Jihadswarm is vastly entertaining and bringing much to both the forums and the game. Now, I have no way of knowing if the Goons kill mails are real or not, but if they are killing just a few Chinese ISK farmers, then it was a success. Can't we all be happy with that ?

If Allah is the one true God and all non-believers are infidels destine for damnation, then I don't think Islam really has much to worry about from the rantings of Goons.

'Suicide' ganking has been ingame for a while and as a 'feature' of the game mechanics, I suppose that's fine.
A problem arises when players attach radical religious overtones to this feature, name themselves after quasi religious stereotypes and use ingame links to websites that project radical religious songs/terminology etc.
I'm not sure how CCP feels about these events, but I'm pretty sure it's only a matter of time before more vocal and less sympathetic elements of society (not connected to the mmorpg scene) become aware of whats happening and begin to voice their own opinions.
If I was CCP, I'd be very, very, pro-active at removing any radical religious references from the game - even if they are intended as harmless parody. It's not smart, clever or funny and it's certainly not enriching the game or projecting a positive image.
I don't really think CCP has much to fear economically from losing it's consumer base in Iran.

For anyone claiming the OP needs to leave RL out of the game, may I suggest that jihadswarm borught RL into the game, and the OP's intent is rather to remove it.
Do I think the swarm's actions are in bad taste? Yes. Is it bannable? Probably not.
If you want to claim the defense that they are roleplaying terrorists, I say great, let CCP facilitate their roleplaying. Let's make all self-proclaimed members of terrorist organizations shoot on sight for Concord.
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighters. You insult all Islam by suggesting that Goons are roleplaying terrorists simply because they use "Jihad" in their definition. You sir are a bigot for thinking that any use of the term equates to terrorism.

Noting myself as an aethist beforehand, I do like Islam more than Christianity simply because it teaches better morals.

Setting aside the fact that the Quran does not command this, there are equally violent commandments in the Bible. Stoning disobedient children for example.
Good stone the Goons and disobedient children then, I don't care as long as the rivers flow with the blood of the non-believers and infidels !!!

You sir, are an idiot. Suggesting they are playing terrorists has nothing to do with the name of the group, the players themselves have made the claim that they are roleplaying terrorists and suicide bombers. In what twisted bastardization of logic does my repeating their own self-characterization make me a bigot? Get a clue or go away.
I speak not with Infidels, may the rivers flow with the blood of the non-believers !!!

Why is it that religious people get so offended on behalf of their deity? Don't you trust your god to sort it out after the offenders die? But it's not really about that, is it? It's all about you wanting revenge, because someone ridiculed your fairytale.
I want not revenge you Infidel, but I do want the rivers to flow with the blood of the non-believers !

Get your facts straight. Until before the current war in Iraq, the suicide bombing league was completly dominated by the Tamil Tigers, which is a secular, communist, organization made up mostly by hindus.
Stone the Hindus !!!
