There is one exception where I will abuse. Religous nutcases. Now I strongly beleive that there isnt a god. But I respect other people have religions, and beleive in them. Thats certainly their right.

But it does get on my nerves when the bible bashers come in and start saying theres a god etc. Trouble is, their evidence is so flimsy they only show themselves up.

Other people trying to force their own beleifs? Get stuffed.


I'm an atheist, too. I play often on christian servers because I like the way they're run– they don't tolerate crap. And I don't give them any.

The only time religion comes up is when someone gets on and starts attacking them for their beliefs. I've never seen them start preaching out of the blue– they're there to play Halo.

I got warned once on a christian server. I was TKed, (melee, no accident), the idiot apologized, so I typed "bs tker". I was told "no abreviated cursing." Funny thing is the members whose server it was were saying "crap" when they got killed, but that was ok. BS and crap are really the same thing– excrement. I wasn't annoyed, just amused.

Oh, that says it; anybody using the N-word for any reason has no respect for black people. I know some very nice black people as well as Asian people. I don't care about their looks or what country they are from!


I agree

im afraid im gonna have to confiscate your testicles.

What are you, the Cyber police? lol.

What I dont understand is, I just joined a server called azns only, the map was hang em high and I liked that map, I wasn't going to let a stupid name get in my way from not allowing me to play, I went in, and they team talked plans to get the flag, then I started talking and friendlyfire was on, so when I started talking they started dissing me saying I wasnt asian and calling me mother f'er and all those things, they all tked me and so did my team. Racist in talking? I mean who knows, I couldve been asian I was just talking different from them.

Cops are dicks. You can call one of them "Bub" and get arrested for it. Why? Because they're dicks. And to who said he can make them shut up or leave: So he goes into THEIR server, and make them shut up or leave? SO if I make a room called "I HATE JEWS", someone can come in there and actually make me shut up or leave? And whos place is it to do so? Certainly not any of you. Its called "freedom". Look it up. I can hate who or what ever I want and its nobody's place to try to do something about it. And to the above poster, it really doesnt matter. Who makes it matter? The people who dont like it and cant do a damn thing about it. It. Doesnt. Matter. You. Cant. Change. Anything. Why. Bother. -blam!-ing. And to Anton: I'm not talking about harassment. I'm talking about racism. Its not against the law. You dont have to harrass to be a racist.


if i have said it once i have sed it thousands of times.just because america is a free country,there are limits and responsibilities attached to that freedom.in exampole,there wouldn't be jails or executions if it was truly free,because anarchies are different then democratic republics.true freedom is in america,where noone is legally opressed.should i get out the wikipedia now?or later?

There's racism in Halo PC, but nowhere near as much as Halo 2 on Xbox Live.

I remember on Xbox Live I'd be called a "n***er" every single game, even though I'm white.

yeah,i have been on XBL for as of 22 minutes ago 4 days,and i have already left negative feedback for racism at least 20 times.half of the time,the racists were around one of my friends,who(not to be racist,i swear) sounds black,but i never asked if he is or not,because i am not a racist -blam!- like everyone else.race should never matter,not even if you are trying to point someone out in a crowd. anyone who disagrees is entitled to thier opinion,but what i hate most is when a(once again, not to be racist) black guy calls a whit guy "-blam!-h"i don't care if it is a common term,they don't want racism,you shouldn't be racist,right?

Well Muskets, I really didnt say it in any offensive manner, and I really didnt mean anything by it. And some people act as though white men just showed up in Africa, forced some Africans onto some boats and took off. But the tribe leaders (or whatever they were called over there) traded their people for valuables. I'm not saying it justifies a few hundred years of slavery, just saying it was different than some people think.



dude,2 things wrong here...


1 watch roots
2 that isn't even MOST of the cases,only like 1/19,i think the history book said...looks like history IS good for something

*EDIT*
sorry about double posting,but i thought someone posted in between.

these ppl r not racist, they just use different names than the rest of us to describe frustration at a person, and dont tell me they should stop, u guys should stop. they do not mean anything racist by calling somone a j3w or a n!gg3r, and u guys should respect that.


They may or may not be racist, but they are trying to offend by being racist.

Theres plently of other insults to throw other than childish, stupid remarks about a persons race whom you have no idea of what it is.

Its the current trend. The most insulting thing used to be insulting someones mother. Because if someone did it in the street, most likely youd hit them for saying it. Hence the cowardly way most kids talk online.

But as it became widespread, it didnt have as much effect as people got used to it. Racism is just another tool in a very sad persons coward armoury.

No-one can convince me that 'n.igger, jew', etc etc is not a childish, cowardly thing to say. If you use it, your not mentally mature enough to be playing halo, as its rated mature.

So for all you people that get insulted by people being or trying to be racist, just laugh in the knowlage that the person doing it most likely wouldnt have the balls to do it to your face.

There is a reason political, religious, etc. belief threads aren't allowed on these forums. They often spawn flames.

"i *#@$in hate n1ggers, they suck at everything, they know nothing, they all listen to that annoying rap sh!#, they all act like gangstas and like whites owe them something"
the other racist dude on there replied
"yeah dude, n!ggers suck, K-K-K IS HERE TO STAY"
then the other one chanted
"N!GGER N!GGER GO AWAY"
then the other one said
"WPWW, White Power World Wide!!!!"

*slaps forehead and sighs* PEOPLE! there is a frikin limit to all freedoms!with each freedom comes AT LEAST one more responsibility. if all the freedoms granted in america weren't limited, wo would need no jails,and instead of being a democratic republic,we would be an anarchy.

yeah, we r not totally free. there r laws restricting that freedom, not taking it away, but restricting it.

like for example, u cant say bomb on an airplane and expect to walk away without any charges pressed against u, i forget wat the law is called, but it allows the government to take away freedoms if a concil believes that they r doing the right thing. like they can make u move from your home if they need to put a highway thru your property. now if they do that, theyll give u a fair market price for it all, but u still have to move by law.



assuming this doesnt count as spam,


i am SO GLAD that someone FINALLY understands this!i never thought i would meet someone not ignorant to this law!
