Next thing we know E X O D U S will be forbidden cause it's "named after an expansion of a certain MMOG" (although we were first to make the corp).

And I'm sure I've seen corps like Microsoft Corporation, Xanadu, The Sovjet Union, etc... around to. All forbidden now?

Ridiculous. (Think I've said it before in another thread...)

@Drilla:

Actually, I think the swastika is perfectly fine to wear or display - if people are ignorant of its meaning then tough.

2 things to say on this subject:

1 - I agree with Deathwing, CCP - this is a bridge too far, your GM team needs some serious re-education, they are failing in some pretty BIG ways which is undoing alot of the very good, effective and efficient work they do.

2 - Offence can never be given, it can only be taken. The people that play this game, more than any other I have experienced, have minds of their own. If something offends them, then that's their problem - not yours and it sure as hell isn't ours.

Oh, without doubt, and in others women are stoned for showing their face...

This action has effectively enraged the whole community (the one that uses the forums anyway) to concede ONE person's vendetta.

This person has exploited the petition system to gain cheap points. He should be banned.

Sigh, this is stupid and disrespectful.

GMs, Devs or anyone else should not act capriciously and treat their customers with no respect. If there are real reasons that names need to be changed than the people who run this game need to publically state them and give the community a chance to have input on them before they start altering people's corp names willy nilly.

(and yes, even if the rules have been there, for the case of S.A.S, not 4S, because they haven't been enforced in 2.5 years, the GMs cannot just act on them at random)

you know, I find this funny as hell, those GM's must be bored as hell to go and pull this on 4S and S.A.S, I mean, how long does a daniel jackson thread or <insert alt here> thread's get whacked with a *click* on the first page? This thread's gone on for 7 pages now, with not a peep from CCP/ISD.

So what gives? think CCP/GM's stepped on thier customers toes and are afraid to admit it?

[Selpy hand's the GM's a set of......]

Put the nerf bat down for 5 minutes and actually THINK about what your doing, your alienating your customer base, methink's that nerf bat is in violation of a toy company's (R)(TM), someone should take THAT away from the dev's :P

Senate and Supreme Court Corporations in the Gallente Federation, im sure we are all aware that many countries have in their governmental body a "Senate" and a "Supreme Court" so that to would also be emulating a real-world group

If CCP wants to play on semantics, i can spend more then 5 minutes scrolling thru CCP created NPC corp names and googling stuff and finding references to rl groups and organizations

in closing

give them their names back
sit down
and stfu
