In the last fortnight I've noticed racist remarks.

- IT IS ILLEGAL

- IT IS INTOLERABLE

- THESE VIEWS ARE SPOUTED BY 2 PEOPLE ON HERE

- NO ONE ELSE HAS SUPPORT FOR THEIR VIEWS

- MANY PEOPLE HAVE OBJECTED, MANY QUITE STRONGLY (and I believe many more have tried to ignore these 2)

I think the problem is that the few posters on here that actually are racist are just incredibly thick, so talking to them doesn't really help...

Then there's people like ER, who are just old and boring and need the attention <ok>
 
What's going on here then?

I go away for a couple of days and the place has turned into a KKK fest!

Is ER being a **** again? You can forgive him to an extent. He belongs to a generation when calling black people fuzzy wuzzies was acceptable. That's not to say it's acceptable of course.

No Place For Racism.
 
Alright Dev? Great to see Neil picking up his first piece of silverware. Hope it's the first of many.

****e game but Motherwell set out to play negatively and the weather didn't help. Three nil was about right.

I would have taken 1-0 but i'm delighted for Lenny and the team. Nice to have some silverware in the cabinet again.
 
I think Huth may be the main bone of contention to be fair.

True but there's no point in getting annoyed with Huth, he's just an idiot. There are at least a couple of other posters who are proud racists...
 
On the EDL thread a couple of weeks ago some stuff was said that shouldn't be allowed...Can't be arsed to name them as it'll just stir it all up again but they'll know who they are <ok>
 
Why not add certain words to the swear filter?

That way they cant be said and just have an instant chat box bad if used in there. A permanent one.

people will soon get the message.

I stated that Sir Trevor was black.......Fact

I stated blacks cannot swim........Fact (I meant in my eyes to Olympic or top standard, not that they cannot actually swim)

I stated that Sir Trevor reads from an autocue.......Fact

How does that(in some peoples eyes), make me racist?

But peadophillia subjects, pornographic photo links are totally acceptable???

Do i complain about those threads????? NO

Like a couple of people have allready stated.

Look at the thread title, if you like it, look at it
If you don't, then don't ****ing look at it.
 
I think a lot of what happens on GC is simply people being dicks. Making comments designed to offend because they think it is funny in some way. There are some genuinely racist and offensive comments, but most comments have the opposite to the desired effect. People do not think the commentator is clever or funny, they just think they are a dick. In many ways this makes it easy to ignore behaviour and let the GC police itself, to a degree, and although I have not been here that long, I am yet to come across a thread where the concensus was offensive.

Good site, many great posters. Lets hope it always stays that way.

Too many dicks in that, Re-write it with some tits, ass and fanny please <ok>
 
I have always felt that racist remarks largely are only regarded as such by people that are expecting to be offended. Even in ordinary conversation it is easy to be judged by some as being offensive, when the opposite is actually being intended by the speaker.
In other words what is offensive to one is not neccessarily offensive to another. So in my book there is no clear and precise way of knowing if what you are saying is going to be offensive to someone. How do you prove intent? Apparently you don't have to........it is no wonder that society as a whole is in such a bad way.
 
Personally I don't mind a comment if it's in context or genuinely funny, that goes for pretty much everything including racial 'criticism'. The problem is when you have a couple of pricks trying to be controversial solely for the attention, and worst of all not even making me laugh in the process.

Basically what you're trying to say is, Huth is a prick?
