    You're being racist....to say that just because i am a american that i am a boorish person? That is generalizing an entire group of people and then insulting them based them being a part of that group. It's an extremely childish thing to say and is only counterproductive in the sense that you claim that more respect is what we need while at the same time hypocritically stating such things as this. I am reporting you for harassing me based on racist generalized statements. No seriously i'm reporting you.

    Yes, it is. Read the word in between the hyphens very carefully.

    As a fellow American, there is nothing (nationality does not equate race I'm afraid) racist in their comment at all. Please educate yourself on the meaning of such words and contextual use before you sling around such ignorance.

    You got generalizing correct though, but you really need to stop with the hyperbole that's so rampant in this damn country anymore.

    Also these new rules are too vague and seem easily abuse-able in favor of people that nitpick and complain too much.

    I'll basically be treating the game as a single player game even more so than I already have been doing.
