Discussion about race

[AdamBa17]

can we please ensure that the mods of this site are relaxed when handing out warnings about "racial talk".

i received a warning about racial talk from the topic "nba 2k11 soundtrack is terrible", which is ridiculous because apparently im supposed to have attacked my own race, and the post that was referenced to me as the reason for this warning had no connotations of any kind in it.

i think some people are touchy about the issue and quick to warn people and start getting defensive, playing the "race card" and getting upset over nothing. im a mixed race man who identies with being black more than white. and i have been warned about attacking a race, which i can only assume they mean was blacks.

ridiculous.

Take this down dude. I feel like you might get an infraction just for starting this. Just trying to help you out. I once got an infraction cause I called a guy ignorant. It wasn't malicious it was just using the word.

Re: Discussion about race

To add, race discussion (regardless if you deem it innocent) is a topic that OS avoids all together because it's been an issue in the past (same as politics, etc). So to prevent this getting users into trouble, its closed down.
