I made a game with my mate for a joke a little while ago, and I was considering uploading it so it could be downloaded from DC, But i'm worried that if i do some might view it as racist, and i might insult someone.
I'll give you a brief summary of the plot:
You are a Rastafarian from jamaica, but whilst you were away, and evil witchdoctor/cyclops/thingy cast a curse on the land of jamaica, turning all it's inhabitants into mindless heart eatin' rastas. You must confront this witchdoctor/cyclops/thingy, but before you do you must gain magical powers by smoking 100 magical spliffs, which give you the ability to shoot lasers and fly. Whilst collecting the spliffs you must avoid touching the possesed rastas or they will kill you.
I'm sure a lot of you would find this game very enjoyable to play, but I do not want to insult anyone. Can you all tell me your opinions on whether this is suitable?

Go for it. We had a similar discussion a while ago about a game with a rocket nigger or something, I think the concensus was that anyone who complains is a pussy so you get to punch them.
I think JP is from Hawaii, which isn't Jamaica per se but I always used to get the two confused as a child. So, what I'm saying is, if JP is me as a child living in Hawaii he may be offended because he would think he was living in Jamaica. So I'd play it safe.
Well, I dont approve the harsh way you guys put things.
However submit the game and simply make it clear in the text what the game is about so people know what they are downloading. Personally Im not easy to offend so dont worry about me.
Why would anyone be offended? Rastas are cool, I'd love to be a rasta. Plus Rastafarian isn't really a race, the original Rastafarianism movement was religion based, but it's gone way past that now, it pretty much connotes regular dreadlocked stoner dudes now. Like Christianity, nobody properly follows that anymore.
How did you confuse those two Teapot? One is a collection of islands to the west of the US, and the other is one island to the south east of the US. That's like me confusing New Zealand with Australia, or greenland.
If there was anything that only caucasians could win, everyone would complain; where as if it were any other race, it would be completely fine, which is absolute BS if you ask me. Everyone screams for "equality", which just doesn't exist anymore. Like if a black comedian makes fun a white ppl, it's funny; where if a white comedian makes a joke about black ppl, it's racist. Such a truly F-ed up society we live in today.
Ben, don't worry so much about offending people. Most of the folks here are European sissyboys, anyway. What are they going to do? Cry? Watch some soccer, maybe? They're probably too occupied with their shirtless Prince William make-out fantasies to get riled up about some computer game. Oh, and the Aussies will leave you alone as long as you don't have any livestock to rape or children to beat. Trust me, nobody's going to get upset about any lame attempts at stereotypical humor around here.
I personally am not racist i have a mate from uni whos black n shes ACE, infact ive had quite a few freidns from different races, however, shabadage i cant help but agreeing with shabadage in some ways. And yes, i believe there would be an uproar if there was MOWO why its not music of mixed origin. Also, many will notice in black-superstars/rappers songs they use the term 'nigger' which i dont actually understand? lol it looks like im racist but im not,infact in many respects i believe black and chinese females are more attractive than white females.
Andy Rooney said on "60 Minutes" a few weeks back:
I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens... Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door.
I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason... that is why there are no girls allowed.. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE?
I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.
When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of Probability.
I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!
My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours. I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines.
I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.
We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document; and open to their interpretations.
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.
I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building.
It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say "NO!"
I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!
I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa; so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else.
Digital Dreams: Justin's music is of black origin, namely Micheal Jackson.
Didn't anyone else confuse Jamica and Hawaii when they were young? Actually I asked some my friends and the punched me or gave me funny looks. Maybe I am the only one.

This is the most DISGUSTING thing I've EVER HEARD!!!
If you do this, you shall be STRUCK DOWN by our lord and saviour!
Here in Malaysia, most of the scholarships, loans & higher educations are actually strongly biased towards the majority. Mainly since the minorities are the richest people in the country. But nobody really seems to complain. If they went with full equality here, the majority would be hacking apart their rich minority bosses .
Long live racism! Though, I dunno... this whole racism thing seems to be most harsh in the Western countries, most likely because blacks have this violent, sexist culture (and show it off a lot) and whites just have well.. something else. Culture should be eliminated!

There.. I added a warning to it. Should push up the downloads & ratings a bit. Want me to put it on the front page?

It would make sense in Malay’s case because the majority would be poor. 58% Malaysian, 24% Chinese, 8% Indian, and 10% other.
White people would be in the "Other" section, and I don't think any white people would live in Malaysia unless they were rich, in which case they wouldn't need gov. sponsorship.
Steve Zissou: Anne-Marie, do all the interns get Glocks?
LOL. 1 pound's worth about RM 8 and $1 is worth RM 3.82 or so. You could survive on bland food for RM 1 per day. An English beggar could just move here and live forever
