Eckz, I dont think i've literally every spoken to you (except when you told me "lol, i can't stop trying" and i say "I know it's impossible" to when i said try to say batch without sounding like a preppy girl or something) So how could you ever POSSIBLY say that I wouldn't stick up for my friend if some random dude started yelling at my friend :roll:

ANOTHER example:

We used to joke with red alot. He used to laugh, then he found it tiresome, asked us nicely to stop, so we did. No big fight about it. Point being, if you find they find it so ******* disconcerting, friends would ask you to stop.

Eckz, the way I see it, it's NOT racist to joke with friends. It's the way it works now. I say something "racist" they say I'm fat or my hairs messed up, you laugh, no ones offended. And I DO agree with sin on the fact that racism will be around forever. I never said that it was good or right. The faster you realize, though, that it will be around forever, the faster you can move on from getting puffed up and indignant when someone tries to joke around with you. And if you really do get pissed at that, ask them to stop. Go ahead thinking ID is racist by the way..I doubt half of us give a **** what some people on the internet say, whether they're right or wrong. Although you ARE wrong. =/ But I suppose you have your own opinion on if jokes are racism or not and that's cool.

I'm not saying that racism definately will be around forever because, let's be honest, no one can say whether thats right or wrong. (unless your a time traveler :o ) I just think if you DO think that we will get over racism, you have alot more hope for humanity than I do lol.

Anyways I've said what I wanted to say, have fun guys <3

I find it depressing that so often these discussions on these forums get marooned from somewhat rational view points into wars being fought over clan and clique boundary lines regardless of the poster's actual view point.

It has been an interesting topic until, roughly, the last four pages.

Sin, You're one of the few here with hypocritical views, so if you were trying to imply that I somehow fit into that category then let me be the first to say that I'm not.

Maybe you don't realize this, but most of your posts have conflicting views. I don't even need to point it out, because it would be a waste of time.

Force, I'm not listening to Liz. I read your post and got out of it exactly what she posted..

Boxed, whatever betch.. racism isn't a joke. I don't take it as a joke. Racist comments shouldn't be a joke.

When you said "Black people" "are" "******" in the same sentence, you stereotyped them as a whole. And when you say 'many' referring to a 'race of people', you are noting Hundreds of Millions of people. Hence, you or nobody else has the kind of intel needed for a stable basis to that kind of conjecture.

Sin: You keep avoiding the topic of discussion and make all of your comments about liz. No one cares what she said in the past and no one is going to freak out on her about it. She admitted she was wrong that is the point.

lol X, you use to have pics up on our forums, you look like you sat out in the sun an hour too long.

IF YOU DIDN"T READ ANY OF MY POSTS PLEASE READ THIS ONE, I HOPE IT HELPS CLEAR SOME THINGS UP.Maybe I didn't make my point come across clearly. I'm not saying racism is ok. I'm not racist, I do not judge anyone based on color of skin, religion, their beliefs or customs. I base my opinion soley on the persons attitude. I do not condon the use of calling others the N word or anything of the sort. I don't believe in harassing others for anything, including race and color of skin. As far as the joking goes of course I wouldn't condon picking on people for race even if it's a joke IF it's not acceptable by that person.

In this I mean if you are in a group of friends and are telling jokes, it shouldn't be a big deal. I doubt any of you can say you havn't told some joke that was racist or picking on others for SOMETHING. We have all kinds of people of different races, color, religion and beliefs in ID. We all tell jokes to eachother. If anything is said that another person finds offenseve they are told to let us know immidiately so that action can be taken against the offender.

You all are so quick to judge a person, it's so redicilous. Have I EVER been racist to any of you? Have any of you seen me running around being racist to everyone? Yes there have been examples of say with me and Taz. Taz knows i've never called him a ******. I have said racial comments to Taz in the past but Taz and I have known eachother for years and have always joked around. I've asked Taz in the past and talked with him tonight on vent and asked him if anything I have said has really hurt his feelings. He said yes, I peirced his heart with sadness or something to that affect and then busted out laughing.

Many of you are acting like i'm some horrible person for my opinion....Maybe I put out my point wrong or maybe some of you are just not understanding me.
Please do not sit here and call me a racist as I am personally taking a big offense to it. I am not a racist and i've said it a million times. Why must people posting on a topic about racism and peoples feelings constantly harass a person who is just trying to put out there opinion.

My opinion is because it's what I think is best, not because i'm a racist or an asshole. I honestly think if people just tried to ignore some of the racism it would help not make it so bad, or hurt so much. I think the more you complain about racism especially to someone who is racist the worst it will make it.

I really am just trying to say what I think would be a good solution, all everyone seems to want to do is attack me, my char, and ID. Half of you don't even know me. I have a few enemies, mostly the ones that visit and post on these forums regularly. I mostly get a long very well with EVERYONE else in the game. If you think i'm such a jerk, then come play with me sometime in tron, I usually play in G5 fortress or ID Arenaa. I think you'll find i'm actually a pretty nice and fun guy to play with.

@Liz, you came on vent tonight and had a talk with me (which I have recorded) and I understand your point of view a lot better. I'm hoping even though I know you don't agree with my point of view that you can at least understand it a bit more and realise it's not a horrible point of view like many of you is making it out to be.
The truth is out there.

Since everyone is supposively not a racist here, why is there such a heated discussion? Fix it in the real world, not here.

I call a person "monkey" when it behaves like one....

i think this radical anti-racism has an obnoxious side though, for example here.
