Thread: Warning :: Play the ball not the man

    Exclamation Warning :: Play the ball not the man

    I see a lot of name calling. Even calling somebody a racist is sitting the wrong way with me. Call the writings racist and report the posts but don't go replying that somebody is a racist. It is a very heavy thing to be calling anybody in passing. Steer clear of it and rather let mods deal with it.

    You are a racist for barring us from calling each other racist. It's our nationalistic contitutional right to call other people racists.

    It's a difficult one though , with my posts you can see I am a religious fanatic and with some peoples posts like the guy in the other thread. You can see that they are rasist.

    I guees that we will have to resort to calling them members who repeatedly post rasist posts(mwrprp)

    Actually I want you to report racist posts right off the bat to the mods... Don't resort to naming anybody anything. Just because you consider something racist doesn't mean it is. So attack the words and not the people behind them. It is more civilized and makes for a better place.

    While I have no problem with the way the mods/admins apply their warnings/infractions/bans, sometimes you leave us no choice.

    Apache was on MyBB for a year, I'm sure there were a lot of RBP's during that time.

    Meh. Racists know that racism here us relative. If it was frowned upon for real there'd be no racist remarks here but there are plenty. And lots of racists too. They resort to innuendos, half truths and the like these days.
