I wouldn't call it sick, it's a harmless bit of fun, not that I can see the entertainment value of clicking endlessly to glass one measly virtual planet.

I fundamentally disagree.. genocide is not something you should even make a joke out of. Think about the past cases of genocide (or attempted genocide) that have occurred... think of the consequences and the human fallout.

This is simply not suitable material to make a joke out of and personally, I would suggest the creators of this website grow up.

Oh, lighten up, people.

It's a website.

A game.

That's all it is. Yes, REAL genocide is a horrible, evil, deplorable thing.

But this website laughs in the fac eof that evil -- and well it should! That which we cannot or will not laugh at ... we give power to.

Pax, I dont find the fact that this is a GAME to really be any defence...

Would you find a "game" about, let's say, rape or child pornography acceptable?

By your argument, the fact that it is a game makes it appropriate irrespective of the subject matter.

How can this be right and/or acceptable?
