Hi Tenebrus.. Curly one...what does tht ACTUALLY say in German (can't be bothered to fish it)?..,.You played a series of games with this playerm 1V1 and didn't have any dramas till the last game...none of the game chat "outs " you as Jewish and none of the other game's chat seems "untoward"? Where i the bigotry?..I(f I post "Springtime for Hitler!!!" after someone takes me out, it;s hardly bigotry is it?...Again, I don't know what the translation means but if you post a bloody C&A YOU should provide the translation...Just FAMO rather thn get the Gestapo involved???
Oh I'm not Jewish, and yeah, we had been getting on fine. I'm not sure of the exact translation, but juden means Jewish and kop I think is an insult? The sieg hiel is fairly obvious. I actually don't want to FAMO, I'm happy to play him again, I just think it's important not to let that stuff go.
I personallye don't thinkthat sying seig hiel in a war game is bigotry....it was a war cry from warring nation..similarly....Tora, Tora, Tora was a race-based war chant from the Japanse in the Pacific but unles it was specifically directed I ouldn't find it offensive/bigotted even if posted by Japanese national inthe context of CC...maybe you need to grow a thicker skin,,,it's war site, be prepared to be offended...I DON'T think the original post was inteded to be offensive to jewish pps so pl don't rush in to be offended on the behalf on the off=chance???

Play him again? You think its important? WHAT?
You get beat up in school? Personally, I offended how fast you ran away from the jew question. It Just tells the community your a baby. I'd be afraid to take Iceland from you without a pacifier handy. So cover your man-Gina and apologize for being weak!

Literally it means "Hail Victory" but I thought that everyone knew what Sieg Heil really means, it's indeed a Nazi salute. It's what the amassed crowds would chant before and after a speech by Adolf Hitler. It's almost the same as saying Heil Hitler. Judenkop means Jewface. This kind of behavior doesn't belong on CC and a warning is definitely in place to say the least.
Why is bigotry the ultimate commandment on this site anyway? I mean I don't think it's cool but a hell of a lot of other stuff goes on that's just as ugly and it gets the brush off.

I'm not sure the OP is suggesting that it's the ultimate problem, or commandment. I hope that you're posting more out of frustration at the things that are given a pass, rather than dismissing this. It's easy to say that their are worse things out there, but it's not really an excuse to let other stuff go as simply "not cool".

You're right this isn't the place my above statement and don't get me wrong, I don't take bigotry lightly. It just seems that recently there have been some bigotry accusations used as weapons instead of genuine concern. This is not one of those cases, btw. As far as this particular instance I do think that there is an obvious infraction. The comment was uncalled for.
Does that really mean Jew face? Just a real question as I can't find that to be true. And only one can speculate as him referring to hitler it is a war game maybe he was only referring to Victory.

I believe it is possible he was referring to victory. Many of my friends in real life will say seig heil GeneralRisk. and I always assumed they referred to victory at cc GeneralRsk.

"Seig heil" is pretty obvious dude. I guess we can speculate about the rest, although the "Juden" is kind of obvious too. I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Seig heil was used by the nazis but how does that make it bigotry?? That's what I'm getting at. Judenknop does that really mean Jew face if you don't know don't troll my post. That's was a honest question beacuse I can't seem to find the answer. Let's say he did call him Jew face I know some hot Jewish chicks so what is the big deal. I mean really this is a war battle gaming site are we really going to over analyze every word and every damn sentence people say. You can only suspect as to the meanings in his conversation.
I think goat face would piss me off more as Afro said you would have to be racist for that to hurt your feeling.

If calling someone a jew is bigotry then calling them a jewface is as well. I don't make the rules.

Then sure don't call me American face come on guys. And still does Judenknop mean Jew face ??? I'm still with my hands up.
If your a Jew your a Jew. If your Russian your Russian ? Is Russian face bigotry. This site needs to more about the game not words ( that mean nothing ) I do understand people go to far but here you have to speculate as what his intentions where.
There are LESS and LESS pps playing on this site...maybe one of the big reasons is that it's becoming debating society? Sure we don't want to let offensive WHATEVERprobes run rampant but can pps please stop trying to create their own perfect world on a WarGame internet site? Fight to the death to stop bullying and racist attacks but please STOP the C&A reports over nuances...I've manned street barricades against oppressive authorities in my own country but I get the shits with constant bickering over what may or may not offend people elsewhere...If something is not already outlawed in the CC Rules, take it up with the CC Philosophy Mods...don't come drive plaYERS away in droves because the fucking Romans didn't build enough aquaducts...

I'm assuming that he was going for Yiddisher Kop, and got confused. Parsing what he wrote into explainable chunks does make it seem less offensive, I guess, but really it's the combination that makes it offensive.
