When you grow up you might come to understand that not all the people of the world are the same as you.Some people dont like it so why bring it into the game and breed hate?

Because I am 100% right and this upsets you, you resort to flaming me in a desperate attempt to avoid my arguments as you know I got you cornered. Who is the idiot here?

Oh and Series, they can say it all they want because they got to make up their own definition for it. However we cannot, because we're white.
Alright Chuck Norris...that tells me all i need to know about you. I'm blonde, blue-eyed and white as white can be but I'm still offended.

And right back at ya re: flamebait.

Holy freaking hell, are you serious? Are you doing this for the attention or just to piss us off, or both? Or do you seriously and honestly believe the stuff you're saying?

By your logic, since some people listen to music with offensive lyrics, it's no big deal if people use those same terms and language in online mmo's with a 12+ age rating?

If "n*gger" and "idiot" were equally as offensive, how come you hear npc's say "idiot" during the cutscenes but never n*gger or jew?

And your argument is what...if i'm neither Jewish nor black, i'm not offended and think it's hilarious to insult others, then no-one else should be insulted either? Hmmm....ok....solid logic there.

Let me know when you manage to string together a coherent argument.

How about instead of taking a bastardized version of what I said so you could make a little straw-man argument, you reply to what I actually said?

Oh right, you can't.

Well then you are offended by silly things and words that mean nothing in the end.

The word idiot is more offensive than the "n-word" to me. If someone called me the "n-word", I'd laugh. If someone called me "idiot", my feelings would be hurt. It's in the "eye of the beholder".

If someone uses the N-word be they black or pink, my respect for them drops to zero.

No, you didn't. You were questioning why the word was offensive because people listen to rap music. Read your freaking post.

I can't believe I'm sitting here defending why it's offensive. I'm gonna leave you to jacking off to all the attention you're getting, since that's the only conclusion I can come to as to why you're even arguing why using these terms are justifiable in an online game.

It's funny, kind of. Reminds you that there's no way you're the dumbest motherf***er in GW.

Of course if someone uses the "C-word" or "W-word" be they white or pink, your respect for them is unchanged.

I realized I misunderstood what you were saying in your post. Read the other post I made and delete this one as it no longer applies.

You make a very good point. In all understanding of this issue, you must fight this sort of this with education. Teach people to except others no matter who or what they stand for or believe, because in the end we are all human.

Unfortionally thanks to world leaders and Presidents like G.W. Bush, that will never happen, not even in our life time.

The message currentlly is, destroy those who the "Rich" feel are a threat to their security by labling them as terrorists, by any means nessassary. Lower the standards for all poor and lower class people, and except the poor criminals who violate our laws, because prisons are not deversified, and immigrants deserve a fair shot at freedom, even know all the money they make is sent back to Mexico, so the Mexican economy thrives.

Sorry for the political meesage, IMO

Not to mention its the internet. If people such as the people in the OP situation, then they should just leave.

Typical hippie crap... so if someone believes in rape, we should accept them? If someone stands for terrorism, we should accept them? In an idealistic world where everything was peace love and happiness, this would be perfect. It's not an idealistic world and it is impossible for it to ever be, unless something like 1984 happens but I hardly call that idealistic.

I wasn't talking about Caucasian and white. Do you even live in the real world?
