Ludaei CLONES AGAINST HUMANITY 4	Posted - 2014.04.22 20:53:00 - [1] - Quote "This thread is totally unacceptable, comments related to race will not be tolerated on these forums." Why is this? Is anyone here genuinely offended when they hear the name of a particular sub species of homosapein? i mean we are all very close to each other. it's the differences in environment we grew up in that took form in our ethnic groups over thousands of years due to evolution that we base race on. And I ask, what is so offensive about having a name for the subtypes of humans? Is there anyone on this forum that genuinely has a panic attack or starts crying when I say: AFRICAN ASIAN EUROPIAN NORTH AMERICAN AUSTRALIAN CANADIAN RUSSIAN KOREAN JAPANESE MEXICAN SPANIARD NORD WELSH Would these same people be offended by names like: NEW YORKER TEXAN CALIFORNIAN AUSTINITE. BOY GIRL FOODIE INTROVERT EXTROVERT They are both just groups of words used to classify various groups and if that offends you, i seriously recommend some therapy because you might have deep seated issues. TL:DR Everything is offensive1!!!111!111 Also be careful guys if you respond, a little birdy told me you will get banned if you mention anything regarding race/ethnicity/nationality/anything that describes anyone because it is uber offensive and im having an anxiety attack right now thinking of all the rasict cis white male privilege on these forums.... oh my i need to take a nap in my private bathhouse before i get triggered by all this oppression again.

Tebu Gan Dem Durrty Boyz Dirt Nap Squad. 816	Posted - 2014.04.22 21:29:00 - [8] - Quote Welcome to the internet! But I agree that those very sensitive about race, religions ect ect ect, are rather stupid. Do you even know the number of times I've been called an Indian? I'm not from India, I'm native american. But most importantly to me, I'm human just like everyone else. Call me what you will, you bleed red the same as me. I say to many those who are easily offended, Grow the ** UP you Scrubs. Look to the horizon everyone once and while and know there are things out there far more massive and impressive than yourself, or your culture, or race, or whatever. I personally didn't see much offensive with the post in question. Do people get pissed when the *** census mails you forms to fill out that require you to put your race down? Same ***** Thing, dumbasses. I grew up with plenty of racism, and I know that if I gave it and let it bother me, NOTHING will ever change. All I'd do is let racism live and grow.

If you have a problem with tank and AV balance say so and we'll discuss it. We are not discussing a restaurant menu in a country with different cultures and tastes. Killing in video games is universal. People want to use what is effective with limited loss potential.
Pete B Dogs of War Gaming Zero-Day 143	Posted - 2014.04.22 21:33:00 - [12] - Quote Apart from saying 'subspecies' I agree. People throw hissy fits at ANYTHING nowadays and get offended a bit too easily and by stuff that is genuinely not meant to be offensive. If I say XYZ is black I am using it to distinguish that person from others, just like saying that person has short hair, has a tattoo or what not. although if you are the OP of the thread about Tanking races then yeah... you're being an arse. That thread was basically saying that some races are more likely to use tanks but should only some of them be affected by AV.

Kigurosaka Laaksonen DUST University Ivy League 770	Posted - 2014.04.22 22:35:00 - [39] - Quote My life view is that I should put as much effort into not being offended as I try to not offend others. When it comes down to it, name calling is name calling, pure and simple, and also childish and petty. To be offended by it would make me childish and petty, no matter how vulgar or obscene the name calling. To let someone else dictate my emotional state by choosing to be offended at childish, petty name calling makes me feel cheap, like a tool to be acted on rather than a person to act. That being said, because corporate policies and national laws support us lending ourselves to be adult sized children, IB4L.

Stop trying to justify someone elses bad behavior, or negate the validity of whatever emotion anyone might have (if they have any) towards it, especially in such a petty manner as calling them 'oversensitive'. At no point did I imply that I support hateful or intentionally malicious behavior or speech. I also never implied that in every case the target of such maliciousness is simply being oversensitive. I even added that the world "would be a much better place with less people being offended by, when it comes down to it, the most trivial and petty of things." I freely admitted that not all things are trivial and petty, but that, I feel, a vast majority are. If you feel that I've said the thing you say I have, it's a misinterpretation and misunderstanding on your part.

Some people see this as saying that some races are "beneath" humanity, when in reality, it just means that all races are more of a branch of humanity. We all belong to a subspecies. I think its more of a misunderstanding than anything, and usually, no offence is intended. I tend to think of the human races as separate subspecies in the same way we consider certain birds and fish that are completely identical in every way other than the color of their plumage/scales different subpecies. For all intents and purposes, we are pretty much the same, but scientifically, we are different subspecies due to different skin color, hair color, and slight variations in body shape and size. Its just genetics and the theory of evolution. We were separated long enough to develop into different variations of the same species because So, yes. You can use the word "subspecies" or any other nonoffensive words to describe a race. Any one who does get offended by these things are a bit too sensitive. Saying someone is Caucasian or White isn't offensive, but saying they are a "Cracker" or a "Whitey" is. The same is true of every race. Context and tone matter as well. Even the correct words for these races can become offensive in the right (wrong?) places of if the wrong tone is used. The OP is in fact correct here, and acknowledging that us humans come in different colors shapes and sizes should not be considered offensive, because its true.

This is what i was trying to get across, i just don't have as fancy speech skills as this one here. also, i am not the guy from whom which this thread was spawned from. the thread was asking which country's players tanked the most in everyone's opinion. or something close to that.
