A dutchman has given us the answer.

Ah I see. Well in all truth, most of the post in that topic were hardly based on concrete facts. In reality thier beliefs were acclumilated mostly by assumptions and gossip, which is most likely incorrect. Truth be told, I believe if your not American, you have no right to bash America, (at least not here) I do not go around stating false facts on why other country's suck, so I appreciated that others wouldn't either. To allow them to do so in thier so called "Facts" is a contradiction majorly. Also, you stating uneccessary bashing is outlawed, however this implies that you may or may not feel that the Bashing on American is considered neccessary. Not saying this how you truly feel, just interuptating the statement. Isn't all bashing...uneccessary?




I was not point blame towards you Shugo. I stated that the American topic turned into one big place to bash America, not stating that was it's orginal intention. If I was actually point blame to anyone...it was those who American Bashed within that thread.

Okay...stop bringing up America.

Yay for Perez
Right, time to start blithering on about england.
Or shall we just stop talking about different country's and get back to darn point of this whole damn topic. That is, if anyone can remember what it was.

How about we say "No one make fun of ANY country ever again whether you hate or not."?

And then...we can close this topic...=\

why is this topic still going? What needs to be said is already said. now you all are spamming here.

Can I refer to Americans as "yanks"?

Uh, why would you want to? And no, personally, I don't like it. I'm from the South and calling someone a "yank" (short for "yankee") is an insult. Hence the Southern phrase of "da** yankee"--it's intended to be insulting.

Call me a "yank" and I'll hiss at you. *growls*

Actually, he can call you a yank, because, the only people he can't call yanks as of now are residents of Portugal.

And about that rule, anyways, it was made because pretty much every forum had at least a few Portugal insults in it, it was indeed getting out of hand.

It would be nice to have a 'No Country Flaming/Bashing" rule, though. Like Aurora_Star said.

Yes Sir Riogi-sama!

Basically, we can all realize that bashing another country is against the rules. And no, you may not call an American a yank, just like you can't call an asian that dreaded "c" word, etc. etc.

BAM!

A little supplement :

No one is allowed to break the rules. Aurora did get 10 % of warning and a two days post exclusion from me because he couldn't be called exactly a "newbie" for breaking the rules.

Then, someone banned him because he was already at 100 % and because he used the word gay. So please stop telling that I banned him. It's not my decision, but I won't hide the fact that I'm happy this decision was took for the sake of the KAF site.

Now, about the argumentation about the countries : if I catch someone telling : portugal and usa are cr*ppy countries (not what I'm thinking, here as a sample), then, it's a violation of the rules. If I catch someone saying : I dislike USA for what they have done (here reason X or Y), then, for me, there's no violations.

That's the difference between argumenting and spamming. And if you think that bashing a country isn't against the rules : I'll tell you that : it's against 3.4, offensive content and illegal material.

Now, you're not allowed to criticize your own country without giving proper reasons... Exactly the same as other countries. Please report any unusal activity about countries directly to me or to the administrators using the inbox please.
