“Everyone knows I’ve been struggling all my life. I believe that every human being is equal, but one has to fight hard all the time to maintain that equality.

-Roberto Clemente

Those words are functionally the same.

You did no such thing. You immediately called me a racist for enjoying hockey then defended a sport with actual problems with racist fans.

Assumptions on top of assumptions on top of more assumptions. You’re really bad at this, troll.

Here’s how it looks to the people who make these decisions.

It’s typically not on the devs at all and it’s certainly not specific to the video game industry. The decisions to do/not do come from people wearing suits. They meet with other people in suits to determine when the meeting for the preliminary discussions of more meetings will take place. By the time the green light…

You’re clearly trying to start something from nothing. Also, the nhl had never had to explicitly ban Nazi flags. Take your trolling elsewhere.

Also hockey fans aren’t the ones flying Nazi flags at games.

Wow, that’s a leap. The only reason one can’t like a game populated by flopping fairies is racism?

I harbor no ill will toward the game, that’d be silly. I’m merely not interested in watching the sport. The sensitive feelings in this thread really caught me by surprise. Maybe io9 would have had a better response? It was just a damn joke.

Based on this being first thread I’ve ever started on Kinja? People respond, so I reply. Some people call that conversation. I was certainly hoping for a more fun one. I regret the people I ended up with.

I was aiming for somewhere between a couple chuckles and some friendly Kinja banter. I had always expected either the NFL or Nascar to be home to the most volatile knee-jerk rageaholics. I guess I learned something this weekend.

Still here, Reggie? Before I was an 11 year old girl, now I’m a drunk teenager. You seem like a really nice guy.

Hockey

Sorry, no I did not that time. I did however on a subsequent reply when I read that person’s comment history. I suppose I was a bit dishonest there.

Lol ur like so totes a qt3.14. But seriously, this is a very strange thing to be bothered by.

I really don’t know how to respond to that. Did that sound good as you typed it?

Acceptable courses of action:

I’m responding because the vitriol has become interesting. I’m curious why so many comments from alleged adults involve name-calling. I’m curious why such a silly statement has so many feathers ruffled. I’m curious why people are repeating other peoples’ comments about the original post being so meaningless. If it’s…

Why do the French know me?
