Lmao that made me laugh actually good one Badgenome I need a laugh today

I'm glad I could intentionally misunderstand you in a humorous fashion, then.

I checked this guy’s profile, and under education it has “more then you will ever have”. I also see that he is banned.

Isn’t the definition if dumb, the lack of ability to absorb information? His guy has been given more information they you or I will ever have, and yet… seems not to have absorbed it

Just some observations. You all can come to your own conclusions. I would not want to insult anyone directly, as I understand what it takes to get banned. :)

I'm sorry I'm not telling the guys behind this site how to mange it but a guy like Samus Aran should be banned for life and his ignorant comments should be deleted. I am not black or African by any means but these comments are irritating, dumb and full of hate.

Um..I think this thread has gone out of control. Probably not a good idea to keep it open...

....wow......thats just way over the line pal.

OT: i agree with Shadowblind. this thread is spinning out of control.

Hey - here's the quote.

One of the games that comes to mind is "Left 4 Dead 2." Though the game isn't out yet, it's already causing an uproar. Set in New Orleans, players will have to fight their way through hordes of zombies - with several of them who appear to be African-Americans. When I saw the first trailer for the game, all I could think about was Hurricane Katrina and the aftermath. Setting the game in a city that was scene of dead, bloated bodies floating by so soon afterward was a bad call, IMHO. The city has had enough to deal with -- Valve, you should have spared them, even if it's just a video game.

The paragraph before that - racial undertones appearing in games - is about a trend that could be perceived.

Look at my quote - I said the zombies appeared to be black. I stated - right there - I was talking about Hurricane Katrina and the graphic images from that event, which, if you remember, showed mainly blacks, as they were the ones who weren't able to leave the city before the storm hit. That is what I was saying. Where in my post did I come out and even strongly hint the game was racist? Can it be perceived as such? Definitely. Think about RE5 when the game came out. Did it or did it not spark racism talk?

No, this entire event was due to a person who phailed at reading comprehension making a big event out of nothing. Nothing. It's just another post - and just like the rest of my blog posts, I stand by it.

Folks have their opinions - and that's fine - but in the end, the readers aren't paying my salary, the powers-that-be at the paper stand by my op-ed wholeheartedly and no, Zen, I don't have an agenda. Thanks for the hack compliment - but I have absolutely no regrets about the post.

What I find the most interesting is how folks are still talking about this, thus proving my point that race is still a hot, touchy topic that folks are still - STILL having problems coming to terms with. As much progress has been made, there is still so much that needs to be done.

Good on you for standing behind your statement, skillz. Whether I agree or not is irrelevant - letting your work speak for itself speaks a lot as to your relationship with what you let people read.

Fuck political correctness! People take it way to far

I vote for green zombies. lol
