Scourge of War Boards

Sorry fellas for the Political comment. Just pissed at the stupidity level of my country. I as well will boycott all apple products. I do apologize for bringing the political crap to the forums.

If I may reiterate, my post from Norb's original:

Thank goodness we didn't spend a year to port over SOW to the Mac format...this would have been disastrous.

Only in that you would not be able to sell the game on Apple's "App Store" - no great loss in my opinion. You could still sell a Mac version via your own web store, matrix, slitherine, steam, whatever.

Apple have displayed similar behavior to this ban in the past, WW2 wargames have been rejected from the app store because they depict the germans - thereby promoting race hatred in some form of twisted logic.

So I wonder if Apple have removed any civil war history ebooks from their book store which have the confederate flag illustrated anywhere?

In Apple's politically correct alternate universe if we all cover our eyes, erase historic symbols from previous conflicts, plug our ears and shout "la la la" there will be no more wars. Then we can all sit down and sing Kumbaya warmed by the glow of our iDevices.

No problem man, I'm on your side, don't apologize to anyone. This stuff is infuriating and insane. This country is headed to dark dark places.

It appears that this mob mentality is moving to other areas, now there is even discussion about taking down the Jefferson Memorial. I wouldn't doubt the Washington Monument or places named after Jefferson and Washington are next.

This is beyond insane! One of the reason's I own an iphone/ ipad is to play Civil War games and now that is ruined. I don't blame NSD or any other dev's for not wanting to write sanitized games for Apple. Welcome to Amerika!

IIRC the woman who created the American flag owned slaves. And the US flag has presided over all kinds of "politically incorrect" moments in history...better remove it! Also, better remove all Confederate monuments on battlefields!

They are already striking on college campuses: http://www.businessinsider.com/confeder ... tin-2015-6

What a lot of @ Political correctness gone crazy. I am proud of the link Northern Ireland/Ulster has to the Confederacy its leaders and troops ,one of the reasons my Tag is Jubal Early is because his roots were in Ulster also Stonewall Jackson and Jeb Stuart among others.

I actually have a Confederate flag perhaps I will be raided by the police :S The South was invaded by the North people seem to forget that, flying the flag does not mean you are a member of the KKK. Don't give in to the tide of Liberalism that's sweeping the western world fly the flag with pride.

Might one of the admins please move this thread to the off-topic area? Its an important debate and its good that different views are made known but it doesn't belong in this section of the forum.

As the creator of this thread, I have no objections to it being moved to the "off topic" area.
(Not that my approval is required or anything....Just saying that it's fine by me)
