Recently, a lot of stuff has been going on Politics and War. Some random guy is coming supporting Ukraine, and some other guy is supporting Russia. There is racism, bullying, harassment and to summarize, pretty "questionable opinions". 

Let us get it now or never; the things you write may be a joke or a depiction of what you are, but the thing should not hurt others, in any way. If you are giving some opinions which are potentially objectional but you just mean to make a lighthearted joke, clarify it. And if anybody claims it as objectional, you can either apologise or just edit stuff out. Your words matter. Even if you are writing on the internet, it affects you and your life. One day, some random guy can find your questionable stuff and ruin your image, even if it was just a light hearted joke.

I know I know, some guys will be telling "hold up, aren't you that guy who posted somewhat controversial content regarding a server?", yes I did and I admit, I was 50-60% wrong. Even if I was correct, I over-exaggerated things up and made the situation bad. 

So, I have pretty much clarified some stuff out, now let's continue.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Russia vs Ukraine: Wherever you go, you will find people commenting about the war. So, let me give my opinion.

Russia-Ukraine conflict is a serious conflict and deserves attention but not in a game.
Yes, it is completely ok and should be a must to stand for the oppressed, such as Ukrainian civilians who are being fired upon, Foreign students studying in Ukraine who are having a lot of difficulty getting evacuated from both the sides and also Russians who are being prosecuted for their open opinion against the war.

But the problem happens when people start debating in comments section about who is right and who is wrong. People literally go toxic on others, and this is problematic. We are here to have a separate type of feel from the real world. Do you guys really think that telling "stand up from Ukraine" affects anybody here? NO.
People come here to play a game, and to get some fun playing it. If you suddenly interfere their fun by telling "Ukraine the best" or "Russia is correct", do you really expect people to play the game normally anymore? Make your comments properly. Sympathize with the correct people and be honest. Don't justify a thing that is not justifiable, i.e.- War crimes. (I specifically don't want to elaborate further in this, thank you.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Racism: ok, let's be honest, Racism has been a long issue in this game. Even though less nowadays, it is still prevalent on Politics and war. Now, if you are wondering, where racism mainly comes from in PnW, it is from many bulletin comments.

let's take an incident in reference:

A player posted a light hearted funny bulletin which had little to no objectionable content. But, Somehow in comments, the thing got tangled up and a commenter posted a thing that is just, offensive. Now, when the bulletin poster tried to tell it is offensive, the commenter told it is just roleplay. 

After this, do you really expect things to work well? Racism, in any way, should be intolerable. Racism destroyed millions of lives, and even after this, we take this thing so lightheartedly, that it is some sort of cartoon.
Let's please not forget those millions oppressed and getting oppressed due to Racism in Americas, Europe, Asia, Australia and many more places. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3) Accusations: Recently, a screenshot came where the leader of an alliance allegedly was writing racial slurs. 
Later, it turned out according to the leader, the screenshot is allegedly fake and was made because the create of the alleged screenshot wanted the alliance to merge with the creator's.

I really think so we need to analyze in the matter. Although I am in favour of the screenshot being false, I still think that there should be a more proper investigation, as literally, the alliance was raided by an alliance based on this accusation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is all I can say freely. I want to say more, but due to fear of forever being known as a joker and being bullied, I won't speak more.

look brother, I am not here to cause a scene, but there is a reason why I wrote this bulletin.
This is not a roleplay bulletin, but rather a bulletin regarding real life issues which are prevalent in the game.

Today, If I don't write this type of bulletin, nobody will ever understand the problem. Although I really didn't write much, what I did write are important to be discussed healthily.

Most people aren't really going to make a true sincere effort to understand the problem anyway. People are superficial like that, especially when it comes to the internet. Oh they'll be vocal about it temporarily and do some false virtue signaling for easy reputation and social credit points for a time, pretending that they actually give a f**k when in reality they really don't just to look good to the public, then they will forget about it by the end of the day.
