    Take it to the backroom if you want to discuss morality. It's a game. Made of 1s and 0s. There is nothing living in there. If you seriously believe you are really shooting your grandfather, please put down the controller or the mouse and go read a book.

    I, for one, would very much enjoy a German campaign. Except for really crappy portrayals of WWII battles (read: Battlefield 1942), no other game really allows you to play a full German campaign in a FPS. And on that topic, I want to see a Russian campaign that is NOT set in Stalingrad. Or Berlin. Heck, I want to play as the US Marines or the Japanese in the Pacific! Give us the forgotten campaigns!

    EDIT: Let's not forget the Aussies, Chinese, and Canadians either

    Or the Finns, Hungarians, Romanians, Italians, French, and the Indians.

    Edit: And Greeks, and Serbs, and Macedonians, and Albanians, and Croats, and Bosnians, and Slovaks, and Czechs, and Poles, and Dutch, and Belgians, and Bulgarians, and Slovenians, and Hertzegovinians... and the list goes on.

    Look mate, that is quite offending to me because i hold the diggers in high respect! plus i have freedom of speech! you might say you have freedom of speech but if you look up freedom of speech properly then it will say ' Allowed to say anything but offending or violent' well that's offending to me so i want an apology! other wise, i'll report ya!

    Freedom of speech only goes so far on a privately owned and funded server. You are required keep the religious, moral, debate, and political topics in their respective areas. It's the reason why we have moderators in the first place, so the forum does not degenerate into often off-topic topics in clearly defined subforums.

    :Draws a hairpin and holds it poised, ready to throw to get people's attention:

    Morality in general belongs in the backroom; morality in games can belong in the arena, provided that the thread abide by the arena's polite and fluffy rules and doesn't become a backroom style brawl.

    I have no objections to a thread being started to discuss the topic. However, this thread isn't the best place for such a debate; it wouldn't be a small subtopic within the larger discussion, but would equal or dominate the original topic.
