But now are we supposed to never use "terrorism", "anthrax", "bombing", "hijacking" in context again? Give me a break..

Yeah, if we remove anthrax for this reason, we may as well remove bombs too. Bombs have killed way more people than anthrax ever has.

I am pretty sure Diablo 2 has a Mature Rating, does Graal? Use your head before you post stupid arguments like this.

It was a example you peabrain. Fussing over a type of poision doesn't seem logical anyways?


And who said Graal has a rating? I never seen a rating for Graal, if you seen a rating for Graal please point me in the right direction.

Why don't you go back to that **** server with a place called Hooters that you so call manage

I applaud your maturity.

If you've read anything on the website or had any common sense at all, you would have realized that graal is geared more towards children. If you were just a bit smarter, you also would have realized that if it is geared towards children that are at least 12 years of age, it wouldn't have extreme stuff that would be in a game with a mature rating. Diablo 2 has a mature rating, graal is geared towards children, so why are you trying to compare the two and justify using something in Diablo with something in graal?

Now in my previous post, I didn't criticize you, I criticized your argument. If you had been just a bit more mature, you would have either backed up your argument or not even posted, since you have no common sense and it would just make yourself look more dumb. Bringing up Old Delteria doesn't help you too much either, because it doesn't pertain to the subject and also has not been online for about 8 months now. So when you find some intelligence and want to argue about this logically, you can forum pm me because there is no point in spamming the forums with your immature posts.

I don't think the use of Anthrax warrants a Mature rating.

It's merely a fungus spore thing, nothing too 'extreme' for 12 year olds.

You forgot "Skyscraper", "New York", "Crash", "Mail", "US" and "United States".

Meh, I guess Stefan should take out the anthrax. I have nothing wrong with it, and I don't think you need to be that mature to play games with a poisen just because it was recently used on America..I understand your point Max-imus, but I think it's ignorant. Why do you need to be mature to play in a game with anthrax?

If anthrax offends people, so be it. Let them have their way. Having the name changed to black death or something won't hurt us.

Who cares. You guys that think anthrax should be taken down are the kind of people that would censor news.
So stop being all "you can't do this!". Graal is a private game. Therefore, they can do what they want(within the boundries of law, and using the word anthrax is).


EDIT:And do NOT let them have their way. Or it will be one thing after the next.

They can use the word anthrax, but I doubt they would want to if they knew what most Americans think of it. If this anthrax was mentioned in a review or something, I don't think the parents are going to want to buy the kids an account with their credit card. The could take the anthrax the wrong way.

Grim Squeaker:

Actually Europeans could easily be just as offended at the usage of the word Anthrax, simply because at the time that the sending of mail packages containing miscallaneous white powder was quite usual it also happened a lot in Europe.
However, us Europeans really couldn't care less, and are not inclined to comparing reality with games.

I could find a number of things wrong with 2k2 to be "offended" by. How about those multicoloured mushrooms?

Anthrax has been around for hundreds of years.

It's always been deadly, but only recently has it been made worse, and more toxic.

So, Anthrax could exist in a medieval setting.

Yes it has been around for a while, but, until the contaminated envelopes went out it was hard for one to get anthrax. Either way you put it, it certainly wasn't appropriate to put in the game.
