He is not alone Falcon**

If you think it's cool to have an avatar like this ... you're mistaken.

Hmm... there are many things that different people may find offensive... even those D*** and B*** words in Straffo's sig. Where is the line? Nazi swastikas were removed and even though the first pic in his new avatar was not of very good taste, was it really prohibited somewhere? Are the letters SS also so bad in a game related to WWII? Are there also other insignias that are prohibited? Is Ramzey moderating the avatars? What is going on here?

Just wondering.....

Personaly I find SS insignia much more offensive than the Swatstika.

It can be argued that Rall; Galland et al mere young men defending their homeland; flying under the national insignia of the time.

I don't buy it; but it can be argued so.

With the SS; there's no argument.

We're talking bona fides Nazis here. There is no "kindler; gentler" face to the SS. They; and everything they stood for; was evil.

Seeker, how much have you studied or read about SS (e.g. the foreign volunteers and late war SS troops)? That issue could be argued just as well but most likely this forum and this thread are not the best place.

BTw... I did not know that Rall or Galland were nazis.. or did you just refer to them because they were Germans flying in LW? How do you feel about the new Pope and his background?

BK ,Falcon** 1st avatar was not really good according to my taste ,nothing more.

The 2nd one was worst IMO that's why I reacted.

Adolf was not a boy scout, and using him and differents symbols in an animated avatar is bad taste and a provocation.

PS : between my 2 posts there was a deleted one.

Patriots must believe their leaders are moral and just but that doesn’t make it so.
You’re free to skin planes for Rall; Galland et al as a way of commemorating their courage but that’s far different from the Nazi symbols, swastikas and Hitler posters.

Falcon had the stylized SS as part of his board avatar for as long as I can remember, wondered why he wasn’t called on it, but now that he crossed the line and called attention to himself, I figure all bets are off and Skuzzy already deleted his avatar twice. I hope he doesn’t push it again if he gets the chance to come back.

I removed them myself, Skuzzy and BlauK have been the respectful ones, the rest of you just came in here to throw stones. (enough said)
