It’s somewhat beside the point if the ban was according to their rules or not. If their rule states that a dude can be banned for saying that then their rule is retarded. This is not a government, it’s just an online community centered around a game. It does not need to be managed strictly anymore than you’d manage a group of friends strictly.

I don’t think anyone has actually expressed agreement with Helz getting banned? Rumox and oops both disagreed with what Helz said and both yet said they were complete bitches for banning him.

On the topic of witchhunting: Helz is actually not the only guy to claim ppl baited him into saying things to get him banned. There was a guy in Skwirl (DS.) about a year back who said pretty much the same thing

Tbh this thread feels like its devolved into a pissing match. Is Ozy saying Helz is racist or is he saying that it was right to ban Helz? I can’t even tell. I feel that everything that was to be said has been said though. TL;DR saying culture -> crime is wrong, banning ppl for saying that is retarded.

I think they were not necessarily, at least not initially, out to get you specifically. MU is a community of snowflakes so to them anyone who says what you said would instantly be racist and a reactionary or whatever other term they can come up with in their rebel teenager minds that turns you into an oppressor and they basically yeet you out without even thinking about it.
That being said, I do wonder whether or not the knowledge that you wrote articles for them might have influenced them and actually predisposed them negatively towards you. I’m not necessarily thinking about the mods here but a lot of the people there are actually downright retarded (this is not simply an insult. they simply aren’t that bright) and I would not be surprised at all if they felt envious of what you wrote there. You tend to make references to scientific and psychological concepts when you talk about the game so it makes me wonder if they didn’t feel outclassed and just wanted to ban you for that exact reason.

Black culture doesn’t cause crime. That’s kinda like saying video games promote violence and aggression. It’s just that poor people are more likely to commit crime, and many blacks are poor in America. Saying it’s a part of their culture is a bit meh. You could go as far as arguing that rap encourages ppl to join gangs, and that’s just as ridiculous IMO.
That being said, while I do think it’s a little racist to make that point, banning people for that reason is a huge overreaction IMO. ‘Retarded’ comes to mind as a term
