Hi all,

Perhaps it is posted somewhere else, but I could find no explanation as to what this Easter egg chalenge is. Still, one thing is for sure that it is a religious andcultural event and this actually calls for either similr events being held for all the religions and traditions/rituals worldwide or at least in the Elten community, or such a thing not existing in the first place.

Alright, found the thread. It is in an irrelevant forum though.

I agree with this:

Kinda like saying if all peoples of the world aren't represented in this community, then this community shouldn't exist. Utter nonsense.

in your country is also a lot of muslims, some christians atheist, Buddhist and so on.
Do you have state holidays for everyone?
If we had to create something for everyone, we would have to celebrate every day :D
Just have a fun, that's all.

Easter eggs are pagan anyway. Christians don't recognize that as holy. Some churches have events with Easter eggs and the like, but as far as that being a part of the Christian experience, um, no.

Look. This is not a state. States have their systems and foundations going back all the way to liberalism and pre-modernity and Renaissance. You have all those things including the so called reformation and Protestantism, the Peace of Westphalia, the French Revolution and enlightenment and secularism and the colonial and post-colonial eras and two world wars and so on. And now liberalism is a worldwide system but I won't discuss that any further here.
Thing is, this is just an app and if it has its rules forbidding religious and ethnic discrimination, then I don't want these premium features offered as Easter eggs, regardless of whether I wanna get 'em or not.

You couldn't interpret my point worse. I have no problem with your traditions whatsoever, as long as you don't have any problem with those of mine. Problem is, I have heard no liberal say, let us just mind our own business and live in our liberal heaven without interfering in the affairs of whomever we consider against our norms and tenets. So, in fact, it is not me but liberals who intervene in every practice that they consider as a threat and define everyone else as authoritarian and totalitarian. But as I said, this should be the topic of a separate and private discussion. What I am trying to highlight here is that one's beliefs and traditions ought not to allow one to impose them on others with no legitimate excuse and this Easter egg case is just that.

@Enes It's absolutely not that, at least in my opinion. And quite frankly I don't get the point of complaining over something that was intended as just a small funny surprise. The main idea here was not to impose a religion or culture over another, and I'm sure that the developer did not think it that way whatsoever. The point was to motivate us to use the forum and perhaps get involved in other communities, to have a conversation with someone you'd never privately messaged before etc. And this was done on the occasion of Easter holidays. Easter eggs served as a tool only. Do you seriously view this as discrimination?
Don't get me wrong, I do not want to sound harsh or insensible or that sort of thing, I'd just like to get it. I feel like you guys are taking this too seriously while the point was to have fun.

Okay, I get you. I also get that the intention was not a malicious one. What I don't get is your reaction even after my explanation. And if I were to hold an event for Ramadan, I guess I would also hold one for Christmas or other occasions. I think I wouldn't do such a thing in the first place though. You can't do that for thousands of diverse cultural and religious practices and rituals.
I just call on the developer to act more carefully.

I think my reaction is ok, if you see any events you can't say this is discrimination, because here isn't event from my culture.
I don't mind to make events for other cultures and stuff. but even now it doesn't make sense. We can even create something for Jews, but there is maybe 0, 1 or 2 Jews.
If you had your project and there would be 50% people from Turkey would it be discrimination when will you create event only to celebrate your turkish Independence Day?
In my opinion, no.
nd btw easter eggs is rather our tradition, not religion event.

Okay, now that's a good point. If 50%of the people here were to be Turkish, I would've encouraged them to celebrate their independence day in the Turkish community if we had one, but not here. If more than 50%of the people here are Muslims or Christians or Hindus or whatever, this does not make this community obliged to abide by the practices of that religion. Just go make a group accepting the followers of whatever religion you wish, and those interested in it, and that's all. Just like a language community, with the difference that one can choose one's religion as opposed to being born into a society where a language is commonly spoken and taught.
And this English community has a particular status. It has members from all around the world, and the English language is more than enough to be a thing that we all have to accept. So this Easter egg event you may wish to have in the Polish or German community or any other community where it is welcomed as a tradition by an absolute majority, but this should not be the case here.

hmm, why? I should guess there is more than 50% people on english group who accept easter eggs.
But in the future it's a good point, maybe if you create your recommended group you can create event which is important for you. Remember, it's only my reflection, I am not elten administration.

Remember, this event is created because now a lot of elten users are after easter and Elten could be more popular because of this event.

ahh Enes, and what I wrote it sounds good, every group has their own events, but maybe it's impossible to do, because it would be too complicated. Easter eggs on forums is only small part of events.
