A touchy issue :(
What do you guys think of all the racism online? Please don't act like you don't ever hear it. I know this is a tough issue for these boards but it does affect Socom2 because it happens during gameplay. What makes it so bad is that people will hide behind their mics and be the person they really are, but walk around in their regular life acting fake. The problem is that I've seen it from most races not just white.

I've played with some really racist people, they make me laugh. I think it is really funny how someone can be so ignorant and talk like a complete moron over the mic.

Yeah, I hear it quite a bit.. It makes the hair stand up on my back how some people can be like that. But this is a big messed up world we live in. I personally take the same approach that dakilla takes. Just laugh at their ignorance, no need to start a race/sex war online. IT IS JUST A GAME!!!!

I agree with you... people like that just make me laugh & I tell them that it's people like them who make me ashamed to be white.
(It's also a reason why one of my in-game messages read: THANK YOU FOR NOT BREEDING!)

Yeah racism is derected towards all people ( jews, blacks, etc...)so Just put the morons on mute or/and kill them,, And you got to remember that this is a video game and people wouldnt act like that in the real world, the people may just be little kids messing around

It was funny for a day or two, then 10 year old kids got on who thought they were all big and bad and started used racial slurs and what not, and then everybody started to get pissed off, including me. It ruins the game cause those people think they know it all and are the best when all they do is talk trash and die first.

my mic doesnt work, so i dont hear the stuff, but its not like they know who any of you guys are, such as in this forum, DaKilla could be a homosexual *giggle* hobo who stole a laptop, but we all "respect" him for his skill in moderating...and being nice, to people, who post....stuff :o
