Complaints about making fun of Jewish experience has no parallels to Christian fundamentalist attempts to sensor HP due to its celebration of and play with witchcraft--drop this comparison now.

I've been seeing ads for this community come up on my flist every few days and every time I'd cringe, but didn't think to speak out until I saw other people speaking out this morning. It's time for you to stop making me cringe and others despair if you're serious about not wanting to offend and hurt people. You are offending and hurting people. JK Rowling knew how to handle the parallel's she was drawing with the Holocaust without drawing offense--part of how she did that is by not appropriating the very terms of that experience.

If you wish to correct your mistake, take the token you are being offered and change this community's name-because that name has serious meaning for many of us. Then work how you are referencing real events that hurt real people who are still living today into the thinking behind your role play writing, Good role play is interactive storytelling--don't take this subject lightly if you're going to write about it.

And for those of us who aren't writing in your game but see this game's title come up in our rpg promo communities, please respect our feelings, and change the name to something less painful for us.
