I agree with earl which is the point I was trying to make.

He does put humor into the site, its not always as grating as racism and honestly if I remember correctly he didn't even throw the racism around that often I think this is the second or third time I've seen him do it? I'm not saying look past the fact that he's racist. Ream the fuck out of him for it but atleast there will be some sort of discussion.

Like I pointed out earlier. Yes there were 13 pages of us calling him a racist piece of shit but despite that there was actually some pretty cool information being shared. Stuff like that doesn't happen as frequently when like earl said most of us are the same person talkin about the same shit with the same ideas.

We need some kind of friction even if it is from someone like inri.

whatever, I think it's kinda shitty to keep the argument going for pages and then ban him for not changing his mind
hi welcome to reddit enjoy your stay.

I'm not even gonna bother with the HEH AT LEAST HE WAS FUNNY...... bullshit which is literally the dumbest I've heard in a very long time and just ask you outright: if a member of your family or a friend suddenly started casually talking to you about MEIN KAMPF and how it was completely right even though that genocide thing was kinda lame, would you tolerate that? would anyone here tolerate that? because, you know, I'd try to talk to them about it first, but not for very long. the point is to verify they're REALLY THIS TERRIBLE and that it's not just a miscommunication or mistake on your part, not to try and "change their mind" and then excommunicate them out of frustration for not being able to do so.

you excommunicate them because they're horrible, obnoxious cysts on society that you don't want to be associated with.

for what it's worth I actually think it's too bad we did lose a good opportunity to really talk about something SUBSTANTIAL, but big deal.

and are we really gonna create our own little fantasy enclave where no one can have social problems or delusions or issues or even different backgrounds? we're all a bunch of first world white boys banishing any gamer who's not like us.
yeah, this is bullshit.

we ban shitty people, and it's actually been AGES since we last did that. even gave this guy FAR more leeway than any other community (except for reddit) would have. the reason we have this group of people here today is not because we're pursuing an active policy of selecting our members based on their whiteness/riches/politics but because the site is basically just a group of people who stayed because they know and like talking to each other.

wow how dare you refuse to be associated with a blatant racist, you elitist piece of shit?? have fun not being intellectually stimulated in your sanctimonious little non-racist country club.

He does put humor into the site, its not always as grating as racism and honestly if I remember correctly he didn't even throw the racism around that often I think this is the second or third time I've seen him do it?
oh, that makes it perfectly cool then hang on I'm unbanning him

good, bc that's not what I said at all and would be a moot point

ya my best friend from childhood is kinda like mince, minus sexism and plus being a hide-in-the-hills gun nut who once got arrested for calling a black guy a "stupid nigger". he's half hispanic. and no, I haven't fucking "excommunicated" him (listen to yourself), because we're actual friends, he's not a bad person despite saying and thinking some terrible things, and this whole racism thing is a pretty recent development he picked up from some imbeciles he was hanging out with.

and my mom says racist stuff a lot, but I only rarely say anything about it because she has bigger problems

it shouldn't be news to us wannabe-worldly dumbos that racism is a symptom of deeper issues, not some isolated intellectual theory that you can reason out of people. perfectly fine, mentally healthy people don't become racists. yeah, but he wouldn't have to be a racist if he'd just bootstrap himself up and be smart like us boring self-righteous boners masturbating over how unsexist and unracist we are!!!!! actually in light of that, maybe you can actually gauge where mince was coming from as misguided and gross as a lot of stuff that he said was

the only way you can justify banning him is if he is actually doing damage to this community, which I don't think he is. the vote seems pretty split: jamie, dada, and konix versus me, farren, dietcoke and possibly bonzi?? it's pretty obvious which side is cooler though
uh yeah this is bullshit. you seem to be mixing together the fact that there's no members anymore with this one isolated incident of a shitty person getting banned. you make it sound as if we actively drove all the members away and wanted the site to consist of its current memberbase.
not actively, passively. but I guess some were actively eliminated

also lol if panda complained about the same shit. he banned members he didn't like that others did (rip jihadjerry). i guess if the person is making a semper games joke then its ok to permaban them, but if the member links to chimpout.org and hates niggers we better tolerate his opinion because he's from latin america and isn't a boring white person.
it doesn't matter what panda did back when but for the record jihadjerry was far more of a detriment to this community than mince ever could be

Quote from: dada and konix
yeah this is bullshit. callin' literal bullshit helldump on this bitch.
you got me, I'm a closet racist who wants to convert this community to racism

I'm not going to get in a big argument about it though, I just think you're being kind of shit. unban mince or you can lick my poop.

I think they were sick of the forums dwindling into inactivity, and they specifically mentioned being irritated with drule's irc presence. idk if I totally buy it but it must have at least contributed to them leaving. hopefully they will be back when eds site or the next SW launches

I typed all of this with one hand btw and it's no wonder people who peck at the keys usually have a ton of grammar and clarity issues too

I'm not a fan of peremptory banning someone on the basis of having the wrong opinions, but when the guy stoops to comments like "number one reason for ghetto rats to vote for  LOLBAMA" without showing any willingness to concede to the idea that he might be wrong it's sort of a justified ban. Even if Inri's thing is to constantly troll and antagonize he crossed the line by making a lot of discriminatory and vehemently hateful posts.

As a side note though I think the discussion could've been handled in a more mature manner by the opposite side of the camp as well. If the guy is stupid enough to adopt the views he presented in this topic I don't think he's going to be smart enough to discern arguments embeded in snarky and ironic post, or in someone plain yelling at him for being a racist piece of crud.

ahahahahahahahahaha

I don't think you understand what it is like to be an american...or atleast an american south of the mason dixon line.
 
I am the only living relative left in my family that has not adopted some sort of racist tendencies and I honestly don't know how I didn't. People are like that and the best you can do is try to push them in the right direction, tell them they're stupid and laugh at them, or ignore them. "Excommunicating" them is not the most mature route. Maybe where you live you can do that shit but I'd be talking to myself most of the time which is what I already got a problem with.

Alls I'm saying is the dude was trolling you and he might actually be a racist or he might just be a really good troll. You guys fed him though and kept the shit going so there is no one to blame but you.
 
If you outcast and ridicule those around you with bad traits and tendencies there will be few, if any people left to scruitinize. Thats part of whats wrong with this place I think. People take themselves too seriously. What battle are you fighting? +1 for civil rights I banned some dumb fuck brazillian who hates black people. You don't want to hear a dumbasses dumb shit? Dumbasses are everywhere but they got shit to share like anybody else and you'd be suprised what they got to offer if even unwittingly.

Panda isn't here and we aren't, what? 19 anymore? Maybe we should start accepting stupider people for what they are (up to a point) and try to educate them instead of banning people left and right who have warped viewpoints.

no one's getting blamed. obviously some of us either know inri better or have a different opinion of him, whatever. he's not another faceless ron paul youtube racist to us, else I don't think any of us would have any problem with him being banned. just for pete's sake DON'T LEAVE!!!! I will end it all and take bonzi buddy with me

then again this is also the same place that defended a certain member when he was discovered to have a hobby of drawing pictures of cartoon children being sodomized, and chastisized chef for "creepy netdetective" behavior moreso than the other person for being a sick, disturbed creep with a disgusting habit so w/e.
I only ever saw the making fun of snarf half but yeah I agree with that, tho none of those peoplewho purportedly chastised chef are probably even here anymore

Quote
also lmao @ jihadjerry being worse than inri. yeah, some guy who at worst was kinda unfunny is totally worth permabanning over a fucking bigot who did nothing but derail topics and annoy people. jesus christ.
that was at least 90% a joke but jihadjerry and pals were part of making this place more and more INTERNET which I definitely don't see as less detrimental than some guy posting stuff absolutely no one here agrees with/would ever agree with

and yes, thankfully we've shed the SA helldump mock internet dummies shtick a long time ago -edit

I think it is/was an SA forum where they'd netsleuth specific hated SA members and make a big thread making fun of em with a bunch of evidence of how furry/autistic/racist/nerdy/pedo/perverted they are. probably called them huge retarded sperging faggots in the process too

so essentially it's like epic pwning internet nerds in a big collaborative circle-jerk (or a "clusterfuck" in internet/jon stewart lingo)

can't be sure since I only ever visited sa maybe 4 times

I don't think you understand what it is like to be an american...or atleast an american south of the mason dixon line.
nah I think it's pretty much everywhere in peripheral america, north and south included

Slightly off-topic, but I imagine Farren striking a dramatic pose and clenching his fist while looking sadly into the skies when he gets to the ellipsis of that statement XD!!

give me one example of you giving this kind of leeway to someone you DIDN'T KNOW. who you didn't have some sort of connection to as a friend or a family member.

I "get" that you sometimes have to ignore stuff like this because it's easier and you can't always expect your fabulous principles to get you anywhere or have any real effect or benefit, but inri isn't a family member whose racist bullshit you have to ignore because you don't want to cause a rift in the family. he's just a random guy who's been doing this sort of thing for years and really doesn't deserve any kind of special protection.

you got me, I'm a closet racist who wants to convert this community to racism

didn't say that.

you're only being apologetic for a blatant racist, that's all.

this is dumb. this isnt the south, nor it is real life. its the internet, and the 21st century, there is no excuse for being a worthless bigot, and no reason or need to keep those kinds of people around.
yeah, basically this.

the server is actually physically not even located in the US, so fuck your stupid family/south/america analogies.
