Racism / 9/11 jokes.

My gandfather died in 9/11 after raising me for 13 years of my life. A player named (Pardon my language) "Dickbutt" was making jokes on the aloha.pk tower of babel server. And after I asked him kindly to apologize he refused and continued making fun of me and my religious beliefs. Thank you for your time
also like to add poor community. Being made fun of for my beliefs is not right or fun. I came to play not deal with crap.

Every-game, basically, has these people. You cannot blame B&S for this, and as jdrew said, it's just a troll.

No need for same religeon, it's just a matter of respect. I'm Christian, and I respect the beliefs of Muslims, Bhudists, and Jews.

I'm not saying that everyone who plays online games is a prepubescent who just learned the n-word, but there are inevitably some who are.

I'm sorry this happened, but the others are right. There's always SOMEONE out there who does this garbage just for fun. I'm a christian too and I haven't dealt with this kind of thing, (I'm also home schooled) but still, I hate to see this kind of thing happen. You don't seem like the type, but one thing I would do, is ruin the game for him. I'm sorry, but I get TICKED when someone starts calling me names especially if I don't deserve it. I would probably do things like bury the guy, shoot him myself if possible, destroy his fort and other stuff like that. It sounds suitable to me, but you don't seem like the type of person to do that and I think that's great to be honest. God wants us to forgive our neighbors. Still, I give people lots of chances and at one point something just snaps ya know? (By the way if saying God isn't acceptable in this forum, sorry I didn't know).
EDIT
By the way, I'm sorry for you're grandfather. :(

Saying god is allowed on the forums.
I just dont get it why you made a account just to post this.
Also:
Darien according to your post you have to be 25.
I just cannot believe this.
A 25 years old wouldnt cry about someone making a 9/11 joke in a videogame.
Also I dont think anyone should care about 9/11 anyways and murrica did it themselves to invade other countries for OIL.

That's a pretty funny outcome of using you're/your incorrectly.
Anyway, I can understand that you get upset when people call you names online. I was like that too. But you'll later realize that as long as you just met them online, there is no way for them to insult you of anything personal to you. You'll realize that because of this, it really doesn't matter what they say to you. Just act cool and cocky, and don't try to initiate some kind of swearing competition. That'll just lead to both of you looking like fools.

So, summary of this thread:
- This website has nothing to do with how individual servers are run, never mind how players on those servers act. If you really want to complain about a certain user, go to the forum of that particular server/server group and post it in the relevant section.
- This is the internet - this kind of thing happens. If you don't like it, go elsewhere.
- You're at least 24 years old, based on what you said in your post. By now, you should have learned that you don't get everything you want, and that people will inevitably say things that you don't agree with or take offence at. Get used to it, or go live in a bubble.
