    I know that it means Cancer as in the star sign like Leo but i still find it offensive.

    My Mum has cancer and many other people in my family has died from it so i hate the fact that people are saying:

    "Selling a good Cancer"
    "Buying Cancer"

    I think the item should have a name change.
    Cancer does not deserve to be on earth let alone Wynncraft.
    Please get rid of it.

    Seems like you're overreacting a bit, but maybe they could add a toggle or something?
    ./toggle cancer
    changes the name to chanker or something

    It'll defeat the entire purpose of named items after Horoscope Signs.
    My grandmother is currently dying from cancer in her leg that'll end her life in maybe 2 years at best.
    And I make cancer jokes sometimes.
    Offense is never given, it's always taken, sorry.

    You have my deepest sympathies for your mother, however, I hope she's able to fight back that shitty thing that will happen to most of us when we age.

    Blame the people who discovered a new constellation and were like "wow let's call it cancer"

    Also, yes, you are overreacting. I'm sorry to hear about the state your mother is in, but renaming or deleting the item will defeat the Constellation legendary set of items, just because people are getting offended by a name that we aren't even at fault at.

    maybe you should email NASA and tell them you arent satisfied with the constellations.
    Then it might be changed.

    actually the constellation was named before the disease, they are both named after the animal.
