@Jeff: "The online gaming community, made up, not mostly, but largely of teenage, stupid males is racist, sexist, homophobic, and generally the worst group of human beings imaginable."

Apparently you follow the "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" mentality...

Perhaps you should be branded Masculo-hetero-adolescento-phobic, and we should have groups working to prevent you from spreading hateful comments like "[they're] the worst group of human beings imaginable." So, like, worse than Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, and Mao?

If I said that GLAAD was made up, not mostly, but largely, of privilege-seeking, heterophobic, thin-skinned, whining homosexuals with entitlement complexes, I would be banned from any site that wasn't 4chan. (Please let me be clear: I'm not accusing anyone of these things.) But you can get away with calling the vast majority of the readers here at WoW.com "the worst group of human beings imaginable?"

Someone explain this to me.
