On the other hand I know that this game is made by Aussies and that they're a lot more easy going than my typical North Americans. newspeak is in full force also. i can't use my character names from over a decade ago because everything is offensive now. pretty soon we'll just have character numbers.

Australia used to be strict on gaming as it didn't have an 'R' rating for video games. It now does and a huge backlog of new and old games are lined up to be classified. Online games were never covered by the Australian codes as they were deemed 'unable to be classified based on their very nature'. Though that does not take into account the Aussie usage of f*ck as an adjective, a noun, a verb and a pronoun as well as punctuation. :D The Templar kills for Faith - The Shadow kills for Money - The Duelist kills for Fame - The Marauder kills for Pride - The Ranger kills for Survival - The Scion kills for Attention (Emo much?) ... and the witch... She kills for Revenge ... tbc	Posted by Alexandrina#6174 on Jan 31, 2013, 5:52:45 PM Quote this Post

Fun fact: New Zealand was rated higher by an international third party than the USA when it comes to personal freedoms. I miss when my country was undoubtably the greatest. On the topic of names that are sure to be reported, "Hi."	Posted by Bigpurpleharness#4935 on Jan 31, 2013, 6:04:55 PM Quote this Post
