Why is it ok to make hateful jokes about diplomatics and pacifists? Obviously they are not lessor citizens who's beliefs are worthy of scorn.
It's not okay to direct vague attacks towards a persons/people's race or religion right? Its not ok to promote violence (disrepect and attack) toward another person or people unless they are terrorists or it is roleplay, correct? I would like some clarity from a moderator or anyone. And please dont just tell me its only a joke, I know that. I do not accept that logic when someone tells a hateful racist joke or a hateful religous joke, even if told innocently and with no hate in the tone.

G'Kar, I think you missed the point Usama Bin Laden is not a MEMBER of the Board, neither are the terrorist. Diplomats and Pacifists are not people those are words that discribe philosophies and attitudes of people. While philosophies can direct peoples actions and thoughts they can not be members of the board, only humans can be members. Ziroc is saying did not intentionally offend any MEMBER OF THE IRON WORKS BOARD (or FAMILY if you will). If someone states that they are offended applogize without quailifiers, instead of fighting about how they couldn't possibly be offended because we all have the right to say what is on our minds! Basicly show respect, if you are offended it is ok to say so, if the offending party applogizes accept it without quailifiers.
