Racist thread [CLOSED] KRK

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=148388

I consider the above thread, White Trash, to be racist. It is invited people to make stereotypes and innuendo about people of a specific race. The third post in that thread includes the phrase "i fucking hate white trash."

Now am I allowed to say "I fucking hate brown trash," or "I fucking hate black trash"? I understand the difference between "white power" and "green power" as laid out in the guidelines, but this is specifically referring to a race, and if I substituted a different race I don't see how that would fly with you mods. Zero tolerance for bigotry, so let's get this racist thread closed.

I'm not sure if the topic means what you think it does, but I'm sure you have put it in the wrong forum...

Ok, let me make a topic called "I hate fags" and then say I was referring to cigarettes. Critical thinking is your friend.

:roll:
I aid "I'm not sure".. didn't say you are wrong or right.. not even close to criticism. but this forum is about game cheat & abuse, not social topics abuse. and i don't care what topics you would start and what kind of hate you like to show.

This is the wrong forum. Please use the Report function (the triangle button on the top right of a post) on that topic if you feel it violates the rules.

If the OP believes the thread is offensive and was offended then this is the right forum to put it in. Abuse of the forum rules. This is not just a forum to report game cheats, but is a forum to report cheating and abuse. There have been numerous issues reported and ruled on in this forum that had nothing to do with gameplay. I personally think the thread in question was meant as a joke, but what might be funny to one person may not be funny to another person. If the OP was offended by the thread in question he has every right to post it here.

Here's the entire quote the op is referring to

guys, golf balls take like a million years to decompose! and apple puts all kinds of toxic shit in their laptops. quit throwing these things out.


Quite a different meaning when you actually include the entire post. Nice try on the redirect there O.P.

This forum is only for cheating and/or abuse of the CC game rules, as well as issues about player accounts and ratings. All forum rule violations should be reported to the forum moderators via the use of the Report button. Please do not come here to report forum issues, it's not the job of the C&A mods to deal with that stuff.

I apologize for misplacing this complaint, metsfan. It was unintentional. I have used the triangle button per your earlier post, and will do so in the future for posts or threads I feel violate the rules.

I would like to very quickly reply to this, then be done with the thread.

My primary complaint is about the thread hence why it says Racist Thread in the title. The thread makes no bones about its topic, as can be seen in the poll:

White Trash

You may select 1 option

White Trash people rule!

White Trash people suck!

Notice that the poll is directly asserting that the thread concerns people and not different-colored garbage or whatnot.
