Open mindedness

If you are too scared to speak out in a game how will you ever speak out in life? Like in society, there are people who want to possess us. I refuse to be 'owned'.
Therefore why not be open minded. This game is for entertainment purpose only, I have other things to do, so have not much time usually. What makes the fun distasteful is that its quite concern to shame others if their opinion does not satisfy you. Not to be angered by Someone with different views.
If that means being a 'foreigner' Seen as majority here are American players(some, not all. I have no proof) who take this game seriously, I would rather that than ass lick round people who are non respectful in a clever way, and some of whom are downright cheats.
In real world we move on. So rather than always relying on the past, for those who call a certain clan lets scammers in that is a ignorant generalization.
It's the normal way to deal with issues. Move on. That's the dutch way.
Please reply with manner if you disagree with the following statements. I might be incorrect. Please don't attempt bashing or insults. That's not the way to have a discussion.

You seem overly obsessed with people's nationality, it seems to be a bit of a trend in your posts.
I find on these forums people love to say how unimportant the game is to them yet they post every little bit of drama they can think of.
If a clan repeatedly let's scamscum join that makes the clan a scam clan, I can fully understand it's honest members being embarrassed and ashamed of it but denying it just shows ignorance and denial.

Every time you reply you say, someone is creating drama. However the person who states that are creating it him/herself.
I think I've mentioned people not to insult others. I dont get where you got that thought of me getting obsessed with nationalities. Your discussion doesn't make sense.
If you cant make a peaceful discussion, then dont reply

Elim nothing against you but you say your country better then Aralus is dutch so am i so the nationalty doesnt care if you speak about it.
Example
Eliminator says dutch ppl are dumb they are stinky bah and many more
And we way 'dutch ppl are the tallest ppl in the world, they the happyest ppl in the world'
But as soon as aralus write a topci about america or so noo then everybody get mad because he means ALL AMERICAN ARE BAD, no we dont say.
So just defend your country, ofc you can be proud about it but it doesnt say other ppl can say something about it everybody got his own oppion is choose aralus side because im dutch to.
Just grown up and let the man speak his word

Well Aralus and Luuky, Up until last Spring I knew a Specialist nurse for nearly two years. She would come to my home more often as time passed and as well as being incredibly good at her job she was also kind and with a good sense of humour. This nurse was born in northern Holland (West Friesland), and she would talk about her childhood growing up on a farm. She is highly respected in this part of the world, because she is a palliative nurse (a hard job to do as she doesn't get to see any of her patients survive their illness). The fact that she is tall is not something that should matter....is it??? As to being 'smelly' well I spent time in Holland when I was young and the Dutch seem a very clean race to me! Two of the greatest artists who ever lived, Rembrandt and Van Gogh, were Dutch....then there was Vermeer! So here's to Holland.
As to America, when I was a child I LOVED looking at cowboy films and I decided that when I grew up I would definitely be one and also drink Coca~Cola all day, chew bubble gum and look at cartoons. To this day I think the early Disney animated cartoon characters are actually sheer genius (also Tom & Jerry). I think the Americans have every right to feel proud of their liberation from Britain (which started with the punitive taxes imposed upon them, with barrels of imported tea ending up being thrown into the harbour at Boston, as those early settlers fought back against British rule). It became known as, 'The Boston Tea Party' and ignited the American war of Independence.
I think America has achieved many great things and it would be both ignorant and churlish to deny that. But like every country it has also done bad things in this world. Certainly its banking systems are corrupt, as they are in the UK and no doubt all of Europe. The greatest threat to all our liberty has in fact been an out of control banking mafia in the West and still our politicians turn the other way and do not implement strict rules on their conduct. But then many politicians end up working for banks, as becoming travelling ambassadors for them. So instead of fighting one another I think we should be fighting our banking systems! Some observers have noted that in actual fact, most wars the West engages in are not about liberating people at all, but rather liberating their oil and gold! If the West had a genuine agenda to liberate oppressed nations then why didn't we invade Zimbabwe and a host of other African States that have lived under tyrannical dictatorships for decades.

I'm not sure if it's a lack of understanding on my part (your words) or on your part(my words) but at no time did I say any country was better than another, I didn't even imply it in any way lol
I have no reason to defend my country and I have nothing against the Dutch or any other nation.
Basically this post was a shot at American players.
Furthermore I'm not sure I ever responded to a post by Ara before yet he uses terms like "every time"

I have over 4400 posts, maybe 4-5 say stop being a drama queen or something of the like.
