    You're all being really racist. You act like Russia was the only place effected by the ban...what, China doesn't matter?


    Furthermore, if you accuse Cryptic of being racist, and say that CO has racist content, then if you continue to play CO you're supporting racism. So hey, up to you... do you support racism, or are you ready to stop being stupid?


    EDIT: Also, independence day had nothing to do with america vs russia... it was america vs the british empire.

    Yeah, but we don't wanna make a bad guy with a British accent, that's politically incorrect these days.

    That, and nobody is topping Bakura from Yu-gi-oh Abridged.

    bad guys with british accents are politically incorrect? ....then why do I remember almost every villian ever having some form of british accent... and the rest had german accents.... and then whatever's left over is Nicolas Cage and John Travolta.

    Who said any of this was racist?
    OH that's right, it was you trying to put a ridiculous spin on this and blow it even more out of proportion than it already is.

    Actually, I'm trying to get others to stop blowing it out of proportion. I commend your attempt at trying to start more drama though, but I'm not interested, so no thank you.

    The only "blowing out of proportion" is that people are assuming the OP and people posting regarding the poor timing are doing anything more than pointing out that Cryptic could have spent a second to think about what is happening in the forums and how the content could possibly relate to it, intended or not. As someone with a Russian friend who is genuinely upset that they might lose access to the game, I DID see some issue with the timing, as did they. This isn't anything to do with race, or some conspiracy involving Cryptic hating Russians. We merely ask that Cryptic be more aware, even if they are unable to post things regarding the Region Ban and how we've seen nothing positive in terms of a result.

    Good job trying to bring racism into it, Smoochan. You've accomplished so much.

    I, ah, had no idea Bakura was into that sort of thing... :wink:

    I didn't bring the racism, I just pointed it out. Finding racism is never an accomplishment, only getting rid of it is.

    Nationalism, not racism. Let's keep our bigotry straight, folks.
