How are they anti-religious, again? Seems like free advertisement for your faith.
Or do you have a reason to hide in the shadows...?

Not exactly a positive advertisement though, is it?
*shrug* I guess that depends on how much real-life stock you put in the actions of people in a game.

Originally by: Malar Some things just have no place in an international game, and religious / racist / oppressive ideologies or the mentioning / advertising of said ideologies is just a prime example of the bigger DON'Ts of an MMO game.
I understand all your points, and I can see where you're coming. But with regards to the above quote, you're actually doing that which you're speaking out against with this thread. Not trying to be a *****, just thought that was worth pointing out.
CCP isn't blind and deaf to these types of issues, and I'm sure you're not the first Muslim to raise it to them as a point of contention. The fact that nothing has been done has to say something about the validity of arguments against their behavior.

Originally by: Avon Actually, the rules do. They state that Roleplay can not be used as justification for griefing.
Just sayin'.
How are they griefing?

Originally by: Omarvelous I doubt a Christian would be offended by someone claiming a holy trinity of Father, son and the holy rabbit.
Blessed be the Holy Rabbit, for its tasty stew will nourish our souls

Originally by: Avon It used to be that suicide ganking was allowed if it was done for profit, rather than just epic lulz. No idea if that has changed.
It wasn't really my point though, I was more trying to point out that roleplay excuses are not allowed (which is kinda dumb in lots of situations).
Indeed.
The reason I raise the question is that they're not targeting a specific corporation, alliance, or individual. They're chasing down Hulk pilots. If that falls into the classic definition of griefing then everyone with an Interdictors Only overview setting is screwed. :)

Originally by: Zarin Like christianity is the one that kills people and every other religion pretty much on the face of the planet has had terrible atrocities commited in its name. Of course if the religion itself was actually responsible and not just some idiots interpretation of it then good sensible people might actually object to it, instead of just the extremists on the 'other side' with their own quack religion.
Every major religion has a history of atrocities. The fact that one can even think of claiming that theirs is one of peace is just a joke in and of itself.
And before someone even thinks of pitching Scientology as one that hasn't had a negative influence on the world, I give you this man.
(and a lol version for detox afterwards)

Originally by: Zarin It's just as much of a joke as someone that claims the religion is one of violence and hatred. Relgions are not those things, people are.
I agree. I also note that I did neither.
