Shitstorm someone for making jokes about 9/11? Guess that's what the topic is about, only watched first video and actually had a good laugh.

I think a bit of both. It's both insensitive and you're being over sensitive.

Having watched those videos, I think the jokes should have been omitted simply for courtesies sake because people did die in the real situation. I also noticed that they removed the comments on the video, so they obviously have issues with people shouting about it.

Personally I'd just brand them as arseholes and move on, those are comments I wouldn't make, despite the perceived British way of handling terrorism. That's less of the "stiff upper lip" and more of a complete disregard for peoples feelings.

It has been nearly 7 12 years if my maths is correct and I think people become numb to it being "an issue". I mean it feels surreal that something happened to me three years ago, the only thing that reminds me are the scars, and I suppose as an analogy, this is a bit like someone hitting my leg with a stick, it makes me suddenly remember what happened and I feel a flash of anger towards the person that did it and the one that brought it up.

That's my take anyway.

ya, i think its a courtesy thing, if you are making worldwide videos that everyone watches and are trying to make money, from a business aspect, i dont think you should alienate half the world in the wake of a joke.  I guess reading my post i seem oversensitive, but i myself dont have as much attachment to it as maybe others do, and am more looking at it from a 3rd perspective of, "lets try to be a little more careful with our words for the sake of others". 

with that kind of attitude(general statement, not meant towards anyone), i could simply walk down the streets of Baltimore, heavily populated by a a certain race, just saying the N word, and when commented back, throw it in their face, "bitch that shit happened 150 years ago, get over it".  Sounds funny really lol, but you wouldnt be caught doing it.

Shitstorm someone for making jokes about 9/11? Guess that's what the topic is about, only watched first video and actually had a good laugh.

Ya i chuckled too, and then said, "ya wasnt a very good joke, kind of distasteful really". 

I'm not asking for a shitstorm, im just asking what your opinion is on the matter, and quite clearly you could care less.  Just out of curiosity why do you feel that way? are you going to say, "it was over 10 years ago, get over it"?  Kind of seems like the go to comment for people who cant make thoughtful comments.

So just as of recently the Yogscast crew, Simon in particular made his 3rd joke towards the 9/11 events.  I immediately thought, "wow, that wasn't very funny, actually quite offensive really".   I'd like to just hear your opinions on the matter.

You remind me of certain asian-american 17 year old kid who on different, yet very similar forum to this one, asked why the world hates on America. Of course, everyone ignored his question and mind you, it was 99% NA community (mostly players from USA).

It's black humour, just like those jokes with jew babies and chocolate chip cookies. No one cares.

You can't be serious.

Also if you are not being able to cope with it and go on with your lives, the terrorists won, to put it in american terms. In the case of 9/11 the terrorists won so much you can't even board on a plane without a background check on your grandparents. 2001 was more than 12 years ago, the honeymoon period is well over. If anything it's the mourning of pre-9/11 society that we should do. There's nothing to remember except how a small organisation could make the US go batshit crazy and forget about itself being the land of the free.

There is no need for courtesy, It happened 12 years ago there are people dying  everyday. Many because the USA wanted oil. Plus it was what 3-4 jokes if not less. Get over it
I wanted an avatar as cool as the Nords ones, but I have no skill with Photoshop, or Illustrator or anything like that >:(

It has been nearly 7 years if my maths is correct and I think people become numb to it being "an issue".

The September 11 attacks (also referred to as September 11, September 11th, or 9/11[nb 1]) were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks launched by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda upon the United States in New York City and the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area on Tuesday, September 11, 2001.

Yeah, I may have accidentally used 2006, the year the memorial was constructed as the basis for that maths.  :oops: Thanks google. I literally typed in "9/11 year" and the first thing that popped up was a year, I stupidly assumed it was what I searched for, not the memorial construction date.

https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=9/11+year&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&gws_rd=cr&ei=lzhoUrXmE4W-0QWx5oGYCQ

My apologies.

If my memory serves me, the London Bus bombing was 2005.

Although I think that the fact that I don't know the year of 9/11 really means that it hasn't had an effected on me.

Nonetheless, 11 (nearing 12) years is half of my life span... I went to Disney World that same year (I think we were out there around the 22nd) and I have to admit my parents always got asked "You're not scared to fly after what just happened?" to which they replied "Security has never been better, besides why let them win?".

Apology not accepted. It's not about me being an asshole this time, but I'm against "common courtesy" of saying sorry if there is nothing to be sorry about. In my own (not so humble) opinion, people should apology to each other only if they make something really stupid that has negative effects on them, their surroundings or the community as a whole. Saying sorry because you said something that's entirely right is silly and people do that every day because in the past they got canned because of it. Guess what, it's year 2013. We don't rely on our brains to memorize stuff anymore. We have hard drives for that :wink:

I wasn't right... I got the date wrong and provided misinformation, therefore I am well within my rights to apologise for my act of deception.

Protip: Noone really cares. Noone really cared even in the beginning.
Crying about 9/11 is something douchebags, polticians and patriots do, to either start a conflict or to gain votes.
