So what do you suggest they re-name it?

I don't know, but personally I don't think it's appropriate. It's like having a Bulldog event disguised as players running to and from air raid shelters to avoid bombings, just seems uncomfortable as a platform for an event.

Zzz... Could name it survival, but like I said I don't agree.
Not that big of a deal, I mean if it REALLY offends you, then i don't see why not change it.
But man... whatever.

On that note,
The entire concept and name of the event is questionable. I mean, "Gas Chamber" doesn't ring many other bells. I think the entire event should be removed, its insulting, and ignorant.. and that's coming from me.

On another note,

ROFLMAO VIN, NOICEE!!!! AHAHAHAHHAHAH, I shoulda been online, BLACK MAN WOULDA SURVIVED! CHEA BOIIIII!!!! AHAHAHAHA. Dats some funny ****, man!

Erm... erm... yes, it was very ignorant, don't try it again... there was alot of heartache, (and lungache) during those events, it is no joking matter.

Remember, WIL SOUL FOR ET! YES WE CAN!
You down wit WILLIAM SOUL?! YEA DATS FO SHO!

I'm William Soul, and I approve this message.

;o Wil takes to posting while on drugs?


That is rather stupid to do, it could be renamed Survival Chamber or something. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the Jewish players might take offense to it.

just because your corrupted, disturbed, and sick mind thinks of a certain tragic event in history when you see this event doesn't mean it should be renamed.

The event should be renamed in my opinion. How can you not think back to the holocaust especially since most schools teach you about it.

Because "gas chamber" does not specifically refer to the Holocaust. You're only thinking of it because you want to be.

There's no reason to rename the event; that's like saying we should conform to everyone by bending out of our way to make sure no one is offended by stupid stuff like this.

If the event continues to be mishosted, however, perhaps a name change would be needed since Squirt/Maverick (passing the blame) can't seem to find good ETs .
