    That's a regular thing on MMO-Champ, though. Which, strangely enough, doesn't generate nearly as much outrage as when two or three people say something slightly critical about white people. Wonder why that is?

    Again I am speaking of a very small area (a forum) and a small section of culture (gamer culture) an even comparison would be a forum with a lot of black people that have a certain attitude. I don't know why you people can't make similar analogies, it's pathetic...

    2 wrongs dont make a right. It just makes you look like a spiteful crusader.

    Saying that white people on these boards wouldn't condemn another for saying something racist (which is a common thing on these boards) is racist?

    Nah, because I'm not one of the people I was referring to in my post. Just because it's common place and I constantly point it out, that doesn't mean that I have confirmation bias.

    Because then you become racist and those a racist thoughts.
    To me you are the single most racist person on these forums.
    You always are looking for a race issue, do you think all white people are racist because that is the vibe you give off.

    Grats, one poster went on a crusade of stupid shit and most of the forum called him out for being stupid or just ignored his threads completely as they weren't worth the time of day.

    Also you and Booshman have no idea how many people report threads for racism, I report quite many where people attack ME or Asian countries and are racist. But sorry Im a white gamer nerd living in my mums basement, I sit here throwing darts at pictures of Marting Luther King all day.

    I dunno if it's racist, but it's a pretty stupid ass assumption.

    it's not a confirmation bias... confirmation bias is paying attention to x and seeing it more because you're paying more attention to it.

    AFter the Zimmerman case this place became a hotbed of racism towards blacks.

    You mean after thousands of black people announced publicly they would attack white people for no reason other than George Zimmerman was free?
    People report the news, if it was white people attacking blacks it would be just as talked about at least here.

    It's as if you're on completely different forum than others.
