I do agree, and I try to make friends with most people on the forums. However, watching someone post racist comments, knowing that I can’t flag them because IMCompetent’s forum software locks the thread (ultimately trolls win) it’s just easier to hit them in the soft spot. I don’t generally agree with racism, but if you go too far I’m not going to be quiet about it.
It does though. Look at this thread, look at it carefully. My post is but one of dozens of hateful comments. That doesn’t justify it, but with moderation the way it is now, I don’t feel remorse for getting mad at someone for being racist by responding with racism.

The BR thing I give you is rampant everywhere.
