Happy early Ramadan!

I wonder why people keep saying that such posts have nothing to do with WoW.
A vast part of the community is muslim, so why being a D and flagging a simple congratulation post?

Sounds fishy but Iā€™m willing to give it a try. :cat:

Oh I got a literal taste of ingame cooking roleplay in the past on my roleplay server, too. Also have like every ingredient and herb ever released as stack on my bank account, just in case an alt needs to fulfil some cookien quest. :joy:

The answer to this is simple. Posts like this display diversity. To which a certain part of the community reacts as allergic as a person with lactose intolerance to milk.

It indeed is not wow related, but some wow players are Muslims and itā€™s not against the rules to make a Happy Ramadan thread. They flag it every year, and it gets restored every year.

If flagging fails, they attempt to derail it.

Hope to see them again next year :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

oh and the ā€œhappy Womenā€™s dayā€ thread is even more chaotic than this one. sums up the forums pretty well :rofl:

Still donā€™t get it. How the gameā€™s community is not game related?
Itā€™s not that they talk about somethingg personal (like the story of their cat swallowing its own fur and belching on the new white carpet), but they simply congrats a huge part of the people who play the game. Nothing else. I really donā€™t get it why some people are soā€¦ Iā€™m not really sure what to call them. Evil in nature? Sad? Dunno.

Anyway, Iā€™m glad the number of ones who can still enjoy this life is higher.

You got flagged most likely because itā€™s against the rules to talk about religion and attack a member of a community for their religion.

As for this thread, itā€™s simply a ā€œhappy religious event threadā€ which is perfectly allowed, and if people donā€™t like it they can easily scroll up. But I guess itā€™s too much work.

Peace :star_and_crescent: :latin_cross: :star_of_david: :om:

  1. This thread is about religion. Rhamadan is an Islamic tradition.

  2. I attacked no one. Criticising an ideology is not attacking anyone.

Itā€™s a happy ā€œreligious eventā€ thread, which Is allowed. Is English your first language? Because itā€™s not hard to understand.

Happy Easter, Happy Hannikuh, Happy Ramadan, Happy Holi, Happy Christmas threads are all allowed.

Talking and debating about religion is not.

Easy.

If you have any questions and concerns, you can always contact a Mod or the customer service. :smile: and Iā€™m sure they will explain further.

Religious eventā€¦so about religion then.

Mods donā€™t follow the rules that are stickied to the front page, which state no posts about topics that are not WoW related, and Ramadan falls under that category.

No religious threads should be allowed. This is not social media. I donā€™t want to have to scroll through countless unrelated drivel just to find some interesting WoW related posts.

Take it up with customer service. :upside_down_face:

And yet the threads keep being restored, which clearly shows itā€™s allowed.

Again speak to the Moderators of the forums. Ask them. Donā€™t ask me lol.

Oh and the ā€œAnizahā€ clone/troll liking your posts is the icing on the cake :rofl: I love the forums.

Itā€™s called bias. They allow whatever they like, whether itā€™s against the rules or not.

Can I make football posts for the community within the game that enjoys football? No, because itā€™s not related to the game.

Are you sure English is your first language? Because itā€™s not hard not to contradict yourself within the span of a few hours.

Meaning it is against forum code of conduct.

Itā€™s rather impressive how you managed to contradict yourself in one sentence LOL

English is my second language. Arabic is my first.

And yet even I can see I didnā€™t contradict myself. I said in both comments that ā€œhappy Ramadanā€ threads are perfectly allowed.

Christmas isnā€™t related to wow either, but itā€™s allowed.

Know the difference dear.

Thanks

The irony with you absolutely hilarious :joy: keep going pleaseā€¦

Yeahā€¦ People doā€¦ every major tournamentā€¦ we even chat about rugby occasionally, which is arguably better than football with a much better behaved fan base :grin:

I made a post over the WC and it got taken down in an hour.

Only reason this is still up is because theyā€™ll scream ā€˜ISLAMOPHOBIA!!!ā€™ The victim card has already been played:

Disciplined for actually breaking the rules? Impossible! You must have a problem with my religion!

Disgusting.

If itā€™s not WoW related, then itā€™s not allowed. Read below.

Whataboutism is not a valid argument. This is not a Christians vs Muslims thread.

Learn what the definition of irony means.

Strange, I remember WC and Euro threads staying up for days :woman_shrugging: perhaps yours was a second or third thread or devolved into arguments or derailed to the point it had to be 404ā€™d/hidden.

The fact is, we have many ā€œoff topicā€ threads and even over on the US forums they have a dedicated off topic lounge which we were denied because we arenā€™t well enough behaved for one, however they do allow us a certain amount of off topic discussion provided we are respectful about it hence the ā€œdo not deleteā€ foodie thread and the ā€œGD loungeā€ and ā€œmusicā€ threads.

We are, after all, human beings and it is in our nature to chat and wonder off topic a little, try it and enjoy. You might even make some new wow friends.

Not that ā€œmaskedā€ orc though :joy: he is too edgy and ironic but doesnā€™t seem to see his own irony which just makes it even more hilarious to watch.

Sighā€¦ā€¦ My Autistic self has better things to do than repeat myself a 1000 times to people who canā€™t understand what is and what isnā€™t allowed.

Again: speak to the Mods! But you donā€™t want to do that, instead you want to derail this thread.

So my hands are tied. Canā€™t deal with people like that.

Have a wonderful month and may you prosper in your life and find success. I have no hate towards you, but I have no patience to make you understand forum rules either.

Good day
