Yes, we are a very racist community here.

Typical Norwegian comment.

It's been a while since i threw a picture in here:



I'm the guy on the left, this is at Falls Festival, which i went to over NYE

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Ah Falls Festival one of the many many Aussie music festivals I'm always too broke to go to.
Will you be going to BDO, about half of my friends are I think?

[_Haldir_]

Yeah i'm definitely keen to go. I'll have to save up a bit first though, Falls certainly wasn't cheap

Have you been to BDO or anything Rad?

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Nah the one time I had the money for it, I forgot to order tickets.
Maybe I'll go next year.

[_Haldir_]

It's definitely worth it Especially if you've got some good friends you can enjoy it with.

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Ummm kay.

How is that racist, it says Muslim Fascist, last time I checked there's no such race.
He'd be a theist(ist) and everyone is theist(ist).
It also lists Communists and Atheists.
I'm an Atheist and I'm not offended even a little.
If you are offended by it, it's time to put on some big boy britches.
Besides this isn't the place to discuss that try here.

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

His signature is a commentary on Philosophical ideologies so unless you are a Muslim Fascist I don't see the issue.
He's not calling all Muslims fascist.

[_Haldir_]

Okay look, writing "Islamic Fascists" next to a picture of the Three Stooges isn't racist. If it only said "Islam" or if he'd written "Black Pakistani's", then yes it would be, but the key word is Fascists. The signature isn't targeting that group based on their religion, but the fascist ideology that they've taken on under the guise of religion. It's no more racist than if he'd written "Christian Fundamentalists" there instead.

(And as Rad pointed out, it's not even racist at all. It makes no mention of race. Islam is not exclusive to one race).

I'm not gonna post my picture, everyone's gonna hate me because I'm Black and Pakistani

Well yeah, some people are racist here. Ever seen hostiles signature? I wondr wjat je would do if he knew i was a muslim?

i aint offended, just a little sickened that people think like this.

You really have no right to go around labelling people as racist, even if Hostile's signature was prejudiced. You should be highlighting the instance that offended you, and explaining why you feel it was offensive. What you shouldn't do, is imply that everyone in the community hates you, or that Hostile's opinions are sick. That's a big exaggeration, and to be honest, a little rude to suggest that the T3A community would tolerate blatant racism, let alone be part of it.

If you really take offense to something, do some research first. Maybe ask the person themselves, in case it was a misunderstanding. If it's definitely offensive, then use the Report button or PM one of the forum staff. Posting your complaint under a veil of self pity, in an unrelated thread, is not the right way to go about it.

Personally, ReallyFat, you brought this on yourself.
You're the one who said:

I'm not gonna post my picture, everyone's gonna hate me because I'm Black and Pakistani

No one needed to know that.
And you also said "everyone's", are you trying to say we are all racist here?
There is a joke and most people mean what they say as a joke.
If someone was trying to piss another race off, then everyone would that they're not joking

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Now time to get back on topic.

[Lauri]

Yes.. ReallyFat, get a picture up or we will hate you

[Hostile]

My signature strikes havoc once more! How about that?

I wonder if ReallyFat knows I'm married to an African woman from Tanzania, I doubt it, assumes I'm racist..

I'm better described as an anti-statist.

Nice sword ! Have you other ones ?

Thanks! Not yet. I'll probably be getting an axe in a month after my income tax check comes in.

mike, you know what this means. When the world ends, we must find each other and be a sword-fighting duo.

[NewErr]

And who will lose will be slain by the victor, but will have the honor to not see the World's End, but die by the sword !!!

Ohh my ...
