PSA: Potatoes have feelings too

We are real people with real feelings

Isn't that cute, it thinks its people.

You know, I have never seen this sort of behavior in any other MMORPG in over a decade. No one in WoW saying gnomes or goblins aren't people. No one in Rift saying dwarves aren't people. No players in any MMORPG with multiple race options saying that one of them doesn't bear rights of personhood other than this one game.

Some may give lighthearted jokes about it, which is fine. But too much of a good thing is always bad, and in this case, it really does show how racist some players can be.

dude, youre overly sensitive. why do you get so beat up over "theyre not people"?
It IS a lighthearted joke.

I already told you in another thread sometime ago, people call me giraffe all the time and i dont give a damn.

Oh, and...last time I checked, giraffes werent people.

Get over it. You're overly dramatic over jokes. Nothing racist about it.



PS: comparing the WoW community to this one is really insulting. WoW's community the sh*t dumpster of toxicity.

You're on an EU server. It's not really something you'd understand unless you played a lalafell on an NA server.

Like I've said before, I play on an EU server because it's nowhere near as bad as on NA servers. Lighthearted jokes, that's all it is for the EU community and nothing anywhere near the hatemongering I've seen on what NA servers I've been to.

Good, I'll make sure to keep doing it.

dude im not sure you understand....but I SAW what you just got worked up over ("omg how can you say we are not people. so racist!!!111"). So dont bring up your "hatemongering" examples from NA.
You've given me examples from there too... and they were all lighthearted from what I can tell and hardly different to what popotos get to hear on EU.

Youre overly sensitive. period.

You never played WoW on Alliance did you? Gnomes where the butt end of SO many jokes. People wanted /punt or called them rejected old god creations, etc.
