I'm an American, if someone cracked a joke about 9/11 I would laugh and move on with my life, but you know what? You're right, 9/11 jokes are just plane wrong

Culture clash - Arab Muslims and Eastern Countries / West
Previous to this topic : link ->" Bytro and Americans Culture Clash "<- link
I would just like to mention one thing before that thread - which is closed - is completely forgotten.
People have discussed a Culture clash between Europe and America.
--------
You should see the culture class between Arab Muslims and Americans. It is QUITE evident. It is also evident
which side is adhered to, and cared for most, as opposed to the Muslims who have made complaints previously,( a number of times).
This community is supposed to be fair for all, but it is not. 
Report processing against players seem one sided, support also seems one sided.
Whatever happened to true neutrality?
I will not discuss bans, however i will discuss processing of Reports against players.
It appears to me that some staff from the West seem to prefer to process reports in favor of western players, rather than
East that thinks they have equal right to process a Report against a player for obvious reasons.
This selective treatment is evident with snarky replies from some supermoderators such as this one:
"Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to report this chat message. Proper action (absolutely nothing) has been taken against the user and with your continued help, I can waste time doing tickets instead of being in chat."
That's, according to my experience with many company games and interaction with staff, quite unprofessional and of bad taste to send to a player who has spent currency to support a game like this one. 
Infact, some issues raised were the excessive intentional use of the word bacon in chat as stated in this forum thread by a number of people complaining previously:
Link -> " http://forum.supremacy1914.com/showthread.php?130225-Chat-Rules-Bacon-and-the-ABL " <- Link
The excessive word of "Bacon" is obviously used to incite and flame an argument with people of different ethnic groups, because to them, it is Haram. It is not the point that the word itself is Offensive, the point is that people use it excessively to mock and offend intentionally that is the problem.
This community IS supposed to be neutral, however IS NOT, considering some nationalist western players are allowed to just go ahead and share their opinions about " Bombing other peoples countries " without being warned or asked to be polite. 
( AND IN THE PRESENCE OF MODERATORS ) who APPARENTLY find this acceptable behavior. Then proceed unto chatting with each other posting images of destruction of these said countries in the presence of people of this said country.
Different perspective : How would an American feel, if an Arab or Muslim posted images of 9/11 and cracked jokes about that? Im sure a ****storm would break out right there and then.
^ INFACT, state in chat " Hillary for president 2016 " and watch the ultra-nationalists come out of the nook and crannies of the deep web with their right wing extremism.

Really? You are getting butt hurt because folks are using the word "bacon" in chat to excess with the alleged goal of harassing you???
Couple of thoughts come to mind.
1) When did you surrender control of your state of mind to some ijit prattling on about something that you don't like? Why are you allowing them to control you like that?
2) Why should anyone moderate or ban their speech to not cause offense? If the topic or the way it is being discussed causes you distress, that is a problem with how you are receiving the message, not how they are transmitting it. Control your response to the message and they become powerless.
3) What the heck is wrong with bacon??? I am living in Saudi Arabia at the moment and I _really_ don't get the prohibition on bacon. I am not going to walk down the street and force feed it to people. It is not going to attack them in the middle of the night and baconize them. The Baconator is no more real than the Boogieman. Let those who want bacon, have it.
As for cultural differences between the Arab world and the Western world, the one that bugs me the most is the incessant blaming of God/Allah for the incompetence of the speaker. "Inshallah" should not be an excuse for being lazy or useless or other wise non-productive. Next time I hear a service provider say "Inshallah" I am going to tell him that "God helps those who help themselves!"
Now, stop being butt hurt and let me get back to work so I can "bring home the bacon".

I'm not going to take action on a player for talking about a bacon cheeseburger any sooner than I would tell a player (s)he cannot say, "God Damn." Nor would I expect, accept, or stand behind any of my Moderators whom want to support (not just protect) any Religion.
IF a player attacks a Religion, Race, Creed, Gender, Disability Status, or Sexual Orientation, (s)he is breaking the rules. We (staff) simply are not here to play in ANY Religion's Jihad. Just because your Religion states that you may not do something, does not mean EVERYBODY on the internet needs to abide by that. As far as I am concerned, every single Moderator in my command is Agnostic, and that is how every single one of us will, and always will, operate.
Because this thread was created in an attempt to revive problems from it's predecessor, along with start NEW fires, it will be closed.
Free Time looks good on me
