- 1488 is a clear neo-nazi code and very popular for identification as such. it is a combiantions of the racist ku klux klan slogan "14 words" (just google it) and the number-code 88 which stands for "heil hitler".

something i want to add

dear community, dear gm´s, dear ht´s (if you ever drop by again),


in the last few weeks i had contact with a lot of people and i do want to tell you a few things.

first of all: thanks a lot for your statements and your support. no matter if supporting me directly in ht or supporting the topic by publishing the link of this blog on your teamsite - btw: those are getting more and more and each time more people drop by and i might say the snowball-system works.

but now up to something else. as i´m quite pissed off by the reaction or non-reaction of some guys and the unreflected treatment system of ht i decided to not report teams anymore but to show `em here on a "wall of shame" (as one user named this blog). but then again i do know that in ht you can´t count on the community because as experience shows some teams play for years with such names. so i decided to check all of those guys here once again. many of them were already reported by users who dropped by here or by others. but a bunch of them were not. so for the last time i did this again in a 12h-action until 4 in the morning.
at the moment it´s all up to one gm taking care of about 80 reports. as he told me he wanted it this way - what a self-destructive guy - and i want to say "thanks a lot for doing this" (you know who you are ;)).
this leads to tell you all that the treatment of the reports by gm´s is quite good or very good. there are only few cases in the past and at the moment where the guidelines (ht policy) fail. that does not mean the report is not legitimate. in the past i have to say there where even some cases where the work of the gm´s was wack - but those were maybe 3-5 cases out of several hundreds. so you see the the work of the gm´s is good and without the help of them the situation wouldn´t be that good. and even if there might be a problem with a report: a link or further information will sweep away doubts in most cases.

then again there is another thing. in a 2-3 cases there are users by whom it is proofed that they do use terms, names or codes which are on the blacklist but have nothing to do with neo-nazism, racsim or fascism. maybe this brings us to a point where the whole policy should be rethought once again. maybe in some/many cases names should be removed by the gm´s with a given reason for the user. at least this has two strong effects:
1.
it´ll protect those users who don´t have anything to do with such things. if they keep the name this will lead to missinterpretations all the time the team plays. there is a very popular case in south-america where a user is attacked in his gb but didn´t knew about what those guys were talking.
2.
with such a policy quite many teams could be treated where with the status quo nobody would take actions. i know this is very... let´s say debatable but on the other hand i do have about 120 screenshots of teams which are under suspicion but with the actual guidelines will keep playing for ever.

one last but very important point! i wrote in the introduction that the registration control is crap. what do i mean by saying this? it does not mean that i want to critizise the work of the gm´s!
as you can imagine coming from some country of south-america or somewhere else the knowledge of neo-nazism (no, it´s not a german problem as you see) and historical terms and names is not given. i don´t want to blame any of the gm´s for that to get this straight. it just leads to the conclusion that a tool is needed for the gm´s to give them a helping hand so that they do know what they decide with the registration control. or to overwork the guidelines. unfortunately the gm´s have no control - and this really is a shame - after the registration. what does that mean? well, stadium-name, ya-name and ya-stadium-name are beyond the control of anybody. not to talk of renaming the team and the alias. and as you can´t search for the ya-names this is were the muppets can do what they want.
so in the long run a tool is absolutely essential. in the short run the guidelines must be overworked.

if you are d´accord with what i do here please spread this topic a bit. with more users being aware the fewer muppet-teams we have.

and please leave a comment if you want to say something to one of the points. this may be of great help believe me.

regards

- führerbunker: headquarter of hitler during wwII.

#192

- schutzstaffel: was a paramilitary organisation which in the beginning was responsible for the security of hitler and then later played a key role in the holocaust. the ss was forbidden after wwII a criminal orgaisation.

again: this is really stupid. it´s been only a few days since there was another team with the same name reported. the name was changes and just two or three days later there is a new one. this is really a good system i think: there is work all the time - but unfortunately the gm´s are all volunteers and i guess they don´t have fun to do the same work day in day out.

#191

- h8-machine: neo-nazi band
- treblinka: concentration camp
- other code: "18" stands for adolf hitler.

#190

- hitler: no comment!

#189

- hitler: no comment!

#188

- auschwitz would normally don´t cause a comment. but in this case i´d like to quote that the user is from poland what could be a sign that he uses the name auschwitz because he comes from this corner/region. but in polish the city is called oswiecim. auschwitz is the name the nazis gave the concentration camp. i know there excists one historical term "auschwitz" but it is from the time from about the 15. century. so i guess he didn´t mean this.

#187

- it´s not written correctly but anyone knows what is meant. it´s a very actual discussion among german historians that the wehrmacht is responsible for many warcrimes and did not fight a "clean" war how it is often said by members.

#186

- auschwitz: no comment!
- and (auschwitz-) birkenau as name for the academy-team!

#185

- gestapo: criminal organisation which is responsible for the holocaust and other crimes such as murder etc.
- the fuhrer is only the fuhrer and not the führer because this guy is too stupid to go and copy/paste the umlaut.

#184

- 1488 is a clear neo-nazi code and very popular for identification as such. unfortunately in ht this is blanked out because of a stupid "number-policy".

#183

- arios (aryan) from spain (or catalunya) linked to "88" and "ss" is very clear. so "ss" is not meant in the italian way.

finland

while there were less than 5 visitors from finland on this blog for several weeks this has suddenly changed!
obviously one guy found his team on the blog via google and since then nothing is as it was before. day in day out there are visitors from finland showing up. if there is something about the blog that makes it so special just leave a comment or tell me in hattrick via guestbook or ht-mail. if some of you show up to report the teams: well done! yes, for most of them it´s just a matter of time.

#182

- no doubts in this case! i don´t know where the flag comes from but the fanclub is disgusting. "members" of his fanclub are among others the schutzstaffel (ss) and the hitler youth (hj). in some of the pa´s he names himself "führer" and writes "third reich"-terms and slogans.

well this once again a good example of how things are going wrong. the controlling has to be done by the users but there are no good tools to do so - obviously it´s more or less acceptable to have such muppets in the game. there is no way for any user to check out fanclubs and youth-academies. and again the system failed: this guy played against more than 30 teams (league- and friendly-matches) and wrote several pa´s in which he called himself "führer" - but nothing happened. in the beginning (meaning when i started having a close look at this topic) it was even worse. there were teams playing for years. well, without a clear "public" statement this won´t change in the future.

#181

- as i told several times before: 1488 is a clear neo-nazi-code. i have no understanding why this is not accepted. there is no other meaning of this code. and it´s really unbelievable that so many guys should use this code if it has no meaning. - or does anybody believe this is a phone number, the price of his new tv or his keynumber for the bankaccount? i guess not.

#180

- no comment!

#179

- i guess no comment is necessary. we all what kind of mentality di canio has.

#178

- some might say this case is worth a discussion. but as member of this party are well-known for their rascist statements the names and the logo should be removed.

#177

- the "odalrune" you can see under the logo is a clear neo-nazi symbol. in germany it is even criminal to show it - so this could cause legal measures against the user.

#176

- sometimes i wonder if people don´t know what they are using for their logo - sure it doesn´t make it any better. so i thought that maybe if you make a google-research on pictures by using the the german word "totenkopf" or the english term "skull" you maybe see among the first hits this skull which is the sign of the neo-nazi paramilitary terroristic organisation "combat 18" which is based on the logo of the nazi-germany "ss division totenkopf". so i just had a quick look at google! and the result is that you don´t find a useable picture of the "cobat 18"-skull on the first 20 pages (!!!) - no matter if you search for "skull" or "totenkopf". and then i tried to find the logo by searching for the terms "combat 18" and "ss totenkopf" - the result is that you then have the logo right there in several versions. so this might not be a real proof but anyone can make up his might on this fact.

#175

- here the logo of the paramilitary terroristic group "combat18" is used. this logo refers or is based on the logo of the "ss division totenkopf". fanclub name and sticker are linked to a hooligan film (bbc documentary afaik) called "the chelsea headhunters". a fangroup of chelsea fc among which racism was widespread. the group had clear links to white supremacist organisations such as "combat 18", the "national front" and the even the "ku klux klan".

#174

- picture of a chelsea-dad doing the hitler-salute. it´s disgusting and hopefully this son does know it better when he is an adult is is spitting his father right in the face.
the fanclub refers to a hooligan film (bbc documentary afaik) called "the chelsea headhunters". a fangroup of chelsea fc among which racism was widespread. the group had clear links to white supremacist organisations such as "combat 18", the "national front" and the even the "ku klux klan".
with a special salute from "the specials" and their song "racist friend": if you have a racist friend now it´s the time now it´s the time for your friendship to end, be it your father, be it your mother...!

#173

- originally this picture comes from somewhere else in the internet with more text. the slogan you can read here comes from a anti-bush-campaign. but as this user cut off of the text of the original campaign and just left the slogan what is left is really discrimatory and should not be accepted by ht.

#172

- kids doing the hitler-salute! well, i guess nobody wants to see that in an global-online game. for some reason i had contact with this guy - what i normally avoid - and told him it´s a shame. as answer of my first ht-mail he said it had nothing to do with hitler because it´s all in the portugese colours. i then told him that there are fascists in portugal too, and that the kids are still doing the hitler-salute - so it not necessarily must have a link to hitler but to fascism. no reaction from his side. i know that the logo was reported minimum three times.

#171

- in this case it is obvious that the "ss" is not used in the "italian way". the fanclub includes "acab" (all cops are bastards) a very popular slogan among neo-nazis.

- in the small picture you can see the neo-nazi sign "wolfsangel" which is forbidden when shown with certain other aspects.

- 24.11.07: a few days ago the user changed his logo. the actual one is the logo of the neo-nazi band "screwdriver".

#170

- clansman: supporter of the ku klux klan. originally it is written with a "k"! this is a not so easy case because the spelling with a "c" refers to two different things. there are scottish clansmen but there is a book, too with the titel "the clansman". the movie "the birth of a nation" is based on this book and is seen as the rebirth of the ku klux klan. as this user has a clear link to the "white supremacy ideology" of the kkk the names should be removed.

#169

- ku klux klan: racist organisation.

#168

- obersalzberg: a mountainside in bavaria which is very well-know because adolf hitler and a few other nazis had a residence there
- leibstandarte: refers to ss-leibstandarte adolf hitler the personal bodyguard regiment of hitler. the division was involved in the invasion of poalnd and the operation barbarossa.

#167

- rahowa: racial holy war. this is term is very popular among neo-nazis. with the term in mind it´s quite clear what the "88" in the alias stands for.

#166

- on the away-jerseys of this this team you can see the "odalrune". it is a clear neo-nazi symbol. in austria, too. in germany it is even criminal to show it.

#165

- rudolf hess: hitlers deputy and antisemit.

#164

- auschwitz: no comment!

#163

- drittes reich refers to germany during the period 1933 to 1945, when adolf hitler and the nsdap "governed" the country with the "concept" of lebensraum, aryan, racial purity and anti-semitism.

#162

- drittes reich refers to germany during the period 1933 to 1945, when adolf hitler and the nsdap "governed" the country with the "concept" of lebensraum, aryan, racial purity and anti-semitism.

#161

- another case of "the whole picture counts"! sure nobody could do something just because of the team- or the stadium-name. but linked to each other it is quite clear that "adolfito" in the teamname refers to hitler.

#160

- the fanclub "combat 18" and "blood & honour" are both names of neo-nazi organisations which are for example forbidden in germany. "blood & honour" is a neo-nazi network with the aim of transportic national socialist "views" into the skinhead scene and society. "combat 18" is like a paramilitary and terroristic organisation which arised out of "blood & honour". the team- and stadium-name are linked to a hooligan film (bbc documentary afaik) called "the chelsea headhunters". a fangroup of chelsea fc among which racism was widespread. the group had clear links to white supremacist organisations such as "combat 18", the "national front" and the even the "ku klux klan".

#159

- there hasn´t been many antisemitic teams as far as i know from my experience. but this one is a real evil case - just unbelievable. even more sad is that the logo has been voted by over 80 user without a reaction. it just shows once again that there has to be something done by the ht´s themselves. i know you´ll never prevent evil logos but with more people be aware of the problem maybe a guy like this can not play ht for almost 2 years.

#158

- schutzstaffel (ss): was a paramilitary organisation which in the beginning was responsible for the security of hitler and then later played a key role in the holocaust. the ss was forbidden after wwII a criminal orgaisation.

#157

- this guy is using the sign of the ss-totenkopfverbände in his logo, which was a criminal organisation during the third reich. the totenkopfverbände played a key role in the holocaust and guarded the concetration camps. as it is written here it is used as name of a neo-nazi band, too.

#156

- kategorie c: hooligan band with support for the neo-nazi-scene and the landser (neo-nazi-band) singer michael "lunikoff" regener

#154

- this user has the sign of the white power "movement" in his logo, a racist movement or organisation.

#153

- to name the stadium "gas chamber" is absolutely sick and shows that this user has no sense of history.

#152

- white power: a racist movement or organisation.

#151

- white power: a racist movement or organisation.

#150

- white power: a racist movement or organisation.

#148

- auschwitz: no comment.

#147

- göring: was tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity at nuremberg trials.

#146

- himmler: was commander of the schutzstaffel (ss) and the secret police gestapo. he can be seen as the founder of the "vernichtungslager" - the concentration camps.
