so what was up?

[QUOTE=Ermac20;36314208]so what was up?[/QUOTE] Not facepunch

I'm not going to bother reading through several pages for an answer, so just why is searching disabled for blue members? It doesn't really help to solve the problem of making redundant threads on accident.

Garry is busy making a new search thingy, that works a lot better. Plus, who cares, it's disabled, and asking for a why doesn't enable it.

[QUOTE=Cam00;36317516]Not much of a question, more of a plea for advice. Someone from Nigeria wants to buy my eBay item, they have sent through the money and it's status is pending; I get the money once the item is delivered. If I was silly enough to send the item, what would prevent the buyer from saying "nope, didn't get it" and getting their money back? I'm not planning to do this, unless there is a definite way that I would receive the money no matter if the buyer lies.[/QUOTE] Ask us more about Ebay

[QUOTE=garry;36315379]I upgraded the database[/QUOTE] which means no slowpunch for at least a week right?

[QUOTE=Chernobyl426;36320385]I hate most black people. No, that isn't because they are black. Though I will probably get banned for racism. Do you know why I hate most black people? 1. They try to act tougher than white men and take every opportunity to try to show superiority over white men. 2. They are usually more obnoxious than white men and will act offensively and vulgar just because they can and it won't be labeled racist or uncalled for. One sided? Yes. 3. A lot of them are abusive and destructive 4. Yeah, it's pretty well-known that they are more likely to join gangs and get somebody hurt. Are all black people like that? No. Do I hate the entire race? No. I hate the ones that act out obnoxiously and such. Yes, white people do it too but not at the extent that many black people do. Hopefully, you guys understand what I'm saying instead of flipping out and saying RACIST! HE'S A RACIST BECAUSE HE DOESN'T LIKE MAJORITY OF BLACK PEOPLE![/QUOTE] [QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;36295726]Man.. I really don't like racial stereotypes and I used to not really believe some of them were based upon truths and facts.... But Christ, some people. I swear. They exist only to support that stereotype. You know that black racist stereotype that black people cause most of the crimes in the US? Well tonight's local news really supported that claim. All the news stories they had that night with mugshots and pictures of the suspects/arrested people... All of them. All of them were black. And not white mixed with black. I mean [I]black.[/I] Not a single white person. ... .... ..... I didn't know what to think. Even my dad agreed with me when I said "Wow, some of these people really give support to the racial stereotypes..."[/QUOTE] Woah why aren't these guys banned

probably because fast threads

I'm not a racist guys I just hate most black people big difference

[QUOTE=CheeseMan;36321091]I'm not a racist guys I just hate most black people big difference[/QUOTE] Uhh... How did my post make me racist? The news really did have all black people, I didn't just imagine it. I just said it was those people who supported the racist stereotype, and I really didn't like that. I don't like stereotypes, and the people that support it by doing what the common stereotype says. There's plenty of white people who support white people stereotypes, too. Same for every other race and nationality. Just because you see it and it's extremely obvious, doesn't make you racist.

You can dislike a culture, or in this case, a group of people without being racist. He obviously has no feelings that because he is white (assuming) that he is obviously supreme to the rest of the world.

[QUOTE=CheeseMan;36321166]The "it's getting really hard to not believe that most black people are thieves and criminals" platform is a little suspicious, that said the post U quoted was in response to what's his name[/quote] Nooo, that's not what I said at all. All I said is that those are the kind of people that make people think that way, and that's not right. Like I said, plenty of other people do this for every other nationality. Like there used to be a bunch of mexican people who lived on our street that stuffed 80% of their family into one household, one of them having to live in the garage and didn't speak a word of English. Supporting stereotype! What do you want me to say, you want me to lie and say they aren't supporting it? Be blind and pretend they don't exist? That's just burying the truth, really.

I never said that at all in any context. There's been many news days with nothing but white people. And some with nothing but hispanics (which might I add also has a common troublemaker stereotype). Every race and nationality has their fair share of stupid people. In no way do I find my race superior to any other. I see us all as equal. I have even supported the American stereotype by eating a bunch of fatty fast food, being overweight and having my fair share of mindless nationalism (aka GAWD BLESS AMURRICA) myself. Sure that makes me seem like a hypocrite, saying I hate it when people support stereotypes when I've done it myself but by God I got really angry at myself when I realized I really was being a hypocrite like that. Bottom line, seriously. I think you're just trying to pull things out of your posterior to get me banned.

Tbh your post wasn't even that bad I just threw it in because it seemed like STGYM was developing a little culture of these kinds of posts. Especially since that shmuck's post got like, 3 agrees and nobody called him out until now.

I think. (It's hard when everyone says "he" for two separate people instead of saying usernames, you know? Especially when it's on the same or similar subject...) Alright, I feel better now since you said it wasn't that bad. I thought you were going to try to tear me to shreds like someone tried to before when I told the story about that Mexican family. I apologize if I seemed overly defensive.

These dont look like questions about the forums.
