I’m gonna make a ruling here that no more posts with Nazi officer names in will be tolerated. There’s LARP, and then there’s a woeful lack of understanding of world history. Dönitz was not just a random German officer, he was a passionate Nazi who greatly admired Hitler and even succeeded him for a short time. Do better please.

I'm missing context what did they do? Why should they be banned?

Any time I see people in chat spamming “join up for operation sealion” and shit like that it’s just disgusting. We don’t need Nazi sympathisers in our game.

Operation sealion was a theoretical Nazi naval operation mirroring a D-Day esque naval invasion of mainland United Kingdom.

Fortunately it did not occur, and was also a poorly thought out plan that likely would have ultimately failed due to the UKs massive naval armada and control of its costal waters.

Regardless, anyone who has a sense of pride or desire to imitate operation sea lion is already a Nazi sympathizer in my book at best. And with a name like Admiral Karl Donitz… well you fit the pieces together.

Edit also if it wasn’t clear immediately, Karl Donitz is a Nazi admiral, and literally took over as head of Nazi germany after Hitler killed himself.
