The last time i checked America won its freedom by defeating the WHOLE BRITISH ARMY with just a bunch of farmers and such. Pretty sad. I love you FatDaddy. :)

'WHY oh WHY' do you people have such a xenophobic attitude towards players who do not speak with an American 'drawl'? I come from Scotland and all I get it is b/s because of my 'accent'! The USA does not rule the world (as much as many of you think it does)! I will reply Yanks!

I'm sorry that you're abused by them :( I have scottish blood in me and it does pain me to see how most of us americans can be so prejudice on such a small feature such as speaking but my advice is just to ignore them, they are simply ignorant they bug you because they want to see your reaction

Benjamin!

Is anyone else annoyed by the fact that the majority (note the majority) of Americans think they are far superior to all other countries just because they apparantly rule the world and look after us all. Well news flash you don't! So stop being ignorant.

yeh you did not beat us with just a bunch of farmers. The French, spanish and the people of the netherlands came in against the British too which ultimately tipped the scale of the war in your favour. Also your "farmers" numbered in the thousands and could overwhelm professional soldiers just by sheer numbers.

Racist...or Countryist

It's closer to racialist.

Lets say about 30% of people on XBL are jerks/tossers/modders/racists etc. Most people who play XBL are American. It makes logical sense that the majority of people who are Jerks/racists etc are going going to be American.

Your mother should have swallowed!

This is the MOST rediculous post I've ever seen in my entire life. I can understand your frustration, people have once thought I was from texas (as I am not) and constantly called me ghey... even though I'm not. It sucked, it ruined the game, as it does when they make fun of someone they don't even know. The whole point of posting this was to say that we must remember that H2 is played EVERYWHERE, not just the US (even though it's probably the majority). It's wrong of us to discrimenate...

But think about it, if you live in Scotland or Iraq or wherever, you could see America as the 'bad guys'. If you live in America, you could think otherwise. EVERY SIDE THINKS ITS RIGHT. People are dumb for making fun of stupid things, but remember it's a game. Everyone has their opinions, and if they make fun of you, why don't you just leave the game? If it bothers you that much, a rank or whatever shouldn't matter as much if you found it in such offense you needed to post about it.

I do agree with the poster in the sense that it's retarded that people do that, but we all have to remember that it's just something that people do. Highschool is the same way, in some regards. IT's a part of life and some people sometimes don't think about how what they say could affect you. I am american, and saying that we 'americans' talk with a 'whatever it was you said it was' is just as stereotypical as saying that everyone in scotland wears kilts because they're all a bunch of drunks. I myself live in the south, and I have no accent. I aslo have no idea how many people actually wear kilts, or actually get drunk in scotland every day, as I have never been. Get over it, life goes on.

The stupid "America rules the world" replies are even more moronic than the original post.

Say stuff like that again, and you won't be for long.
