Prove it? No I will not prove it to you. I prefer to keep my identity and that of hers private from the likes of you on the internet. If you honestly believe I made that up then you can keep thinking that, why I would do such a thing if I was a racist makes no sense however, I never heard of a neo-**** say he was married to a jewish woman in order to win an argument about the word jewish being racist in a forum before, perhaps you have? |

China?! CHINA?! China is a some fine porcelain! The country is... oh. Huh, I guess using the same word for different things means **** all, doesn't it?
Also: 'Asian' has exactly the same problem of referring to 'too much'. There is that giant continent, after all, and although in the US we almost exclusively mean Chinese*/Korean/Japanese, one hop over the pond and the word usually refers to Middle Easterners.
Oh, and friend, this is what happens when you call someone a word and discover that they want to be called some other word (typically it's a more specific word like 'Thai', and not a differently generic word, unless you're dealing with the professionally offended): you shrug and use the other word. Or, you know, don't, respect going two ways and all.
OP, I saw more Chinese players and Japanese players in Rookie Help, being told to go to the appropriate channel. The ISDs had trouble telling the difference, although it's a very easy distinction to make if you make five minutes of effort learning to do so. One young Chinese national flipped his lid when the Japanese macro was popped on him: NO / I AM CHINESE / NOT JP . Poor guy didn't realize he was 'Asian'!

Sad but true. meh, that statement in and of itself is also a stereotype :P I'm Asian, and I don't give two ***** when people mistakenly thought I was from a certain country when I'm not, nor do I hold anything against people from other asian nations.
But as an asian you must totally respect this guy for standing up so hard for asians in general on the internet just now, right?
I mean, what would you people even have done if there were posters on forums just using the O word willy-nilly?? |

The only part of that that has been remotely fulfilled in this thread is this part here where i drew this totally sick picture of a bank robber.
Don't you get it, any term that is descriptive of a persons race or cultural heritage is racist. Regardless of it's intent or common usage in your country of origin.
Using the term white, black, Asian, Oriental, Caucasian, Native American, European, Slavic or anything similar will offend "somebody" somewhere.
We are only allowed to be generic people, from planet Earth, and that's as specific as you can get.
Cultural heritage is just one more example of "Thought Crime". When I check troll in the dictionary, it has a photo shopped picture of you standing somewhere in the vicinity of a point.
Also, I can kill you with my brain. |

yea, many Chinese, especially those from the mainland, still harbors plenty of animosity towards the Japanese. WWII may have ended a long time ago, but it hasn't been THAT long yet. |

Would it be racist if I commented that all I see is a bunch of jelly belly obese white Americans getting upset that some Asian players might be in their game. No citation needed. Just watch any crowd shots from Fanfest for the truth of my observation.

You reported me for what? Using the word orient to describe a place and explaining the history of the word? Using the word african, american or european or calling myself white and pale? For the use of the word westerner??? I am confused. |

And I personally gave a buddy invite to a new japanese player who signed up, so they are out there. |

That depends on your locale. In the UK, Asian refers to people of Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi and so on origin. Since Americans seem to be getting on people's **** lately about the use of "Oriental" I am going for "Far Eastern" these days when trying to refer to someone from that area. |

To try and get this thread back on topic, so is there a big Japanese corp/alliance yet? Do they have any sov? Any of them speaking English on these boards? Or are they not as ... unified as others and join any corp that seems nice to them?

I remember TEST went looking for Japanese recruits before we realized that the "gamer culture" over there is pretty heavy on the e-honor, and they probably would be driven to the point of insanity when they realized just what sort of group they had joined. Also, our propaganda, full of imperial japanese flags and godzilla imagery, probably wouldn't have gone over too well. heh.
If I recall, someone had found a sizable Japanese corp they wanted to approach, but I forget its name. This was a while back. TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |
