LOL @ this OP
Dude. If you want to be a PFC spoiler just man up and be a PFC spoiler. You want to invade or combat noob training corps just invade or combat noob training corps. No need to try to build political consensus backing by playing a racism card against "prominent corps".
Man Up. Say you're out to be a spoiler. And thats it.
Is there racism on the internet/online gaming? Of course there is. There's people and all their petty bs with it, racism included. Is this community more or less prone to any of it? I strongly doubt that not because I don't see it (I do, often) but because behaviour like that is statistical outlier behaviour in general relative to all the rest of the interactions that occur between the players of this game. 5 people being racists in a corp of 50 does not make a corp racist. 100% of a group would, but even then thats 1 corp out of how many here?
Additionally, while you obviously attempt yet another bs "gambit" at creating support by tapping peoples empathy you blatatly ignore the fact that in designing the game CCP has empowered you, me and everyone else to deal with ANY problem interaction directly: You have a MUTE button for anyone who says things you don't like. You have a BLOCK option for anyone who sends you things you don't like. And you have a REPORT option for anyone who persists in continuing abusive behavior. CCP has a well established history of punishing those reported individuals whose behavior is out of line.
So, again. No need to try stirring up the support pot for your desire to prey on weak corps in the proposed PFC setting. Just do it if that's what you're about. This omgracists thing tho is a crock. OMGRACISTS!! OMGNATIONALISTS!!! OMGCONSOLE/PCISTS!!! OMGPIE!!!!!!!!!OMGCAKE!!!!!!!!!!!OMGMUFFINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TL;DR: OP is yet another meta-attempt by a anti-PFC alliance leader. This time the sandbox delivers us the fraudulent campaign with a more thinly veiled smear attempt and a fat dollop of racism frosting.

Of course it will. You're out to be a spoiler. You have no course except to further your own rot. Which leaves others no recourse but to limit its spread.
Back to the topic: CCP has those instruments but they are not effective.
My bad, I had no idea your Mute, Block and Report buttons were'nt working. You need to send in a support ticket not patronize the rest of the playerbase with your "moral" agenda.
This shouldn't be about how to deal with it, it should be about not dealing at all.
Don't want to deal with it? See above, get that Mute, Block and Report buttons to work and you won't have to deal with it.
Pseudo-PFC is completely aside and will be discussed with competent individuals at a later date.
Another meeting of the involved parties that doesn't include you. Good to know progress is being made on that front.
As for now just be a human you claim you are and don't interfere in what is non-pseudo-political topic and touches real issue.
If the issue is as pertinently real as you claim then my input wouldn't be interference. If your true intentions are actually as I have claimed then Yes, I am interfering and No, I will not stop. Because I am human.
In other words: "This is not a place to put politics, it is about player base. Grow up(mentally)."
Again with the patronizing. Your attitude doesn't conceal your evident unwillingless to use the tools available to us all for the "issue" you have but it does reveal your unwillingness to accept that the "issue" you have is yours because you choose to have it instead of using the provided tools to resolve it.

Oh, calm down youngling. I use those tools a lot. Does it have any effect? Well if I am writing this here then no. Get real.
Sure, Gramma, I'll calm down. What's that, Gramma? CCP doesn't give a **** about what you have to say? Damn, Gramma, I wonder why? Even more since you're obviously the highest standard bearer of mature behaviour and activity!! I feel bad for you, Gramma. So, so bad. Yes, lets get real Grammie, you'll probably want to sit down, take your wooden teeth out and buckle up for this next part:
Eliminating racism only happens with elimination of race. There have been many many attempts at this across the history of human civilization, some successful some abject failures. If racial cleansing is what you demand from us here in this video game, Gramma, you can go **** yourself. Otherwise, Gramma, recognize that you are not alone and that not everyone around you agrees with your ideas of "proper conduct" and most of those people even see your toothless bullshit for what it is- and have no problem pointing it out. Bye, Grammie! Don't forget your teeth!

Bingo? Can I get a Bingo, Grams?? Violence in FPS? Do you read wikipedia or what? Maybe it reduces pro-social behaviour among participants in reality and increases aggressiveness which is far from violence practice. Now violence in games doesn't have same flavour as in reality. Lose an important match and hit a couch screaming(surely unstable and highly neurotic but not a behaviour of a violent individual), now lose important match and go outside, be violent to someone: 1) It will be hard to keep aggressiveness from the loss. 2) You will be either in custody for indecent behaviour or someone will bit the sh!t out of you until you calm down. Violence related to gaming experience is not violence related to reality experience. It can be same for those who are mentally unstable, true. Let us suppose you are mentally healthy, because every saint would have your behaviour on forums, it is widely acceptable and is not judged thus is not considered detrimental. Now what happens is that gaming violence is far from xenophobia which is aggressive behaviour or in other words violence which is coming from reality experience. What I claim is that there is increasing amount of xenophobia, subtle one, which brings "real violence" into "virtual violence". See both dollar and euro banknote are banknotes but they have different real value. Grammar always ready to share knowledge with younglings. P.S.: Besides imagine you are being outrageous because I won and you lose. You hate me because it happened. If at the very moment I would appear near you, would you hit me? Well nope, you cannot be aggressive if you want to, the brain doesn't work that way. You learn how to be a bad person, considering that being bad is having antisocial behaviour, it must be something that led you to that: environment, family, terrible events. At this point I do not remember games making the list. So would you hit me? Well unless you have started the way towards the dark side, no. In the end, you cannot claim violence in game is the one we should ban since it is not the same as for reality. However if you want to keep claiming that, please have time to read scientific article about what you claim. "Games" don't bring violence to society and we shouldn't bring violence from society into "games".
So...immediately after insisting the topic xenophobia not be swayed from an entire dissertation with cited evidence about violence and violence in gaming is produced?

Same can be said for nationalism which is what this xenophobism bs is rooted in.
as further examples Russians sometimes get served a hissy fit and I am sure Australians would be insulted if we were more common , we are far away from the servers and cause lag
Hell, the Aussies lost their dedicated server space (Oceania) and there wasn't anybody claiming xenophobia in here
End of the day despite his protests of it this entire OP/thread is an attempt by aguy who wants to disrupt a planned PFC area for noob corps to drum up support for his cause. The calling out od "prominent corps" and this OP in the timeline of his other forum postings show the trend very clearly.

You watch too much fox news, and seem shocked when someone hammers you with the truth Hannity fails to share about the world around you lol! The media profits from showing nothing but foolishness. It's evident in everything they present to the public. The race baiting, the way they title the story, and 2) how they harp on social imperfections. Why is it always "white cop shoots minority of some type" news reports? Why not cover the many things going on in this country, and abroad, that is clearly more important? What about the egg crisis in the country due to another strain of bird flu that has just killed millions of chickens across the country? Now we're importing eggs like shirts made in taiwan?! Watch the egg prices shy rocket. The fact that you were only able the highlight the fact that I don't vote, as if it makes a difference since we have the electorial college, doesn't surprise me. It does, however, just boggle the mind that nothing else there seems important to you? Here's a white man in america that has been told by a socially biased America that I should be lazy, a thief, and I should be shot on sight because my only interest in life is to be a criminal. 3) YOU, and men and women like you, should be rejoicing at the fact that I have just proved so many stereotypes wrong! You should be throwing parties because your tax dollars, if you pay taxes, aren't going toward feeding my kids that (stereotypically) I don't take care of. All you caught was 'I don't vote"? 4) So you say I'm an evil American because it's my "responsibility" to do so? I thought it was a right? A choice that I am free to make? No? Now I "have" to vote? Well when they talk about something I can vote on I will. Not voting for the president doesn't mean I didn't vote on senators, clergymen, treasurers, state legislature, etc. You know, the ones that matter?! Because the laws that are being passed in this country lately have all been geared to strip me of my rights! I have quite literally been unable to vote for one side or the other because they both have secret agendas gunning to the same conclusion?! 5) Federal government wants to control the transportation industry, take my guns and gun rights, cut military spending for troops (this guy), so much more. They built mote prisons in California than schools in the last 10 years, and I'm supposed to support this? Look it all up, and turn Hannity off bro. Happy hunting o7

2-You mean like crying xenophobia in a global online multiplayer videogame forum?

So then how much of the Cognitive Dissonance phenomena you describe do you apply to yourself, in this context here, having posted what you see as some unique xenophobic behavior on the part of certain in-game groups and now having had multiple present and former members of those groups and others present their experiential opinons that your conclusion is incorrect?

Well, no addressing of the previous points so we'll continue on then with these.
Where and when in this thread am I pretending stereotypes describe the large majority of anyone?
You've made an interesting transition in idea, from people ("like" me) being shaped by mass media (Fox news/Hannity) to those people now being shaped by "social media". Social media (like this forum) being distinctly different from mass media in content, audience and purpose. Most notably tho they're different in their content generation sources, mass media long having been the outlet of major media interests whereas social media is a cumulative total of its social userbase.
So since now its social media leading folks astray into stereotyping at what point do we consider the individual's responsibility in society at recognizing when and when is not a stereotype applicable? A stereotype such as xenophohia being the motivator behind a group or individuals actions or activities?
Heres a stereotype:
All US Army personnel are torturers and blatant treasonists.
Heres a couple "proofs" of that.
[insert absolutely inappropriate for this forum weblink images of Abu Ghraib prison abuse and Bowe Berghdal here]
So, how accurate is the statement above?
And how does its accuracy or inaccuracy relate to the OP's conclusion that outright xenophobism is the underlying force behind the games current "prominent corps"?

Well, no addressing of the previous points so we'll continue on then with these. Where and when in this thread am I pretending stereotypes describe the large majority of anyone? You've made an interesting transition in idea, from people ("like" me) being shaped by mass media (Fox news/Hannity) to those people now being shaped by "social media". Social media (like this forum) being distinctly different from mass media in content, audience and purpose. Most notably tho they're different in their content generation sources, mass media long having been the outlet of major media interests whereas social media is a cumulative total of its social userbase. So since now its social media leading folks astray into stereotyping at what point do we consider the individual's responsibility in society at recognizing when and when is not a stereotype applicable? A stereotype such as xenophohia being the motivator behind a group or individuals actions or activities? Heres a stereotype: All US Army personnel are torturers and blatant treasonists. Heres a couple "proofs" of that. [insert absolutely inappropriate for this forum weblink images of Abu Ghraib prison abuse and Timothy McVeigh here] So, how accurate is the statement above? And how does its accuracy or inaccuracy relate to the OP's conclusion that outright xenophobism is the underlying force behind the games current "prominent corps"? edited: removed Bowe Bergdahl from example, inserted Tim McVeigh OK one for the road, why not? What you're doing is arguing for the sake of argument at this point. My point was made 2 or 3 pages ago, but like most forum trolls, you would rather pick apart certain sections of a word than deal with the topic in it's entirety. I gave problem, reason, and solution, and laid out who, what, when, where, why, and how. At which point you simply began to do what trolls do best. Type. No real point, but I can smell the offense taken. You(your type), see this stereotype, don't like to admit what you know to be right is in fact wrong. I'll put this simply, and I'm done... IT IS NOT RIGHT, MORALLY OR OTHERWISE, TO ADDRESS ANYONE NEGATIVELY WITHOUT PROPER CAUSE! The setting doesn't matter. Video game, social media, clan rally, boxing match, etc. It doesn't matter what race, color, creed, or ethnicity. If I'm black, let me be black! Why does what I do in my spare time matter to you so much? If I'm not causing bodily harm to you or yours, so be it! All the OP asked was for us, as a community, to be more aware of others. Why was that met with such disdain? None of you denied it taking place. You even admitted to knowing that racial slurs are indeed thrown around, and there is a general hatred for the Spanish community in-game. Instead you guys came here to defend the actions, slurs, and behaviors??? Say what you want I'm done with it. Smh
So more blanket platitudes and scorn.
I addressed your compatriot as I see him, an individual attempting to cultivate support by lambasting large swaths of playerbase ("prominent corps") for the behaviour of a few. You chose to deride me directly, making claims against my individual actions that despite multiple pages and opportunities you haven't shown where those actions occur despite your who/what/when/where/why and how spill.
Best part is your general postings. Everything from social media taints peoples perceptions to the govmint is out to get you to you are just black and just want to be left alone you ignore your own empowerment in each and every decision to instead try to blame me or people or society for your own bad decision-making. Bad decision-making like opening your dumb mouth in the first place mr. JustLeaveMeAlone. I'm not stalking you. I didn't write your life history as a government worker divorced from the reality that it IS in fact my tax money that feeds your kids, got you that great interest rate on your truck and probably at least partially paid for both your PS3 AND w/e device you're on these forums with. BUT how dare I question some forum scoobie making claims against a playerbase he barely if at all actually seems to participate with? I didn't enter here and talk **** until after questioning this Dalmont clown and he (like you) decided to make condecending personal attacks.
****** part for you is that every generalization you've made about me has been baseless and incorrect. I'm neither white nor rich nor poor nor a foxnews disciple or whatever else. All so that you could avoid having to face the fact that this "issue" of xenophobia isn't. And that all those devices you use to try to prove it is, are all the exact same devices you're crying about other people using.
That isn't offense you're smelling, its incredulity.

... is exactly the sort of thing that justifies the **** talk you're protesting. "Proper Cause" is easily aspects or behaviours that others find detrimental to ones gaming experience. GO READ those 8 pages of responses about lag etc. Difference is, unlike the MUTE or BLOCK buttons that a player can use to silence the comments of others they don't want to hear there are no magic buttons to resolve lag or questionable connection speeds.
Yeah, stay in the army bud. We've got enough idiots with kids out here in the real world with no critical thinking skills.
