With all the due respect: I am sorry, but I take offense when people calls me (or implies I am) a racist.
The Giant pissed me off with his assumption, and you did just the same.
Racism is a serious problem and should be kept well out of trivial conversations.
Also (as this seems to be the most quoted part of the Giant's post):
What disgusts me is that TheGiant seems to imply that me finding acceptable to label imaginary creations like Orcs or Goblins inherently Evil makes me the kind of person that could ever even think of doing the same to blacks, or asians, or whatever. Real, actual people.Originally Posted by TheGiant
Sometimes, we just roleplay because it's fun and it's a game. Sometimes we want drama and deep thougt. Sometimes we just accept conventions because the existence of MonstersTM makes it easier to be a HeroTM, and just handwave the slaughter by saying "they were all bad guys anyway".
