[QUOTE=LagAttack;925199]I quickly wrote some python code to parse the 373 games I have played in since returning to SC2Mafia.
For simplicity I just calculated usages of the n-word - since almost every player that thinks racism is fun uses that slur often
For each player I played with I calculated:
[LIST]
[*] The number of games I've played with them
[*] The number of games in which they used the slur
[*] The total number of times they used the slur
[/LIST]
And for each game I counted the number of times the slur was used in the game.
Here are the results:
[SIZE=3][B]Game Statistics[/B][/SIZE]
[LIST]
[*] 62.2% (232/373) games do not have the slur in them at all
[*] 90.8% (339/373) games have the slur used 4 or less times in total among all players over the course of the game
[*] Only 4.3% (16/373) games have the slur used more than 10 times in total
[/LIST]
[SIZE=3][B]Player Statistics[/B][/SIZE]
[LIST]
[*] 89.4% (693/775) of the players I've played with have literally NEVER used the word
[*] 96.0% (744/775) of the players have used the word only 4 times or less over ALL games I've played with them
[*] That bottom of the barrel 4.0% contributes 93.9% (1491/1588 ) of the usages of the word
[*] When you filter out players whom I've played less than 5 games with, there are only 14 players who have used the word more than 10 times
[*] These 14 "regulars" contribute 67.6% (1074/1588 ) of the usages usages of the word
[/LIST]
Now this was just looking at a single (albeit by far the most common) slur - but all manners of slurs likely follow a very similar distribution.
[B][SIZE=4]SC2 Mafia's racism problems are NOT due to a [I]widespread[/I] problem with the "culture" of the game. The problems are NOT due to new players or infrequent players that use the game as a playground to grief. The problems are created and perpetuated by a very small but [I]very[/I] vocal group of regular players that push the idea that using slurs and casual racism is okay. It's not.[/SIZE][/B]
I've seen these people claim that "everyone" uses slurs or racism in mafia - so fighting the problem isn't possible. That's simply not true. The group that contribute the large majority of the problem isn't even large enough to fill a full 15 player lobby.[/QUOTE]
yo wtf again?? HOW R U MOR XTRA THN ME?!?
i mea, it's a prtty smrt ide to jst se thes ppl as shtbags. xtra shity with whpped crem on top.
im gonna laugh so hard when the next two people i report for racism get punished, xDD

Besides. Everyone trolls a little, but if you try to see things from "their" perspective - to be honest, some people just have so much noise in their head that they have to "prove" they're not racist by calling you a racist. I don't think it's totally malicious. And even if it is, what good is it to take it so seriously? If you just think of people as idiots first and foremost and only then assholes, even if you're wrong, who cares? At least you're not letting some dumb thing someone said on the Internet get to you needlessly.[/QUOTE]
[COLOR="#00FF00"]nothing lmao[/COLOR]
Dude I don’t give a shit about anything, why NOT do this to myself??

[QUOTE=Oberon;925105]You know it might be better if you calmed down a little. People on this site (which, the problem is with the entire Internet, not just this site in particular) aren't out to get you specifically; there is some malice involved but most of it is just plain old stupidity.[/QUOTE]
Nah dude I’ve a right to be pissed, and I’ll keep on being a jackass just to spite the assholes in Skwirl (no longer publicly on this site) who bullied us both for about a year but are fucking hunky-dory on this site because they’re all fucking moderators

I honestly don’t care anymore and am just following the general trend the U.S. is going in. This site is becoming another Pokemon Showdown, I know because I just received my first infraction and am about to get banned.
I don’t give a shit, mods just do your fucking thing pls
I don’t know why it’s so hard for ppl to accept that others have different values. Fuck this thread and the shitstorm it will cause. Fuck Marshmallow Marsh for negative-repping me because “I’m anti-politics yet am aggressive on that very matter.”
