    Question Ethnic Threads are getting out of hand in OT

    Whoops meant ETHNIC.

    I think there should be a limit on what should be discussed or something. It seems all ethnic threads from my own experiences and [my own threads ofc] have seemed to start and end the same way; with racial bashing. Its easier to spare people the infraction and anger by limiting or banning the discussion of the topic. Theres not much to discuss anyways except bashing eachother and derailing the thread with racial comments. What do you think?

    I hope you realize the irony in what you've done.

    Off topic is the stomping ground of the passive/aggressive personality.

    I do and I take fault in my actions, not realizing what the outcome would turn out to be.

    I wouldn't say passive at all.. -Far- from passive.

    Pretty easy to tell, still surprising to me how many people will just pop in with some racist one liner for pretty much no other reason than an infraction. Then they probably go on to bitch about mods unfairly targeting them or some such, usually Endus for some reason.

    Ethical questions can be some of the most difficult to grapple with both logically and emotionally. If anything I think we need more posts discussing ethics.

    Right? Showing discrimination anywhere -- rudeness anywhere shouldn't be tolerated at all and if one expects it should be then they're bonkers.

    At the current time, I think its best to close the ethnic threads down. Theres a lot of controversy going on right now and its best to keep it as far away from Mmochampion just like how "the others" [Religion, Sexuality, etc] discussions are banned from discussing.

    We do our best to combine or close duplicate threads and we ask that you report any posts that you feel have crossed the line, but it's important that we allow people to discuss (as long as it isn't a forbidden topic) current events and things going on that are important to them and the forum.
