Hi,
I've just been banned for 1 hour because my name was Gavur, which literally means heretic or infidel in turkish. It is a word with bad connotation(as much as the word heretic. It runs a little deeper in the turkish language in some backward places of turkey) but it certainly isn't an insult(it would really be a laughable one). I would like to keep my username in the chivalry server because I like it. Thank you. |

It was an insult back then but not anymore and it gained the meaning "outlander" later. Nowadays, I don't think it has that much of an offensive meaning(and I think that those who use it as an insult are very conservative people). However, you make the rules and I don't think I can change your view on this so I will change my name for this server.
Thank you. |
