Hello there,

I was playing at your #1 server with my assault named Bedingfield (main soldier name is Torham, if that helps) and joined a discussion about leveling in this game. I typed "leveling is cancer of this game" as a discussion entry and got banned for racist language...

The joke is... "cancer" is not a racist/rude word...English Dictionary (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Cancer?s=t).

I apologize for using that word, did not intend to use it in any racist context and even I did not know you consider it racist (which is, honestly, BS - considering its real meaning).

Thank you for examining my case in fair nature.

Cancer is used allot as a swear word.
That's why it's in the list of auto banned words.

The filter does not take the context in mind of the sentence. It gets automatically triggered.

Such disease is not something to laugh or wish to anybody.

The ban al tough only last for 1 game round. ;)
So when the round ended you should be able to join the server again.

(Passing by. ;) )

^Understand and thank you. I did not know this was only a 1-round ban. Will know now :) ÂÂ*

Of course nobody should wish or laugh upon cancer, but I did not use it in that manner. I will be more careful next time. Thank you for information :)
