    so, if i put this in -

     

    Swastika on a house in India

     

    It would be all good, right?

     

    But, this would clearly be a no.

    Do you actually think if most people looked @ the top one, wouldnt think about the bottom one?

    To be fair, as Asianman said, any religious symbol can be deemed as offensive to others, and if I were you I would definitely avoid anything that resembles a Nazi Swastika because the reports will come thick and fast.

     

    Out of interest though, why would you want to have a symbol that is or could be offensive to others?

    Ok, I will put this in my pic,

     

    Swastika on a house in India

     

    and we'll see how much hate I get, and I will probably get a ban as well.

    Why take the chance?

    I thought in BO1, there was an option to hide all emblems?  Or did this restrict viewing of emblems in the lobby only and not when someone killed you?

    Well, this is where it get kind of complicated, if I was just to make a "normal" symbol that I dont find offensive at all, how do I know that someone out there would find it offensive?

     

    Offence/Offensive, is open to interpretation.

     

    Also, if anyone finds a religious symbol offensive, they really do need to grow up.

     

    Im not religious in any way shape or form.

    Just to show you that the religious symbol will be forever connected to the Nazi one, especially in the West, due to people not knowing the different between the two.

     

    I havent myself seen anyone with a Nazi Swastika, not saying there not there, its just that I havent seem one...yet.

    Because people other than you find it offensive. Simple as that.

    Which is basically you admitting to being contrary, and provocative?

     

    And to say that people taking offence to a religious symbol is immature is silly in itself. You never herard of a religious war or conflict?

     

    At this point I'm starting to think you are trolling.
