This seems like an extraordinarily poorly thought out idea.

I’m pretty sure there was a line at one point where Harrison Wells says “You know, where I’m from, this is Earth-2", which I always found amusing. The SuperSTARs are a little self-centered.

So evil Reed needs to hang out with Evil Beast. And any other evil doppelgangers that might be hanging about.

Superman has always been against racism of any kind.

Kaine is great. I just don’t want Ben to be like him.

It’s been years and I still don’t know if I like Ryen Russillo or not.

Sadly, this kind of behavior isn’t particularly new on voice-chat of any kind. The only switch that was flipped was the introduction of it; a recurring segment on X-Play was ‘It Came From Xbox-Live’ and some of those sequences date back over 13 years ago. And prior to that, we had offensive text chat on games…

I don’t know if things were better then. The first time I remember running into this type of thing was Modern Warfare 2. People would scream the N-word or homophobic slurs when they were getting killed. I seem to remember at the time on 360 there was some option that let me not hear voice chat at all, outside my…

Me too! My privacy settings make a lot of people mad since they can only message me if they are in my friends list. Otherwise the most grief they can give me is a teabag (not recommended on bf1) or just quit out after attempting to write a message only to have it shut them down and say that it can’t be sent after…

I miss the days before Xbox Live introduced party chat as you’d meet more cool people than not, then everyone was in party chat and in-game chat became a desert of silence.

I know that Nintendo gets a lot of flak for being so backwards about voice chat, but this kind of thing makes it clear why they’ve been hesitant to change.

Yes, this annoys me because they claim it’s not racism that makes them say it, but it is racist in it’s meaning. You screaming the N word when upset is basically stating that “N-words are bad”, or “things that infuriate me”

The scary thing is that in my (limited, anecdotal) experience, people who do this kind of thing truly think they’re not the only ones. It’s very likely that they’ve grown up seeing family and friends use slurs casually, so their problem with “SJWs” isn’t just that we’re uptight, it’s that we’re lying.

I eagerly await the “look, everyone’s done that” defense - no they fucking don’t. I am a white person and I assure you (not you specifically; “you” in the hypothetical sense) that I have never burst into racist screaming when with only other white people or when alone. Never.
When people say “everyone’s done it”…

This kind of shit is why I immediately mute every single human being on voice chat in any online multiplayer game.

Let me remind everyone that Dellor’s free speech wasn’t violated. Toronto Esports has no obligation to give his bigotry a platform. Especially in Canada, where free speech isn’t absolute and there are restrictions on hate speech.

but it’s hard to feel sorry for the guy when he’s being this stupid in front of a massive audience

Good job on dumping his ass, Toronto.

Let’s not pretend or mince words here: people whose only complaint was about prefering classic iterations of characters have not complained in first place, because for most of the time the classic characters were present (Cap, Iron Man, Spiderman, Thor, etc.), only with a new version running around, as a literal bone…

Actually, a lot of people are in favor of two line-ups of the same hero. It allows for everyone to have a character they like.
