and besides making this site look like ass to outsiders, your apparent lack of thinking ablility is nothing more than a waste of oxygen to us people who actually have respect for other people.


seriously jeff has to keep this site running with(what seems to me) very little sponsorship and a handfull of donations (and prob cash from his own pocket) even if you donate $10-20 that isnt going to buy you a book that has all the info this site has to offer and if you cannot respect the wishes of the people who make this possible then you can GTFO

I think everyone here has the ability to police themselves...instead of egging on the next racist comment you see on here, make them feel like the small insignificant sub-par human they are and dont condone it, but dont just let it go either.

Eventually it will be uncool to be racist and it will go away...moderators can control this to a point, but no one wants to be suppress any freedoms on here.

Eh, I agree with most of you. The "------ Month" think was a bit too far. I've said the word a bit myself, but it's always been jokingly and 99% of the time I've just been referring to a dumbass cracker. I also don't refer too many people to the site because of the racial slurs (don't want them to think I'm a dumbass racist) and am afraid to view the site at work because I do work with black people. The few that I do recommend this site to, I make sure to warn them of the racism and -----talking :P I think a majority of the people here aren't truly racist, so no policing should be necessary, but maybe the ones that constantly are a nuisance can get a warning? Warning would probably be sufficient.

It's a good site, and I used to frequent HT a lot until I found this one, but the slurs do get a bit annoying.

Well since no one wants to hear me, a seperate section?


Ogrish.com had one, then made it so only selected people can see it

representing the South of the border HMT crew here in Tijuana.

i think racist post here are most of the time just for fun.... and we can take that and even make fun of it.. but some people do it just to be offensive and they should get temp ban.
