Banned For Racism - CaLeB- - Jun 28, 2011
Was on the Valve Maps #1 server a bit ago and was banned for a "racist" spray by Womb Raider. Although he warned about the spiderman spray to the general public, I was unaware that he was an admin and assumed he was just a player who was annoyed by it. Thus, I did not perceive it as an admin warning.
Anyway, in my opinion, I don't perceive the picture as racially offending. It's not intended to be racist. The humor of it comes from spiderman wearing a suit, the quote poking fun at "being fresh". The spray uses the slang version of the n-word. I guess I don't see it as racist because I come from a city where black people are the majority and hear it used as a general term for a person.
I know I've been only banned for a day. All I'm trying to say is that I hope the admins out there don't see this as a first offense. I'm a regular and have been following Drunken F00l's servers since AdminOp days. I'm usually quiet when gaming and never start any trouble. If I was properly aware that Womb Raider was an admin, I would've saw it as a warning and would've removed/changed my spray immediately. Sorry for the inconvenience...

Could someone explain that image/quote to me?

Even if I was just a regular player that was annoyed by it, why would you go and re-spray it?
If you break a rule you need a time-out. Racism isn't allowed on the server; humorous or not.
Not trying to sound like a dick, that's just the way it is.
The rules should be followed whether or not there's an admin present.

There is no inherent racism in the term "nigger" as even black people themself use it from time to time. Especially "nigga" (with an "a" instead of an "er") emphasizes the less serious aspect of this word.
Pollitically Correct bullshit here.

Yeah, because that matters. Racism is the intent and attitude behind what you're saying not the specific words used.
Also, he's not racist he has a colored TV.
