black people are just as racist on XBL.olpfan

I'm Black by the way. About 47% (estimated) of the time when I'm playing Halo, CoD4, or anything online for that matter. Once they hear my friends, N* bombs and racial epithets are dropped all over the place.

Maybe I haven't run across the reverse racists online, but I never hear that crap started by anyone else other than a White person. I'm beginning to believe that there are tons of people out there who are racist/prejudice but won't say anything unless there's a veil for them to hide behind.

Now I know that someone will ask if I use the N* bomb and I can honestly say no. So no it's not a fair judgement to say that I use it so it's ok for you to use it, but that's another argument.

So what's the deal with the bigots, and is XBL a good representation of the amount of racists in the U.S.?

I have a couple questions for you? I am white, I can say with confidence that I have never dropped that word in my life. But are you playing in the Underground section on Xbox Live? If so then maybe you need to go somewhere else because you obviously can't handle certain words. Man up dammit, quite being whiny and trying to blame a whole service! There is no lawsuit for you to win. If you don't like what these immature 12 year olds say then go to the family section where there is more langauge moderation. Have you been on internet forums lately? Chat rooms? They are no better. Its the internet! Welcome to hell! ROFL!

Next, since you cannot actually see these players, how do you know they kid dropping the N-bomb is not Black himself? You have no idea what kind of B.s. ensues when someone gets butthurt over words

To be honest with everyone, I really don't get offended by it. I ignore and mute those that I don't want to here. I agree with you, don't let the words offend you. The purpose of this post was to bring it to light. I knew the answers to my questions before I asked them. I wanted to know everyone elses opinions.

because MS doesnt do anything about abuse on XBL typically..... you might hear about one person in 200 being suspended for 24 hours for using offensive terms...

Lots of slurs and racial terms are thrown around on XBL!

I am sorry you've run across the population of gamers who have no respect, or even the hint of sincerity!

That's probably why MS made the avoid gamer + mute system just for those types!

I thought they monitor the rooms and gameplay online, guess not. I remember once I was playing GTA4 when people were making terrorist threats towards Obama and calling him Muslim and every name in the book. It went on for 30mins. One guy went as far as to call the authorities to report. Games like GTA, its hard to see whos actually talking to report em.

YES....Finally somebody raises this on going issue.

I've been a XBOX live member since September and all I ever play is GTA4 and UNO.

Those are my favorites games so far and I spend countless amount of hours online playin them BUT it is wild the amount of racism i face playin on live each day.

As a young black man im starting to get very tired of all of this racism and N-BOMBS all day on live.  

I never forgot the day Obama won the election....It was havoc on Xboxlive ...

"N#$%^  this and N#$%^& that!!! Yall finally Get your N#$%^& president you N$%^&...ETC ETC ETC."

That kind of behavior is unexceptable...And it makes me sick to my stomach!

I've heard some terrible things said while playing games; this includes racism, sexism, and bigotry, not to mention sexual orientation slander. It might sound cliche but if the parents were paying attention to what their kids were up to, maybe the problem wouldn't be so prominent. I'm 25 and there's no way any kid of mine would be allowed to play online without me there knowing what other people could possibly say to them. These games are predominately played at home, and you can't tell me that someone in the house isn't able to hear their child screaming out these terrible things. I'd love to be able to sit online and play one of the more popular games such as COD4 or GOW2 without having to hear some brat sing the latest Neo song or call someone else a Jew, but its not possible anymore. All in all you have to ignore it, and when you do meet some people that can carry on a civilized conversation, add them to your friends list and hope that they're online when you are.

"I'm beginning to believe that there are tons of people out there who are racist/prejudice but won't say anything unless there's a veil for them to hide behind."

 

that is a very good way of putting it. sadly there are many people these days who think its ok to talk crap like that (mainly kids of 10-20), winds me right up. if i hear racism about skin colour or otherwise, or other discrimination, i usually tell them to shut the hell up, followed by reporting them.

(im 17 and white btw)

When I was younger, I wouldn't take too kindly to racist comments, but now I'm just like 'whatever'. I'm entirely oblivious to pretty much any racist comments, especially ones that are heard on XBL, because it's almost laughable to take them seriously. I mean, it's not like any of them are going to take their mic's off, come to my house, and say the same things to my face. Seeing as how I'm 6'4", that wouldn't be very advisable, anyway :) Seriously though, it's really just a matter of ignoring the ignorant and choosing your battles. it's foolish to waste your emotions and energy on half-lives like the majority of people on XBL. As most of you have probably already inferred from my gamercard below, I am, in fact, black. However, I am a first-generation African American (first to be born in the States in my immediate family), and my personality could easily be compared to that of someone of a different race, since I don't act, dress, speak, or share the same interests as a typical African/African American would, and though I've had some acquaintances when I used to live in the U.S. (I currently live in Kuwait), I quite literally don't have any black friends (I have three friends from Sudan, and one from the same place in Africa as me, but he's 1/4 Indian and Australian). So I guess that is why terms like the "n" word don't offend me as much as one would think. Regardless, no matter what "kind" of black person you are, or any other race for that matter, you shouldn't let racist comments and rants get to you like that. Retaliation to to things like that is what keeps the whole damn cycle alive. If every single person on XBL ignored every single negative comment that was made towards them, racist or not, everyone would eventually stop, right? Common sense, really. Something, unfortunately, a great deal of people on this Earth lack sometimes. Fortunately, I'm merely 15 years old, so maybe I will live to see an XBL utopia, if XBL even lasts long enough for that to happen. Wishful thinking? Yeah. Could it happen? Anything can.

After posting earlier I just read the above, and its going to take kids like this to make a change happen. Its nice to see there are 15 year olds (or younger according to many of the posts) that understand the world around them and know that not all people are the same way.

It's the anonymity of it all. The fact that you can turn on a machine and ruin somebody's day with no repercussion gets a lot of the American youth off sadly.

Str8 up TC, Lowkey you absolutly right, Im not racist by far but 85 % of the time I get on and talk wit my friends online too all it takes is one time for me to say somehting like "naw dawg" or "aight" and immidiatly  im being mocked or called a N*. to the point its pointless I just ignore them and I dont care what people wanna get on here or on xbox and say, its always a white person starting that crap I dont care how much you doubt it or want to deny it, you dont even have to be talking to them, they just really feel like that but wont show it untill they get behind closed doors, for example I was in COD4 and the guy seen my name Doe boi when I came in the room and started talking all kinds of crap,  calling me Dooowee boi  .. I know your a f'ing N* .. " I like plaing this game cause I get to kill N****'s, man  the Shi*'s   eally old to the point were its like , it dosent even bother me or my friends no more.. cause its gonna happen I mean just kick their @$$ in whatever game your playing and they'll shut up it never fails, if they dont shut up they'll leave the room, I guess people really think it bothers us that much, when it really dosent, its more annoying now then anything like your little brother or sister saying na..na nana naa... comon, i mean its about to be 2009 tell them to come up with something more creative..and keep it moving. I mean we have only been getting called that for over 500 years so just ignore it.. im not sayin that all white pepople online do it but majority a lot more the any other race, but they dont just do it to black people they mexican , and friends of ones or asian, etc,   and no it is tru we are talking about WHO DOES THE SH** for No reason, I have been playing on xbox for a long time now and I have yet anyone other then a white person come into a room, sayin crap like its time to kill some N****'s , just come in asking if any N****'s are in the room, hear you talking and call you something. no one I know does it or did it, you might say get over it but its the truth.Just be the bigger person,

How did you know it was a white person that said that? I mean you didn't see their face right? At times it can be hard to tell just by their voice if they are using the headset that came with the console. You shouldn't hear things and take it out on somebody because you are offended. There are stupid people in this world and the best thing is to ignore them or block them.

This is so true, If a white guys says nigg* then thats it all hells breaks lose. But if a black guy says cracker people want to look the other way.

Its funny how so many people are so quick to stick up for black people. And want them to have so many rights etc. But when it comes down to a black guy doing somthing they seem to want to just ignore it.

These people have no lifes and dont understand true values!

Black people are just as racist! It just white people seem to get in a hell of alot more sh*t for it. And as for saying america in general is racist ermm do you forget you have a black president?

Alot of black people feel as if they were sh*t on because of what whites did to your ancestors but seriously GET OVER IT!! You guys live a good enough life. You have so many more right then even white people do in their own country.

Our genaration didnt enslave black people so stop trying to take it out on us!!

budane

When is this a "white" country? That thought alone will help keep people seperated. You cannot say get over something until you've walked a day in someone else's shoes. Seriously, I don't think, "White people are evil because of what they've done." I leave that in the past. I judge a person on the actions they take and the words they say.

If you read what I've written, I've mentioned reverse racism. The only difference I see in the two is that when it comes from a Black/Hispanic/Asian/Whatever person is more so retaliation to what someone has already said.

Having a Black president doesn't mean racism is dead. It just means a Black president was elected. I can obviously say this was the least thought out comment on the forum thus far.

"...in their own country" What a joke.

Don't take seriously most of them probably don't mean they just say it because they won't get in trouble.

And reverse racism isn't right either. I thought I'd put that out there as well.

There was also this one time where I told this guy I was from New York and this %$#@ face kid starts saying how he was happy that 9/11 happened and he wish it would happen again. At this point I just blacked out and started tearing this kid a new one, but what I don't understand how he was saying this and no one felt like they were being disrespected considering the fact that this happened to us as a country and not just a state.

Did black people fight the british for independance? Look into what july 4th is about! And you comment about me saying get over it, Well when have you had to walk in the shoes of a slave. Your own people sold slaves to white people. What they did was bad and they should never of done it. Maybe if they had not of then there would be less of this multiculteral cr*p.

 

Oh and having a black pres does mean something. It means white people dont care if he is black or not, It means they dont see race anymore. But a person.

Your a guy fishing for sympathy. And im not going to give you any. Black people contribute to huge amounts of crime, Unenployment and other stuff. Maybe focus on sorting your own people out before you try and sort us out!

I also find it funny that white people always ask why do blacks get offended when they called them the N word. Well hello, when a white person saids it , its most likely to hurt the one its intended to.... And about the CRACKER thing, I have yet to hear someone call another that on LIVE. And I dont understand the rest of your post about rights...

Man 8 out of 10 people will tell you if you start to argue with them, dont sit on here trying to find purpose for somebody doing that sh* its just cause you cant see their face how can you sit their and say someone is whatever color they are when they come in callen some one something racist, they just look for a responce and when they get it they know,  how they know its a black person playing? excatly !

When is this a "white" country? That thought alone will help keep people seperated. You cannot say get over something until you've walked a day in someone else's shoes. Seriously, I don't think, "White people are evil because of what they've done." I leave that in the past. I judge a person on the actions they take and the words they say.

If you read what I've written, I've mentioned reverse racism. The only difference I see in the two is that when it comes from a Black/Hispanic/Asian/Whatever person is more so retaliation to what someone has already said.

Having a Black president doesn't mean racism is dead. It just means a Black president was elected. I can obviously say this was the least thought out comment on the forum thus far.

"...in their own country" What a joke.

Did black people fight the british for independance? Look into what july 4th is about! And you comment about me saying get over it, Well when have you had to walk in the shoes of a slave. Your own people sold slaves to white people. What they did was bad and they should never of done it. Maybe if they had not of then there would be less of this multiculteral cr*p.

 

Oh and having a black pres does mean something. It means white people dont care if he is black or not, It means they dont see race anymore. But a person.

Your a guy fishing for sympathy. And im not going to give you any. Black people contribute to huge amounts of crime, Unenployment and other stuff. Maybe focus on sorting your own people out before you try and sort us out!

So because Obama is pres, that automatically means people are forgetting about race and its done? What about all the cross burnings and taggings of cars with rude remarks about Obama ever since he won? The rest of the post ill let him defend.

[QUOTE="rattler_player"]It goes both ways.......... Joking or not i don't want to be called CRACKER when i enter a game and they hear my voice.....it happens all the time, but yeah i hear it vice versa as well.....Tjeremiah1988

 

This is so true, If a white guys says nigg* then thats it all hells breaks lose. But if a black guy says cracker people want to look the other way.

Its funny how so many people are so quick to stick up for black people. And want them to have so many rights etc. But when it comes down to a black guy doing somthing they seem to want to just ignore it.

These people have no lifes and dont understand true values!

I also find it funny that white people always ask why do blacks get offended when they called them the N word. Well hello, when a white person saids it , its most likely to hurt the one its intended to.... And about the CRACKER thing, I have yet to hear someone call another that on LIVE. And I dont understand the rest of your post about rights...

Ok.Because only white people are racist right.

Racism exists in all aspects, not just towards black people. It's quite annoying, I agree, but you just gotta learn to ignore it. People say things because they think it makes them cool.

Ok.

so that all you can say is OK? At least defend your reason for saying "Its funny how so many people are so quick to stick up for black people. And want them to have so many rights etc. But when it comes down to a black guy doing somthing they seem to want to just ignore it." because I didnt understand it..

Honestly your starting to piss me off. GET OVER IT? How about you let me sell your Mom and sister then force you and your father to work for me sun up till sun down. How ignorant are you to just say get over it, when the closest you've come to this is reading it in a history book. No I won't get over it, and fine if your rascist (Which you probaly/most likely won't say) go ahead fine, but don't start your dumb $%#@ and tell me and a whole culture to get over 400 yrs of oppression. You need to get over yourself.

So you have been a victim of slavery have you? You know white people were slaves also. You need to a little more into your history. Your getting upset about somthing you have no control over. It happend hundreds of years ok. Its not our fault. So why do you guys feel so much anger to white people.

I dont like black ghetto people i will admit that. I dont like the fact black people think everything is owed to them because of what our ancestors did. This stuff really does piss me off. People say the n word on here your right, But come on go have a look at some figures and look at how many crimes are commited on white people by black people and vice versa and then maybe you might shut up!

I've found its a much bigger problem with games kids play (under 18) like Halo 3 - hence I don't play it anymore.

COD4 and COD5 is not nearly as bad - I seldom hear anything bad.

Rainbow 6 is played by alot more by adults, hence I hear almost no racial stuff.

Hence - play less Halo 3 and try to play with friends more rather than strangers.

Its funny you think every single white person behind a pc wouldnt say it to a black guys face. Maybe this is because where you are from white people are the minority and blacks the majority!

But believe it or not i would not care if you was black white yellow or pink. If you said somthing i didnt like and got up in my face i wouldnt think twice about slapping a nut right across your nose. But then talking hard on the internet is pointless we will never meet. And dont give me all that crap about meeting you because i live across the world from you.

I could give a f* about your sympathy. As I've already stated, I don't care about your words or anyone else's for that matter. I guess the White slave owners didn't do any wrong?! Why else would slaves and ex slaves fight against their oppressors?

I'm stating a point that racism still exists, and is prominant on XBL. You act as if white people were here in America before anyone else. Wrong, it goes well past the 4th. Oh wait, Native Americans don't exist I guess.

Anyway, when I talk about you saying get over it I'm not just talking about what the slaves endured, I'm speaking on what Black people have endured even up to sean bell of last year. I'm talking about emmit till, I'm talking about my grandmother who wasn't able to vote until an act was passed, and even then she still wasn't able to vote in fear of being killed by the kkk in mississippi. I'm also talking about my cousin walking down the street and getting arrested because he "fit the description."

I'm fixing my community daily, you're talking to a 25 year old Master's Level Black Man who is gaining his Ph D. Nobody needs you're f*ckin sympathy.

You seem to be turning a blind eye to what's actually going on because you don't have to walk in my shoes. Yeah mutha f*cka, walk in my shoes, my cousins shoes, my grandmothers shoes.

No i would not get in anybodys face. But i have been brought up never to let people walk over me. You have to fight and defend yourself. People will always walk over you if not. But i dont like fighting for no reason. It is pointless.
