th run) we have accumulated a great number of players that have turned it, well, childish. Dani, you know I don't mean you, girl...you are one of the best, in my own opinion, and you know this.

Anyway, I'm done for now. This whole thing is giving me a damn headache.
