I lol'd at the thought of "scorpion army" ... :lol: Release the Taco Bell dogs of hell !!!!!!!!!! :twisted: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Is there any way to, say, create a "group" effect in safe areas like Catherby with dropped Chins? :unsure: I know you can do this using a bow with hunter bots ...

Oh! My sides! :lol:

Actually -- I voted "it's too early to tell" ... :shades: What I wanted to know was whether or not people thought that Runescape was headed in a declining direction.

Actually - I'm Afro-Carribbean - but if you want me to split hairs, I will ... :rolleyes:

... sighs ... source

My thoughts from the start tbh. Polly want a cracker? OMFG!@!@!@!@!@!@!@ She said CRACKER!@!@!@ Racist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 Now THAT made me lol. :lol:

I want a screenshot of that because in my 10 years of runescape, and hanging around at least 3 people who were PERM MUTED for offensive language - (Jmag, Pokey, Keeler) have NEVER seen anything half that vulgar and racist. Heck, Sleets, Pokey, and a few other good and well known pkers played black characters and NEVER got called a racial slur in my time killing with em. You've been playing the hell out of the race card since you've started posting. What a load of [cabbage], Firstly, I don't believe in censorship, secondly, they are you're freaking screenshots right? You can post them wherever the piss you want. Sexist comments -- and these are WITH the censor ... I'm sure I'll find a few racist remarks tonight when I log in.

I'd post the screenies that I posted in that OTHER forum -- but you'd just delete them because they're from a "PRIVATE" place ... :rolleyes: How quickly you forget things. You must be getting old Das.

Obvious troll is obvious ... Your ignorance clouds your sense of reason. You bring it upon yourself. Others have agreed with me. You're fighting a losing argument. Let the thread die, you look like a fool. "People agree with me, therefore I must be right!" :rolleyes: You don't play with me in-game -- you've no idea who I am or how I play in game. A message forum and on-line play are entirely two separate things. You read only what you want to read and comprehend even less than that. If you've nothing to add to the discussion then there is nothing here for you to see. Stop being a haughty horse's backside and either contribute something valid or get off the thread. This is a real problem. The fact is, and remains, that there are people who are going to hurl racist and sexist insults in the game. You'd prefer to simply close your eyes and pretend it's not happening. That's not a solution that's ignoring the elephant in the room. You're not part of the solution you're not offering a solution you're only compounding the problem with your ignorance. "I hate being generalized, but I will happily generalize those who criticize my argument that has more holes than swiss cheese!" I don't need to play with you in game to know exactly that type of person you are. You're a choleric, and you think you command authority and demand respect wherever you roam. If you act completely different in game than you do on a forum, you may suffer from MPD, or stupidity. Probably the latter. You've made a pointless thread and it's life has been extended far beyond it's usefulness (none), so for that I applaud you. I have contributed something, it just happens to be something you disagree with. See my original statement, please. This is a real problem. The fact is, and remains, that there are people like you who would prefer to simply close their eyes and cover their ears and pretend that your one stand against the evils of the world is going to make any real change at all. It's not happening. There is no solution. There will always be racism, there will always be sexism, there will always be discrimination. Why? Because there will always be people different from each other. It's those who can acknowledge this simple to grasp concept that can move on with their lives without losing too much sleep because a Teenager called them something mean. You are the problem. So -- tell me -- when are you going to get your head out of your ass and realize that the problem *I* am talking about isn't about *me*, but rather the examples being set for other (impressionable) players who turn the filters on/off and see people making derogatory racist and sexist remarks? Realization sets in -- in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... :rolleyes: On the contrary, it is about you, because any sensible, no, not even -- any intelligent person would make the obvious choice and ignore the person, report them, and move on. Last I checked, the only thing that has changed is the ability to visually see the obscenities now. Yet, before today, I heard not a peep from you. And, to also mention, no one else seems to be whining to such a degree that you are. I would say "Realization sets in -- in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... ", but sweetheart, you're obviously too self-absorbed and caught up in your own little world to care about reality. OP is just looking for attention and an outlet for whining. No further explanation needed. Cheez whiz snookums -- perhaps you should really take the time and read what I've said. What I am asking is, should I sit idle and let the filter make everything look like: "Hey *****, come here and **** my **** and let me **** you in the ***. Now be a good ****** and shine my shoes." Or, should I turn the filter on and report it for being vulgar and racist? You're purporting that I should leave the filter on and just let it slide because, "hey, it's all about [me] and this 'uppity black woman' got what she deserved." I am saying -- no, while it's all water off a duck's back to me, if I simply let it go, there's other people around who will watch this kind of behaviour go unchallenged and model their own behaviour after it. :rolleyes:

LOL! Sorry! My bad! "Gay looking" is a man who dresses well ... OMG! :lol:

YAY! Not an argument! :rolleyes:

Out of context comments are out of context. Thanks for playing! :rolleyes:

Once again a friendly reminder to anyone seeking a Heroes' Quest partner. You may join my clan chat "Blyaunte" and we'll hook you up with someone who can help you finish the quest! :thumbsup:

Obvious troll is obvious ...

source Thank you Bladewing -- that clarifies things a lot. :thumbup:

Phr33 st00f pl0x! :thumbsup:

If the curses and slurs are aimed at you, it's offensive. Otherwise, who the hell cares? "Go to hell!" is offensive. "Oh hell no" isn't. Funny -- I never considered "go to hell" to be offensive ... :unsure:

My kids have been mugged by "Arabs" too ... :unsure: Yeah -- I tried that for a time -- but I came off as a gay looking white guy who sounds black ... <_< Then you're one of the very few ...

*ding ding ding*

So, if people "learn" racism (as well as possibly inherit some aspects of it), then why would anyone allow such acts to go unchallenged when it is within their power to affect change? Do you honestly think that people should be allowed to make such degrading remarks about other people in front of impressionable minds and, therefore, continue the pattern of behaviour? I agree but then, how does one "counter" racism? Do we sit idly by and just allow it to happen because "it's just a game"? Then if we allow people to continue making racist remarks unchallenged, do you not by your silence condone their racism? That is the problem though. The filter is, technically, there to protect *my* sensibilities but what about the sensibilities of other impressionable people?

Look miss, you are calling for political correctness yet you keep proclaiming someones opinion is inferior to yours because of their marital status, gender and race, (and age but this one is the most warranted out of the list) Can you finish this argument without attacking the the things that make him different from you? Can you argue the point without pointing out his race and gender? You are appearing to be the racist and sexist among us. He asked me how his gender and race reflected his responses -- I provided him with an answer. Which part of *that* conversation did you miss? ... and you've evaded my question: Is racism inherited or learned? I await your reply please.
