I wish the name Isis would be changed to something else for obvious reasons.
 
Just don't buy them if you feel uncomfortable with the name... There are many other weapons to choose from.
 
It's just a acronym/word. A group of cowardly :censored: do not get exclusivity over it.

It's the question not to MA but to the media, to stop using the name with thousands years of history as abbreviation for the terrorist group, which doesn't even use it for themselves. It already makes life harder for lots of women in the world who happen to bear that name. How will you like if media start using ELLA for something unspeakable? If it was your real name, would you change it because of it?
 
If it bothers you, choose / buy a different weapon.

Mindark claimed the name long before it was hijacked by those with a distorted view of their own religion.

As others have said above, the RL usage of this word in no way reflects the usage of it within Entropia.

This is not the first time this has been raised since the 'world media' started using this acronym in early 2013, and it inevitably leads to discussion of RL controversial issues, which are not permitted on this forum:
