    This really makes me wonder if the 'melting pot' concept really is unique. Not only does the immigrant adapt, but the society takes the best parts and adds it to itself as well.

    Like the Borg.

    Most gamers are white males, overwhelmingly. The accepted meme in WoW is that "girl" stands for "Guy In Real Life", and the accepted logic is that they're a guy until they prove otherwise. So one can certainly apply the same logic, with the forums and white males.

    People will pretend to be butthurt about anything just to create drama and pity now days.

    I guess there's no more dressing up as witches, zombies, princess or vampires anymore.
    Really would NOT want to offend any of those guys.

    Should i assume every black person shares the opinion of Al Sharpton? then why should you assume every native american shares the opinion of those that go on tv to protest it?
    Saying that an anonymous poster (who has the chance of being a white pretender) is a questionable source isn't saying that Native Americans can't take offense to it. Try again.

    Vampires, witches, zombies are real? Princesses are an ethnic group? Oh wait....you just trouble with analogies.

    Indeed. I live in Ireland and to my great surprise still haven't seen a single leprechaun yet.

    Annoying the politically correct should be an Olympic Sport. Either that or turned into a TV show; so much wasted potential.

    It seems the "Politically Correct" are the ones winning the Olympic event then. As complaints seem to stem from things changing in favor of the "Politically Correct."

    I had to laugh at this as well. We're all racist white gamers; it's all very obvious, what with the obligation to use our real name, location and images. Oh wait.

    Well that wasnt a MMO C post. Im also pretty sure that white males arnt the vast majority of internet users, so you're just taking an asusmption and applying it everywhere.

    Get back to me when people change into their "politically correct" Halloween costumes en masse then. A few attention-seeking university students don't count.

    you're not oversensitive miss runaway from every muslim becuase they're bad...? Really?!
    I cant really say i'm shocked anymore. I really can't. You don't see the blatant generalizations you are making right now? You're associating someones opinion and labeling them something because of it.

    For all you know, most of the users on here could be black or asian. There's no objective way of knowing; people have no obligation to be honest or truthful.

    It sure does actually feel great being a white heterosexual sheltered middle class male, dressin up as one of the endangered minorities on Halloween to spread hatred and fear for all those below us.

    Get back to me when you grasp that I was talking about "Political Correctness" as a whole. And how things are constantly changing en masse in favor of it.

    Can't help but notice the almost complete lack of outrage when it's done by those on the opposite side of the isle at a (I'm exaggerating, but it's still high, as there's only one Themius) 50:1 ratio.

    This is how you think: " OMG a gamer isn't offended by the same things i am, they are all racists "
