I don't want to be tempted to return, so I ask for the account to be completely jaked. It's one thing to be harassed by racist jackasses in PMs... It's another thing being harassed for shedding light on the racist jackasses. If you're going to bend the rules to protect racist jackasses, then I'd just as soon you delete my account immediately.
I know I'll take heat because people hate these kinds of threads... But whatever.
So in retrun to all the "good riddance" cat calls this is sure to evoke, I say 'have a nice life.'

So he used YOUR tactic and you don't like it? [Reply]

uh, the lesson here is ,don't be making racial slurs to GET a reaction and then turn around and get upset when the reaction is bigger than you anticipated when your racist tendencies are witnessed for what they are. [Reply]

Racist tendencies? You've gotta be kidding me. You and I have never, and I mean never, agreed on one thing. I'll say this much though. I think when folks call you some of the names that they do, they have done much worse than Otter has...I see this as a witch hunt. [Reply]
I'm ignorant on all this drama, but if Otter's only "racial" comment was calling TJ, who, apparently is of latin descent, a Mexican, then I don't see how that could be racist. Most of my heritage is English. So, if someone calls me englishman, should I be offended? [Reply]

You are right. They usually use bigoted and/or misogynist names. If they ever did that in a PM, and they haven't been that stupid, you'd bet I'd get their asses fried.
If the 'moderators' choose to ignore personal attacks on the board that is one thing...if they choose to ignore them being sent directly to an individual off of the board that is quite another.
It sounds like both parties are at fault here...however one should not be USING a racist remark to get a reaction and then whining when it turns out worse than he expected. [Reply]
