Racism In Chat
 
Hi Mods/Admins,

I would like to bring to your attention an example of loosely and somewhat implied racism that takes place in the RS Chat. This is perhaps a small glimpse of what goes on as it is not a fully moderated colosseum of social discussion. At times, the level of racism is beyond belief where users throw racial slurs around like wild apes.

And to boot, the quoted member below is a hypocrite and action should be taken against said user:

Perhaps the RS Chat feature should be reconsidered. An investigation into the matter is much appreciated and thank you for your time.

Here is another case I would like to bring to light.
Quote:

RS Chat is available on a TRIAL BASIS. The same rules as the forums apply: No flaming, no NSFW content.


Equal actions should apply to both users in question.

Photo bomb?

Mods don't care and racism is tolerated by selecting members. I reported a clearly racist post and nothing has been done about it.

Basically you can be racist and just hope the 10% chance a mod does care, it's not you they ban but someone else to say "they take it seriously".

Double standards

C'mon, Soundy. It' just the Internet. Don't poke your nose in other peoples affairs.

Clarification of RS's stance on the word n**** would be appreciated.

I ask, because n**** is a noteworthy example of a pejorative which has undergone melioration. N**** is acceptable in equally as many instances as it is unacceptable, it would generally appear.

Good at dishing out the leftist tut-tutting... not so good at taking it?

bcrdukes 02-26-2013 06:57 PM

Glad you caught my post so now it will be evident that I can be permanently banned. It's what I wanted and I knew I could count on you for pointing it out.

knight604 02-26-2013 07:00 PM

Not sure why you taking this so seriously , im not even saying it like in any racial way.

I say that to address everyone as my friends.

I'm not racist to anyone.

Not sure why you are attacking me , or just trying to keep the peace.

But surely if a Mod asks me to stop i would glady oblige.

dlo 02-26-2013 07:17 PM

I don't give a fuck whether you're here or not, I'm just pointing out your own hypocrisy in the matter (and the even greater irony of you calling someone else a hypocrite over this).

bcrdukes 02-26-2013 07:32 PM

Open wide, Soundy. :)

I am choosing to censor, n****, to eschew causing unintentional offense.

I am unconcerned with previous incidents, the opportunity to hold a reasonably intelligent discussion on them has long past.

!SG 02-26-2013 08:24 PM

dont worry about censorship.

RS chat will be shut down tonite as of midnight.
