Would it be possible not to include inflammatory comments in the signature line of players comments?
While I am for freedom of speech I don't appreciate to be made to feel as if my fellow players would like to see my country's death....ie my death on a game server.
If the DM's need specifics please pm me.

The "I hate Banites" in the signature which somebody has?
If you're referring to something similar, Or Just that specific thing, Im all with you.
That was me, and I've long since changed my sig. I thought that wording it as a Dr Seuss reference might have made it clear that I meant it to be taken a bit tongue-in-cheek, but apparently I got a bit more under people's skin than I'd intended to.
Having said that, I suppose I could see Colapops thinking that putting that Death to America tag on a cartoon fish, or whatever it is, might soften its impact a bit?

I feel this could have been addressed better in a direct PM to the offending poster or to a board admin instead of opening up the floor for comments like some of the ones included in this thread and citing specific examples.
I have to agree with Fierene Havenstar, while I dont want to start a political or religious debate, its offensive and I would like people to not use Amia as a means to degrade any country, religion or otherwise... if you want free speech, make a blog.
I'm noticing a lot of butthurt americans in this thread...
Which Americans... North Americans? South Americans? Mesoamericans? Last time I checked America consisted of two continents and 22 separate countries and quite a few protectorates.

But seriously, I can't believe this thread was made. I'm American and even though I never saw the 'Death to America' banner until tonight, I shrugged it off.
Butt=hurts much?

The Yanomamo people of Brazil, to be precise. Cola really hates them.
