Hear who? What? Where? How?

In Internet forums, unless otherwise specified (e.g. due to the presence of a quote), one should always assume that a post is directed at the previous poster.

Whenever you are trying to make a bad pun based on your lack of knowledge of idioms expect me to ignore said attempt at humor and prepare to face a serious reply, Zim.

The casual derogatory nature in which this term is used also bothers me, personally. Sad

There is a reason stereotypes exist.

The only religious group I see roaming in space right now are a bunch of Catholics (looks at the Amarr).

I used to see Goons as loveable scamps but the term they came up with for their cabal and used repeatedly in the self congratulation thread was just sickening. And it just gets snipped? Is it really not a big deal with anyone?

Then again people could also learn to be not such a little ***** about things and man up.


you want em to htfu?

lol

imagine the PR disaster it would be (in the stupid US anyways) if the frequency of use of those words getting thrown around here were leaked lol

There are companies and organizations that take ppl and sue them for **** like that on their own. Like the NAACP and ACLU (mind you they dont care if the company ISNT in the US theyll do it anyways)


you don't know a ******* about the ACLU do you?

the ACLU would be suing to defend your right to be as racist shitbag foulmouth as you want.. in the name of free speech.


next time you open your mouth, make sure you don't put your foot in it.

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

From your posts, I would surmise you have anger issues.

Perhaps you need to cool down for a little while Denidil

Not Catholics. Probably Russian Orthodox.

Reasons being the white American and Europeans are mostly Protestant and tend to reject rigid religious hierarchies that zealously control the interpretation of their religions works. (The rigid hierarchy and control is in place to avoid the problem of random crazies pushing random crazy interpretations.) The current Catholic Church has embraced multi-culturalism and multi-ethnicism which doesn't fit well into the pasty white Amarr genotype and attitudes towards racial purity.

The Russians on the other hand, I feel that I can completely stereotype and/or jump to conclusions as being a bit xenophobic towards non-Russians. Plus, Siberia is full of vast untapped natural resources, and Russian history tends to favor authoritarian rule. I would speculate that in the future, the US and China turn the world into a mess with their competition and Russia emerges as the dominant culture war winner/survivor. So, xenophobia, the orthodoxy of the Russian Orthodox church, Siberian resources, authoritarian rule, and a high value on tech, national pride/status and space achievements would make the Russians the natural progenitors of the Amarr dynasty.

Actually the Amarr were formed from a group of Catholic settlers according to their lore.

He's anti-semitic because he released Israeli state secrets about their nuclear weapons program? That's a bit of a stretch.
