A down flaw of this community, pretty important!
Many and many times me and friends got kicked and sworn from servers because we were called Jews, Israelis, sub human being and stuff. For the racists over there, you guys are making me sick.

Re: The community of this game is obnoxious and racist
I feel for you, Wildfire. I know anti-semitism is growing very much in Europe, especially among young and uneducated fools. I won't go into details about the reasons, but you can be sure that this doesn't go noticed or unanswered by people like me when I witness such cheap bums spouting their hate. It's just sad 
I'll put some extra attention on that, maybe we catch these people quickly and eject them from the network.
Always be sure to take a screenshot of the chat (F10 key) and the data sheet of the player (ALT+Click on the name).

Re: The community of this game is obnoxious and racist
Hey WildFire,
I am a Laddermodertor for tmf. I had much trouble there cause of racism (in any type), insults, hate campaigns etc.
In any case I tried to get the people who are affected togeather and talk about it. Most cases were harmless, just simple clan vs. ex-member conflicts, but there were also harder cases like this of you now.
Racism is a point at which the discussion stops finally. Noone , I think, can teach these people to do better, no one can pretend them from acting as they do. But, those actors can be punished within the borders that nadeo has.
But there is a lack of proovments and I my opinion also a lack of interest (or a lack of time) by nadeo to really have a look at those issues.
So I hope for you that anyone at nadeo will care, but I think you are really "left alone" there... I feel sorry for you...
It would help if you would take care of what TStar mentoined. Take screenshots.

Re: The community of this game is obnoxious and racist
Thanks for the replies, I know I got a bit far with the thread's title, but it was because of anger. The upside part is that the rest of the community (not the haters) is just a group of good sports.
Anyway next time someone will piss me off, I'll just take a picture.
Thanks

Here's another moron: http://i.imgur.com/QpWkM.jpg
Not sure what caused his outburst. But GG UV-Gaming. Great sportsmanship from a "progaming" team.
I know in some games people's accounts are banned for this kind of behaviour.. Maybe banning here too will help stop this stupidity.

Re: A down flaw of this community, pretty important!
Unfortunately, it's not just the shootmania community, this happens everywhere and it is sad. Just recently I noticed some SM players making jokes about blacks, but what can you do? People are going to be ignorant and it happens everywhere, it's unfortunate, but it's just something we have to deal with. All you can do really is ignore them and not associate with people like that.

Well, I took the liberty of bringing this to UV's sponsors' press contacts. Let's see if Alienware,Dell and others want to be associated with that sort of crap.
Re: A down flaw of this community, pretty important!
@JayTac, I personally don't take such great offence to such things, but there are people who are greatly offended by such comments and might stop playing the game if they can't enjoy it. Like the OP, I've also received racist comments like these quite a bit in SM. In TM whenever such a thing occurred we confronted the team management and ET admins directly which always, at the very least, brought an end to such behaviour from the player/s involved.
@TStar: I sent a message to an ESL admin and UV-Gaming and got a prompt reply from UV-Gaming saying "action has been taken" but none from the ESL. But good thinking!
I think that whenever we see such behavior, the best way to stop it is to publicise it and bring it to the attention of league organisers or team management. So unless this annoys people here, I'll keep taking screenshots of such behaviour and posting it here.
