All sorts of prejudices run rampant on the internet because people are anonymous. It'd be fantastic if people would just stomp it out like you suggest, but at the rate people call things "gay" as an insult, you'd never be able to stop typing if you tried.
If somebody says something especially ignorant or hateful, I'll just block them. That's what the feature is there for. |

This IS NOT A PROBLEM SPECIFIC TO EVE. Its a problem with the internet in general, as well as the rampant homophobia. Ever play xbox for 10 minutes? You'd think EVE-O players would be more mature, but lol. You gotta remember that some of EVE-O's largest communities are from outside the game, and are generally comprised of 18-30 yr old white male basement dwelling neckbeards, where racism and homophobia are allowed, and probably encouraged. |

Depends.
When referrring to a person's religion or ethnic background, its probably ok. When using the word to infer some shady, nefarious all controlling conspiracy type (see Jewbal, portmanteau of jew and cabal), kinda not ok. |

But if you're genuinely offended or concerned that the jokes/humor have wandered into the realm of exceedingly poor taste or straight up hate speech, then petition it.
I would like to think that most Eve players understand the difference between general asshattery and evil. Meaning, I would like to think that folks are on the "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" side of the line instead of the "Achtung Juden!" side.

There 12 tribes in Eve (three bloodlines for each race). That is not coincidental: We are Space Jews.
As we are all Space Jews, hence its all self-deprecating. You know, Jewish humor. A few anti-semite goyim might join in the fun, but sometimes you can't be kosher no matter how one tries.
That said, Jewbal is actually an ironic play on the blood libels people spread, both making fun of its idiocy and shocking and offending (as goons must).

I see players with 'Jesus' as their first name. This does not offend me at all.
It is a very common name in use for males in Portugal.
I see players with 'Koran' and 'Mohammed' in their names. Why should this offend anyone ?
I see the word 'Jew' used as a noun, adjective, invective verb and other flavours in the English language. If you take umbridge or feel insulted about this, then I urge you to reconsider what you are actually upset about. It's a word - you as an individual put whatever meaning you wish behind it. If it offends you, you have lost at the game of life, nevermind Eve.
It is no wonder that intelligent Aliens from other worlds (not bent on destroying us), give this planet a wide berth in their travels.
We have not matured as human beings. Hatred, religion, superstitions, wars, greed. The list goes on.
Eve is a mirror, how can anyone realistically expect it to be anything else ?
Political correctness is the bane of humanity. Get over word-use, get over being so sensitive. Grow.
I call a spade a spade and a Jew is a Jew, nothing more and nothing less. My Rabbi friend would be insulted if I did not tell him daily that he was a Jew. Be proud of being a jew and when you see the word being thrown about so freely and carelessly, laugh, because you know from whence you came.
That, or don't post in GD expecting mercy.

As an ashkenazi jew myself, I am deeply offended that some people like OP consider "jew" as an insult. He is probably antisemitic himself, and I really dont see why I cant enjoy the game without having to deal with the plague of our history.
I will not stand to see my heritage spat upon by some petty forum-neonazis. Antisemitism is a crime in many country, and for good reasons. If the moderation was really doing their job, this "pantson head" and all his alts would have been banned long ago for spreading such hate speech. |

This thread hasn't died yet? Then allow me to explain why the Goons' use of 'Jew' is so offensive:
See, Jews are famously bad at making money. It's like, if you put all the Jews in the world on an island, you'd have another Haiti and all the world's NGOs couldn't squeeze any prosperity out of it. We sort of already have this with Israel: at night, satellite pictures show it as just a dark void, completely surrounded by the bright lights of its far richer neighbors. If you flew over it at night, you'd be surprised that anyone actually lives in the darkness below. Finally -- I really don't want to go on with this highly sensitive stuff -- Jewish-Americans are famously settled on the bottom rungs of achievement when compared against other ethnic groups, by any measure you want to use. It's one the small tragedies of the modern world, really. In America, in 2012, the average Jewish family only has a few thousand dollars in savings, and they are grossly underrepresented in secondary student populations and high-paying jobs.
I'm not saying this to hurt anyone's feelings or to say anything bad about Jewish people. It's just how things are right now, and IMHO the best way to correct things you don't like is to understand exactly how they are right now, so that you know where to focus efforts.
So, back to 'jewbal' and 'jewing': the Goons are mocking Jewish underachievement, making light of it, just like The Mittani made light of that poor guy's problems. They must be stopped! It's an extremely hurtful thing, to highlight what a people are bad at. Next thing you know they'll be calling people 'Kenyans' because they're so good at running away, in mockery of world efforts to get the morbidly obese of that country (no offense) to get some exercise in.
I know I touched on some sensitive topics here, but I hope I contributed to the thread, and did something to support the OP's complaint. |

By the looks of this thread, non-Jewish people are more offended than the actual Jewish people. 
There are lots of jokes and sayings about different nationalities, religions and ethnic groups. Americans, Russians, Germans, French, Aussies, Irish... Muslims, Christians... etc, etc. They are jokes, and not meant to offend anyone, you don't really take them literally or seriously. |

Well, the same way someone can associate whatever ethnic to some other stereotype and think the same way but the problem comes when it's yours that is mocked and the only ones thinking it's funy are the dumb ones.
You know like GI Joes associated with civil bombing or English one associated with Irish civils assassinations etc, it's really not funny at all but for the dumb running their mouth. It's probably the easiest bullying behaviour and needs to get stop
