Hello my moderator sirs, the reason behind this article is that I got banned about half an hour ago. First of all I was playing in fort de vaux map and I was roleplaying as a german soldier with a guy called "Kaiser" (nickname not the real kaiser Wilhelm II). And with the pleasure of winning and enjoying the match, I wrote "Reich will rise again to the main chat, however I got banned from the server because of racism that I didnt commit and using 1 german word. So I contacted our well respected moderator "JRMBelgiumTwitch" and after a long conversation to reach an agreement he advised me to write this article.

First of all lets look at the reason why I got banned
* racism

------> As you know nazis declared themselves 3rd reich in ww2, however by saying reich ı didn't mean the 3rd reich. As you probably know Reich means "empire" in german. When I said reich I meant the German Reich which was active 1871 to end of ww1 and I think that saying "Reich will rise again" is not any humiliation or insult to any race of human. And I didnt have any purpose such as offending people when I said it, I was just kinda roleplaying. However some people can find it offensive. I sincerely want to apologize from people who found it offensive and I repeat my phrase didnt have any offensive or racist purpose.


Now I want to talk about 2nd reason
* Languages other than english are not allowed in bf 1 chat
I alwats used english in game chat except for today which was the word "Reich". And I can guarantee you that I wont speak in german and use any words people might offensive even though I didnt had a offensive purpose.

Before submitting this article I want to add a quote that I like
