Neph/Fairy/it. Why the racism though?

[EaglePhoenix]

I don't think racism can be condoned in any way - but the question begs where to draw the line.
I'm sure everyone complains about "them indo's" and considers every "Indo" as a potential hacker - it's been sprouted plentiful on the forums, but is it racism or realism? Should it be allowed, or should there be made a statement by a PW spokesperson?

One could excuse the "Nigga plz xD" since the term "Nigga" is more freely used among people of different race and ethnicity, regardless of the origin of the word.
"yellow rice eater" is quite an obvious case and does not need any excuses.

On the other hand, there's plenty of disrespect towards any kind of person in the game (it's also possible to discriminate 'white' people) in various ways. Not limited to racism and discrimination, per sé. I don't think there's much done about it.
We are 2016 and in the time this game came out up till now, nothing much has ever been done about any of the above.
As you can see, there's hardly any moderation on these forums or ingame - do not expect any more of that suddenly now.

It's known that for this game in particular, one needs a very thick skin.


People are running around with Adolf Hitler hints in their names for years on here - Nobody ever did anything about that either.

Banning one of the ten players left is shooting in their own foot. A nice feature would have been to mute people who said x-words x-many times in x-time frame - but at this point in the game's history, that's like closing the stable door after the horse has bolted.
'Noble' as your attentions may be - do not expect any sympathy on these forums. It's widely known we are a salty bunch, and love to argue despite the fact that in the roots we may or may not agree with the actual topic. Also, one could wonder if your actions are as noble as they appear to be or if it's just used to spite the person you have a gripe with.
