Legion: Nazi Symbolism

[Gravitas]

I am leaving, though. I've said all I've had to say, and arguing further is fruitless.

I asked a question, and I got a response. A lot was revealed about this guild and about Eagles/Symbolism/Nazis/etc in the process, and I don't regret having asked it.

Good luck, and goodbye.

if u ever decide to get back here again Gravitas... heres my response after reading all these pages..

if i have gotten all of your ( acording to me, ignorant, childish, blindfolded ) question/assumption/or call it whateva u like...

The short short short answer is:
YES, it has!
but heres the thing! your "question" is wrong !!!!

the short short answer to your question is:
No, but nazi-germany used the eagle and MANY more ALLREADY excisting ( read 100's n´1000's years ago ) symbols for their own purpose.

Wich this comunity of players/friends/whateva is also doing, but not NOT in the name of anythig like that...

when i saw legion the first time, it was in a came called Planetarion, it was a text-based game, extremly addictive..

The only thing i could see about this guild/alliance/comunity was these "banners", "pictures" of what they stood for...

NEVER ever came one thought to mind about anything related to germany other then that of the movie gladiator.. the war in the beginning of the movie..

some history from me..

the only thing, ONLY thing i know about my real inherritence is that my grandfather was a SS-officer who died in WW2 when they attacked France.
My grandmother was just an ordinary person from norway.
My mother was left at a... hmm.. barnhem = childrens home ??!!?? to grow up in... she moved to sweden to look fro relatives after she had grown up abit..
thats the short reason why i live in sweden..

but hey, does that make me to a NAZI ???

hense the reason why i think your "questions" was childish and very grabbed right out in the air, with no solid ground to stay on...

i got upset about your question as well.. mostly cause you asked it wrong with what you are trying to defend later on in your posts!

you have given all the answers but still you are looking for YOUR answer, and justifying it with more "assumtions"... it was a good thing you stopped and left... but i hope you come back after you have reflected on everything you wrote and everyone else wrote, and come to the conclusion, that you blinded screamed wolf with NOTHING to base it to...

you have been given a very interesting site be4:

I wake up, and this thread is still going. A+ Troll.

[Tiddy]

God dammit, this thread has gotten too fucking tame.


BTW, I think Grav is actually a Nazi and was just wanting friends :(


Oh, and <3 Bob, glad you came through in true fation since rids seems to have gotten laid or something.

[MEGUNT]

[Gaijin]

[Iminay]

bob, where is that sex machine of a brother of yours ?!
promise he will be on teamspeak tonight so i can cyber him?

[montie]

gravitas.. you get the feeling that alot of the people in legion are not high school drop outs and you really really picked on the wrong people? ;)

1: Thread Delivers

2: Quality

3: Hes not just Canadian, me thinks its highly likely hes French-Canadian - Emphasis on *French*

4:

The symbol aside, did you read those huge fuckoff words The Legion and the motto Victuri Te Salutant before you posted? Did you notice that you posted on a forum known as the "colosseum"? Did the thought "ANCIENT ROME" not quite frankly drop out of the sky and smack you in the face like stone cold steve austin wielding a 2x4? Then to add insult to injury, you come onto a forum on the internet expecting not to be flamed for such stupidity and to cap it off for the irony of all ironies you call yourself "Gravitas".

All I want to know is how you are going to beat this fantastic feat of stupidity.

Quite possibly the best post in this thread.

[Animoy]

Now..i'm pretty slow at finding the posts everyone hiding in ^^

Anyways, my 2 cents...

1: I can see the missunderstanding, and he isnt the first. Wheat he does wrong tho (unlike others that have wondered the same thing) is to come on the forum and ask directly. Thats begging for a flame war. PM/Mail/ingame pm to one of the leaders of this gaming org would have answered your question without stiring up this much shit.

2: K, some of you are over-reacting. While I see how some can be offended by the question, his manner of asking wasnt an attack.
Heck, I had family executed by the nazi's and parts of my family was forced to flee to sweden, and I still didnt find the question personally offencive....just asked in the wrong place
