I knew some issue like this would start about minecraft being violent. But I wasn't expecting it to start like this. I agree about mojangs post that talks about how minecraft is a kids game. People near where I live play minecraft and go to my school and they don't do vilent things to hurt or bully someone. Again mojang was right this is a childrens game! Plus its not like the game has like real life animations it looks just like a game. The only real violence in minecraft is that you can hurt players and animals. Yes maybe minecraft has diamond swords and tools you can use to kill but these are tools that were mostly used back in old times. Minecraft doesn't have guns inless you have mods installed so why is it a real threat to violence? I think Turkey should just calm down about this. Also doesn't Turkey know that minecraft is not the only violent game? Theres games like COD And Also Guns and other violent things in games. Don't just ban minecraft when it has half of the bad things that other video games have in them. This is basicily all I need to say.

Well the excuse Turkey is putting forward for this is definitely a load, but it's not surprising given how the government is becoming more like a dictatorship as time goes on.
Now looking at many posts here comparing Minecraft to other games such as Cod and GTA, here's the reason why Minecraft is being targeted. When we play Minecraft, we can literally do anything we want. We can express our tastes, desires, artwork, fantasies and style in literally an infinite number of ways. In other words, Minecraft is not simply a game,Minecraft represents an idea.
All the signs are there. The government is becoming more like a dictatorship and attempting to censor those that disagree or think differently. They did after all ban Twitter, and if I recall they even at one point sought to ban Youtube.
The last thing dictators and authoritative governments want is the spread of new ideas and for its citizens to think. When people can think, the government cannot tell them what they should be thinking and they therefore loose control of the population and a revolution occurs. That means a game like Minecraft has to be eliminated.
While it may sound ridiculous, you would be surprised how nuts and paranoid some authoritative leaders can be about these things."
This is a comment from the newspost, and it seems like a pretty reasonable explanation to why it was actually banned.
On another note, Rougedano deserves a medal for that post.
Exactly, Minecraft allows a freedom that "should not" be allowed.
I guess the government has nothing better to do than BAN CHILDRENS GAMES!

No minecraft should not be banned, there are those violent games were theres blood and war. then there is minecraft with pixelated skeletons blinking red.
minecraft should not be banned i mean sure you can download mods for guns but if you think mc with guns is violent then just uninstallit and also if turkey wnats to bann mc for being "violent" instead of call of duty and other games like those then it has got a problem ( just my opinion)
It's really strange how you can consider minecraft "violent". Although parents at first sight might consider this game not violent, minecraft multiplayer is kind of violent. With people getting banned from servers for griefing, swearing, and modifications that make the game unfair, you really have you ask yourself how friendly some people are at the game. But there's also people who help stop that, which is I think the majority of minecraft players and "moderators,admins, ect". So considering that, unless your one of those people in those servers for people with free minecraft, unless you play minecraft way to much, you aren't really going to see anyone being that rude. So minecraft I guess is pretty friendly, although watch out for those people who ruin it on a server that does not allow griefing and raiding (aka not factions).
This is stupid! Why turkey should ban Minecraft just because its "violent". ITS NOT VIOLENT! You can turn it into peaceful you Turkish government Noobs. Also why not banning other more violent games like GTA or Call of Duty?

Agreed, this reminds me of when Thailand banned the game Tropico 5 because they were scared of the game's idea.

Play Minecraft for free at minecraftforfreex.com. No download required; just play Minecraft from your browser!
The game itself is not violent, it's some of the people playing the game. And very rarely do I see people actually being "violent" on minecraft. If this DOES concern you, there are family friendly servers. Singleplayer is another option too.
Minecraft a violent game? I play Minecraft and I'm not violent. I'd like to meet whoever thinks Minecraft is violent and punch 'em right in the kisser.
I think that the Turks are a little too sensitive. Imagine it went like this:
Turkey's Leader: We need to get rid of violence in our country. Let's start with Minecraft!
Assistant: Alright, but what else? What about Call of Duty or Mortal Kombat?
Turkey's Leader: Nah! That's nothing! We are known throughout history for destroying things and causing mayhem! This is nothing! That reminds me of when we destroyed all those countries, or when we slaughtered 1.5 millions Armenians in 1915!
But in all seriousness, this is a silly thing to do. ._.

EXACTLY. Plus, there is a thing called "Peaceful". After that, look at this.
Carrots, apples, potatoes, pumpkin pie, melons and all the other crops. Do they require violence? Or punching and replanting crops is violence? That is stupid.
First they should ban GTA, CoD and Battlefield. Then focuse to Minecraft.
I agree dude
What the hell is happening with turkey
First they have banned Youtube then they are thinking of banning MC (they can't anf they do they will only ban the website not the entire game)
and what they left then? FaceBook ?

Since this game is marketed to humans, I doubt we have to worry about turkeys not being able to play.
