So. Here's the thing. I looked at that link. I'm not sure Tush actually paid any attention to either the content or the context of the piece. It's clearly a joke(in rather poor taste) about how people are morons in word association games. The N-Word, in that context is being used as an example of how a word substitution game can be subverted by people on the internet. And in a way showing how stupid such a game really is.

I get the distinct impression Tush saw the N-word and immediately got offended. While that is his right, he shouldn't expect an apology about racism when no one was actually being racist.

So Tush... if the very mention of the N-Word... even in completely non-racist context makes you angry... I'd like to suggest that maybe the internet isn't for you.

Oh, fuck off.

Get off the internet if you can't handle a little bit of foul language. The image I posted was a classic example of messing with sentences, which Venico and I were doing. Nowhere did I say that I hated black people or some stupid shit like that. I'm really disappointed that you thought it was necessary to extend your needless outrage at me to the entirety of this region, and I don't think anyone else is impressed either.

That's just the beginning. You then compare me to a Nazi for even posting a link with the word "nigger" in it? Are you kidding me? I should be the one that's offended here. Christ.

I'm just going to add that total censorship is a really lazy way of combating racism. you're acting like Osiris is some haven for bigots because one member posted one link containg dumbassery. admittedely it's a vile word, but you're really making a mountain out of a molehill.

Yeah, you're pretty much being rude now. Legitimate arguments have been made that no racism in Osiris exists and you have made no real argument that it does, other than your one example of Koth posting a link as a (admittedly, in poor taste) joke. You can't just dismiss every counter-argument made against your position as one of dismissal and denial. So to conclude: Is Koth crude: probably, Is Koth uncouth: definitely. Is Koth a racist: No way.

My apologies for the insult, Koth

Thank-you, yes this seems to be the most astute interpretation of events. I, doubtless, overreacted, but when NAZI haters start posting the same things NAZI's would.

Impressions are constantly being made, Koth and you certainly haven't wasted this one either. Since apologies are not to be expected I'll consider myself off the hook as well. If you want to avoid being compared to a NAZI in the future, I suggest you don't behave like one even in parody.

Don't think anyone but you confused Koth with a NAZI.

Tush, you can't just call someone a Nazi. I agree that the joke wasn't in good taste, I personally feel like the N-Word is one of those words that shouldn't be used but calling someone a Nazi is almost if not more worse. Telling Tush to fuck off isn't great either. I get that him calling Koth a Nazi was pretty crappy, but it doesn't help.

Don't worry Wombat, I am indeed crass and uncouth. We're good, yo.

You're not off the hook with me, Tush. I cannot in good taste feel bad about my attitude towards you while you maintain your position on callin' people Nazis.

I never called anyone a NAZI
somebody acted like one and I got confused and irritated by it

Koth was never personally a racist
just in unrepentantly poor taste
