In my view I would ask you Shadow if you have ever called the help line?

So somehow the race of the tech support person has; 1 something to do with the topic? and 2 the amount of information Microsoft allows to give to the tech support individual.

 

It's got nothing to do with race and everything to do with an unpleasant and frustrating experience being made even more unpleasant and frustrating by virtue of the fact that you can't understand a fucking word the operator is saying. Nobody is impressed by your over devotion to political correctness, mister!

I'm not being politically correct, but halogamer has used a problem someone has had getting their xbox repaired to attack tech support jobs being focused in another country.

I temporarily worked in tech support, and I will tell you some Americans are more difficult to understand then Indians.  Although both pale in comparison to undertanding spoken word from Irish and Scottish accents.

 

 Looks more like a personal crusade to blow things way out of proportion. Calling someone a "racist" is a very powerful word, and for all I know halogamer very well could be. But I know one thing, before I go making accusations like that ima be damn sure I know for a fact they are. You derailed the whole thread to attack someone and take his statement completely out of text. I dont know if you have ever experienced racism yourself or seen it happen to others, but this isnt what it is.
