I am normally trying to be a positive influence, but this thread is shocking.

Being racist, sexist, homophobic or any other sort of bigoted is not okay. Believing that anyone has the right to deny others the most basic respect is not okay. It does not magically become more okay by happening in a video game. All people involved are still real people. The reaction of the victim has no relevance to the fact that this behaviour is not okay.

I am disgusted by those of you telling others to just get over it. You are part of the problem. You should be ashamed. Real people made the real decision to treat other real people like dirt, and instead of being concerned that there are people out there who think other people are worth nothing more than dirt, you are telling the victims to be silent, even mocking them. You are supporting and perpetuating the abuse.
