    To be honest, many times I have encountered situations where Israeli players were involved in some trouble on this server, but also, I noticed the same kind of tendency in other private servers too, not just on MapleRoyals only.

    What I'd like to ask you, is, is this true and does it have something to do with the Country we come from, and possibly even somewhat related to the Middle East conflict with Arabs and the whole Gaza Strip issue, which. are things, that encourage trouble with Israeli players by showing less respect to Israeli players or treating them differently, because of the middle east issues which I admit have nothing to do with citizens of a country.

    Being Israeli myself, I think it can sometimes be an unfair situation, in many ways. But also, it can be understandable considering the amount of frustration and anger people go through when they watch the news with issues like these, and they are obviously pissed off about it sometimes too. I think the understanding of some Canadians and Americans of the Israeli issues and the whole Israeli-Arabs situation can be wrong or understood incorrectly at times, and that could be causing some major problems sometimes too. But, it depends of course. I wouldnt say, every time someone comes to me and starts talking to me about my country and how they are pissed off about a few things about Israel, that automatically means they would disrespect me just because I live in Israel. But, sometimes, thats the case unfortunately. It seem there is a tendency to show less respect to Israeli players unfortunately, which to me seems unfair and also seems unfair to many other Israeli players too. I can only confirm, that none of the normal Israeli citizens have any ability or a way to influence government decisions other than elections, which are quite ineffective and stupid in recent years in Israel. I didnt even participate in elections because of how ridiculous they can be, to be honest with you. I also agree that some Israeli moves are unfair and terrible, which actually encourages war and violence, not discourages it. So its a complicated situation, but the main thing I'd like to know is if Israeli players really get less respect from other players because of these things, or not.

    This is a discussion that is guaranteed to spiral out of control, and we both know that you're savvy enough with these Forums to recognize that. Your questionable phrasing of choice ideas certainly doesn't help either. Is there a reason you chose to bring this up now, especially considering your recent pleas that all you want is to keep a low profile in this community?

    All I’m saying is that stereotypes exist for a valid reason 99/100 times.

    I've had good and bad experiences with every nationality, only an ignorant racist loser could stereotype one or another nationality as being more or less "bad", instead of judging individuals.

    Yeah, I'm stopping this right now because I can see this getting out of hand.
    Sorry for being the fun police, but somebody has to do it.

    All I'm going to say is, for someone who joined on July 4th you sure have a lot of opinions on a game server that you "haven't played before." While I appreciate your enthusiasm in participating on the forums with your unique writing style, I would appreciate it even more if you didn't turn this into a witchhunt on a specific race, or culture.
