Hate to do this but kinda gotta agree with OP. Calling someone a retard who actually has autism, whether meant as a joke or not, is highly unfunny and incredibly disrespectful, distasteful and inappropriate no matter the context. Coming from the point of view of someone who has an autistic family member, honestly, have some fucking heart and be the more mature one here instead of resulting to name calling. The fuck are you guys, four years old? Jesus Christ.

He's the victim in this, he's not going to admit what he did wrong. He's going to point out everything that we did to him.

Which is downright pathetic if you ask me. You call us out for being immature, but the moment you do it, it gets ignored. Stay classy Ferratorr, you make a great example of what you're trying to get out of this.

I'll admit things were a little awkward when I read that, but eh, I can take a joke. After all, WWJD?

I've told her this multiple times. She has called me "retard" repeatedly, although most of the times it was in my inbox. I kept telling her, just because we are arguing with each other, I don't resort to calling you a "cunt" or a "bitch" just because you're a woman, you know? So have some basic decency and don't call me "retard". Call me an asshole, tell me to screw myself all you want to but it's really crossing a line to call a person with Autism retard.


She doesn't care though.

This guy knows his shit!

Don't hang round near me, eh vato esé. I'll steal your lawn mower and shit.

Double post

Actually I JUST admitted to that guy that it was probably wrong of me to say that, and I offered to refrain from insulting god or religion here in the future. Nice try with your ASSumptions, Andrea.

It's not my place to tell black people whether they can or cannot use the N word. My quarrel is when I see other white folks doing it like they've earned that right.

I actually do care, and at times I do regret calling you that name, but shall I show everyone the kinds of names you called me first?

Or are you going to ignore that you started everything? When someone hits me, I hit back, harder. If you can't take that then you shouldn't have said anything to me in the first place.

But, you're not going to admit anything, because you're going to ignore what you did like you're doing here.



But it's okay to go on other people's off-sites and call them god awful names that have to be taken down immediately before someone who's looking at the portfolio to see if they're someone they want to hire isn't?

Because that's what this guy did to me. He went on my art portfolio and bashed me on there when I didn't say anything bad to the guy yet. He did that because I refuse to accept his apology for being a dick towards me on this one thread.

He got all butt hurt and called me nasty names. I have the 21 messages still from him, do you want to see what he called me or are you going to still take his side?

So somebody said nigga...

I didn't see it used in a way that would generally be considered offensive.

Not trying to be a dick here but do you get offended when an artist says nigga in a song?

Like does this...

Offend you?

ha ha ha

Basically, this.

Obviously OP could just ignore it (as I've said before), but the fact that people are going out of their way to call someone such derogatory names, regardless of whether the person they are directed towards is autistic or not, is simply classless IMO.

Ferra is here accusing members of being racist, offensive, irresponsible, immature, pricks, assholes, all at the same time asking for members to stop using the word nigga, even if referred to as a joke. Who the fuck is going to pay attention to you? No one.

The funny thing about all this, is the fact that the context of the word was never used in an offensive manner. In fact, it was all for fun/jokes! Just as how people would just say " that's my nigga right there!! (when a player drains a 3, scores a goal, is excited to see a person/character, the list goes on with thousands of examples) or "my nigga Scorpion". What is the problem?

If any member here were to say the word nigga or whatever in an offensive way, that would be serious and most likely lead to skull points or a potential ban. In this case, it wasn't serious. You're the only person here taking it seriously.

First of all, I never called you anything like "bitch" or "cunt". I never said things to insult you for being a woman, like you used the word "retard" which insults me as someone on the Autism spectrum. And secondly, I am one of the most forgiving, non-grudge holding people I know. I had actually already forgiven you and decided to be cool with you on this forum before you talked crap again to me today.

I'm always willing to apologize, admit fault and let things go. Always. I apologize for cussing you out when you made fun of my reaction to that fake image.

I think the implication is that only people of color can use the term.

Or oh I don't know, be the mature adult and walk away? Gee, that's an option too you know. Who the fuck cares what ignorant, weird things were said? You're a regular here, Ice, you should know by now people say stupid shit on these forums every hour on the hour. It doesn't matter. It's miniscule on the scale of shit that should matter to you in your daily life. However, this is not the first time this user has mentioned having autism because it sounds vaguely familiar to me and it's a low blow. You both should just walk the fuck away and stop acting like immature children.

Honestly, I'm embarrassed for both of you right now.

I know they weren't using it seriously, and were using it in the context you were saying, ie "my nigga" as you put it. But I don't think anyone who isn't black should be using the word in ANY context whatsoever. That's my beef.

Idk if you ever been to a hip-hip concert or not but plenty of white people go to them and they all recite the lyrics, which include nigga, what's your opinion on that?

Lol.

I was on the way back from work when I checked this forum on the mobile phone and I saw this kicking off. Pulled over to read this all.

Addicting stuff!!!

Yeah, that KombatKast tomorrow...Reptile's variations. Maybe his first costume will be shown. Maybe they show Kitana in all lovely glory. Poetry in motion. Yeah, that...maybe.

Well, I certainly wouldn't do that. That is sort of a weird gray area though.

Ragequit = immature.

If you're mature, or you just don't care or you care and then leave like a sir.

Other options aren't better that whatever you make upset.

That I didn't know, but you still had the option of being the bigger person and just ignoring or dealing with this privately. You know, most trolls go away if completely ignored.... I know it's hard but it's possible.

So hold up, you have that problem. I don't see anyone else here with that problem. By the way, just because you want something (and over the Internet) we should just all immediately change our way behavior and way of thinking?

I said it too. I'm not white (look at my flag). Cheer up dude, it seems like you're having a rough time in life for you to take such hatred towards everyone here.

You're acting as if saying nigga is a crime. It is not a crime. Just as some users have said, it's mainstream accepted. It depends on the context it's being used.

Just stop. A mod should close this.

You should be, I really couldn't care less.

It's a cop out. I know people who have autism who don't use it when people are picking on them. They actually man up and show everyone how much it doesn't bother them when they're getting picked on.

Yes, I could have ignored the guy, but when you do a low blow and go off to other sites to keep antagonizing the person after they've asked you to stop, what are you going to do? Ignore that? Just delete it? I don't think so. I battle fights the way I want to, and if it makes me look meaner or crueler, let it. I don't let people walk over me and think because they have a problem they're going to walk away from it by using their conditions.

I did that once before, I'm not going to let someone who claims they have something that I can't necessarily prove is true or not use their problems as a means to escape from stuff. He's not a victim, although he's doing a great job playing as one.

Again, I could have ignored this, I should have. But it's fun, and he's doing a great job playing into stuff he could ignore as well. So, be embarrass all you want, it's not like it's going to affect my life. And actually, I did dealt with this problem privately. But, I'm not going to let the whole "going onto MY off-site sites and be a fucking idiot on there" go. Because that was downright wrong on his part and I will continue shoving that around this thread to make people realize he's not some goody-two shoes as he's trying to be.

Remember Ferra, I have stuff to back myself up here if you're going to try to make people think you're the victim in this. You're not, you started it, now you get what you deserve. I don't care if this makes people look down on me, I'm downright pissed off that you're still trying to make yourself look like the victim in this when you are absolutely not whatsoever.
