    I've heard that but never had the chance to get on one obviously, I've seen alot of decent /v/ tagged players too, just there are a fair few exceptionally irritating fuckers that have clearly come from that neck of the woods that taint your reputation. I think it's just the unpredictable tolerated grieving that puts me off the idea, but each to their own.

    Anyway, I'm sure if you went round to Professor Chomsky's office and started grieving it with a hammer he probably wouldn't be best pleased, and he's a pretty big proponent of the old An to the R K. It's not all about rioting and disgusting lentil dishes ;)

    I'm pretty sure you automatically sign up to the forum when you make an account with the same name and password (which is awesome by the way), cos I just winged it seeing it'd be the case and it worked.

    AnRK: Send me a PM at some point. I'm sure we can get you into the /v/ servers to take a look. Usually the /v/ people you see are people who've been kicked for being asstwats, which is unfortunate.

    More unnecessary publicity for a server that is (or was) meant for /v/. Bringing in lots of people who don't understand /v/ or the culture kinda ruins the whole point of the server as we're not meant to give a shit what other people who play this game think of us.

    Trying to give /v/ a better reputation, why.

    I'll just slip this in here too, now that I'm at a desktop, in response to those who are actually offended by "AllBlacksShouldDie" and such.



    If someone things all blacks should die, maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong (most likely wrong) but it's a point of view, unless he's directing something straight towards you talking about how he's going to 'kill you for being a dirty nigger' and blatantly outright threatening you, there is no problem.

    It's funny how people embrace freedom of speech but are quick to restrict what they don't enjoy, or the 'bad sides' of it. Freedom of speech, freedom to speak your mind, and say what you think no matter how insane is not just a luxury it's a necessity in the world we live in, even if you think for example that 9/11 was cool and Jews should strike again. Now that is not to be mistaken with thinking that saying something like that shouldn't get you on some sort of watchlist (or all of them, shit), or that it shouldn't get you laughed out by the community in general, however to say that an actual punishment should be attributed directly towards this sort of expression of opinion is ridiculous in and of itself, you shouldn't for example fine or send people to jail for saying 'all niggers should die' and you shouldn't ban someone for saying it (whether in jest or dead serious), however they probably shouldn't last long within the community and if they are serious it's only a matter of time for them to run into someone they deem a 'nigger' and threaten them, thus actually getting them banned, but when/if that time comes it's a different thing.

    That's my 2 cents anyway, communities, not policy should fix community problems like this.

    e:A bit late given how many times I have posted in this thread, but they've all been by phone and my phone has a tendency to fuck all my typing up.
