    infract moderators for making racist comments

    So this thread http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...te-supremacist got closed.


    reason given is this.




    So basically anyone who has an argument about it is either BLM or racist white supremecists.

    I find it racist to say that anyone with an opinion on the matter has to belong to one of these two groups. So all white people are white supremecists if they argue in that thread.

    Moderators should be held to higher standards than the average poster.

    She just pointed the truth about the topic that will be discussed, not who discuss it.

    Your thread title is whats wrong with todays media. Nothing the moderator said was racist, at best you can disagree with them believing that the topic wouldnt have resulted in healthy discussion. While im not a moderator, i agree with the lock. Its not about generalizing everyone to be either BLM or a white supremecist, its about preventing things from escalating. While topics such as politics, religion, race, etc. can lead to perfectly healthy discussions in theory, in reality they tend to end badly.

    Mods are out of control. All green ones should be replaced, they are just too subjective when they infract people. The only good mods are the blue ones, I think it's because the color?

    You know it's possible to

    1. Post in a thread and not be a part of the argument that she mentioned.
    2. Be part of that argument, but not be one of the groups she mentioned.

    right?

    That's not.... what she's implying at all. It's in regards to the topics that will be brought up... good grief.

    Yes, but they also need to do there job. If that means keeping us mortals from going on a pointless shouting match - then so be it.

    I get the Babylon 5 reference, even if unintended

    Challenge Mode : Play WoW like my disability has me play:
    You will need two people, Brian MUST use the mouse for movement/looking and John MUST use the keyboard for casting, attacking, healing etc.
    Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
    Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.

    No, that's not what racism is.
    Nice try though, 2/10.

    Get of your high horse.

    That's not racism, no matter how much you want it to be.

    Or is this a reading comprehension issue? She clearly said "This is going to end up in a racial...". Important keywords right there.

    Looks like you have some sort of vendetta with the mods here, so take it to them instead.

    I don't think I've ever seen a mod get infracted. Doubt they'd start now.

    If you had any serious concern you would have PMed a blue. This thread is just trolling.

    Who are we to say that he hasn't? I have done so, with no response. When one channel proves fruitless, the only logical thing is to try another.

    I feel like we are reading things that aren't there.

    That said, if you feel a moderator is making racist comments, please report them to a blue.
