    I'm offended by the Black Ivory GM name. It's obviously some sick twist on a racial slur.

    Can it please be changed as well ?

    Lets just blow this out of proportion for the sake of it...

    Nordic mythology isn't a lived religion and I guess therefore ppl won't feel offended. I don't know one gaming company which allowes naming your character after a figure from any major religion. Guess why? To prevent mindless crap like this.

    Well at least you admit that community input doesn't matter in the end. Congratulations with your last word.

    did you just add that? ^^ I've read the RoC when the thread started and I could bet it wasn't there... Or I simply overlooked it.

    i don't understand how jesus is "anti-religious". it's EXACTLY the opposite. wtf do i not get here? i mean i do understand why these rules are there, but you gotta be seriously considering where you draw the line and start to piss off people for real.

    There shouldn't be a problem with the name Jesus; after all it's a popular first name in Spain & many Latin American countries..
    However if the character was called Jesus Christ, then that would be another matter, and relevant to the rules of conduct that you posted.

    Sorry, but it seems like a bit of an over-reaction to me.

    You seem to be the one struggling to understand. Perhaps you shouldn't condescend to other forums users so as to not look quite so foolish when it becomes readily apparent that you did not read the Rules of Conduct.

    The Rules of Conduct state 'anti-religious'. Jesus is not anti religious. Jesus sucks, jesus is gay, Jesus etc etc are anti-religious. Jesus itself is simply not.

    But maybe a racist? http://www.antisupernatural.com/jesustheracist.html

    But anyway don't you think that some religious groups see it as offensive then *Jesus* is killing people and sell drugs?
    This is for me in some kind of *anti-religious* of the player who name his char like this! The team should delete this char without any further question ...

    There must be something in the water tonight. :/

    Jesus is not an acceptable character name in Neocron. It might be in Spain or Mexico, but Neocron is not set in Spain or Mexico. Also, this thread should not have been opened in the first place since the matter was settled in the last one.

    Thread closed.
