lol There was a mountain named after a bunch of stars?

Also, in the other guy's defense, maybe your dad should've been a little less black...

Context of the word is very important.
N***** is a sketchy word, but to be honest, considering the weight it can carry, you obviously can't bombard a black person with it if you're not black, even if the intentions aren't hateful.

Do I use the word? Haha, yes, yes I do, but like I said, context, intention, and appropriateness.

Also, that guy was an idiot to say the least, he should tell that story in Harlem or something.

Wow, why would you even do something like that? I believe people get your intentions through the censored word.

Toonlink, that ain't funny.
It doesn't make you hard to write nigger on an internet forum to show you're hard.

Please, please go up to DMX or someone and call him a nigger, please. Film it too, I'd LOVE to see what happens.

EDIT: np Zen. xD

While would I ever call someone a ******?

All I'm saying is, why is it any better to call someone *****? It has the exact same intentions...
Also, I never used the word hatefully, or in any context whatsoever...

Also Teran, I'll give your trolling a 6/10. Above average, but heavily flawed. Why would I try to prove I'm "hard" on a brawl forum... >....>

edit: You win this time, SOLID...But I'll include you...You're dumb. Where have I displayed anything in this thread with bad intentions? I have done nothing but make obvious sarcastic jokes...

Seriously, just leave.
I have very close black friends, and I don't like kids being ***** to black people because they have some barrier of protection called the internet.

"Your dad should be less black"

That's ****ing trolling supreme. Sorry, but that's just offensive and ridiculous, and NOT something you say to someone you don't know.

I may say that to my close black friends, but you don't know Zen at all, so that joke is extremely inappropriate and you should just stop.

Because I'm healthy and Caucasian? Profile moar.

Edit: People keep beating me...
Making harmless jokes at a subject shows comfort with it. If the situation truly offends you that hard, you, my friend, are still held back by racial barriers...

Also, please flame me more on this part, but at my school we have like four black kids. The one of them that's my friend lets me call him *** Nigz ^^

Thought so about your censor dodge........ anyways......

DTL, stop being racist. Most forums ban for that type of ****, I don't know the exact rules on SWF for it. Also obvious attempt to troll is obvious.

Now back to the subject at hand:

Was the mountain really called ****** mountain? Or was the guy just trying to be a ****?

I don't think you guys understand racism >...>
Making a black joke does not equal racist
Saying a word without emotion behind it does not equal racist
Have a problem with a certain ethnicity of people as a people equals racist ^^

This is (temporarily? permanently?) closed and infractions are pending. I leave all infraction decisions in User Blogs up to the discretion of Jam Stunna.

The OP asked me to re-open this, so I am. But infractions will be swift and severe should this get out of hand again.

I think he was just being a **** because we actually came across the mountain by chance and it was just titled "Barney Ford"

The way this got out of hand is just..ugh.

Anyways, wow, that's not cool. I mean as much as me and my friends lol about the state of racism, that was uncalled for and stupid. Kinda what happens when there's no diversity, you get stupid. =/

Course one could argue I'm biased because basically none of my friends irl are white.

Everyone is bias during things like this, in fact almsot everyone is bias period. It's human nature to favor something, hence why debates start. no one wins a debate people jsut walk away with different views than when they walked in.

obvious trolling is effing stupid. that made me angry at how ******** DTL was being, whether he was Fo' real, or just plain stupid.

It's scary to me how ignorant people can be sometimes.

Sorry to hear about that, man. Stuff like that just shouldn't be happening at all.

I vote both, but anyways.

I've never considered the word bad per say, but it relies heavily on who you say it to.
A few of my friends who are black call me that sometimes, but it's cuz we're friends. I, myself, don't say it, but that's me. I see that it's only used if you actually know the person and I seen that color does play a factor sometimes, even with friends.

But it can be taken very offensively when some random person says it just to insult. In the case that was described, it was very offensive and racist to say and that was just messed up.

i'm sorry to hear that zen.
i'm black as well so i kinda know how you felt being called that.

but as rel38 said it's in what context it's said, who are you saying it to, and how was it said.
among friends it may be alright and sometimes funny but in your situation it sounded pretty racist.

In what state did this happen?
Colorado.


~yeah context is key. Also ****ah and ****er have a difference when it comes to aquaintances. Im use to some friends using ****ah in a "social" manner, but if they call me ****ER then they are getting slapped. On the other hand if that mountain dude used -AH instead of -ER it would hardly be a difference.
