OUT OF CHARACTER BOARD

[Reya Serra]

They can play.  They just can't play well.

[Gravedigger]

Speedy is gonna be legit....

[Talon]

I was talking about pre-Reya/year 1

[¿PapaPancho?]

Speedy is gonna be legit....

Legitely pissed off ...

[GM Franchise]

Zeus is going to be balancing his budget for seasons to come it appears...

[Gravedigger]

Legitely pissed off ...

Do you have an issue with Yosemite Sam, Sylvester, Wile E Coyote, Foghorn Leghorn, or Elmer Fudd?

By the theory that Speedy made Mexicans look bad you could say all those characters made Americans look evil and stupid...

[T-Bonizzle]

That and Speedy was pretty badass back in the day.

I was talking about pre-Reya/year 1

I had three good players, actually.

I think his issue and probably the player's is that of being totally stereotyped.

You're too kind.

Yeah ... about that Elmer Fudd ....

also Yosemite Sam was a caricature of the south ... of course he was made to look people bad.

[Gravedigger]

That's not Elmer Fudd.

Plus, I'd say Foghorn Leghorn was more of a Southern stereotype.

Maybe it's because I was raised in the North within a tolerant family, but I never saw these caricatures as racist or bigoted, but I didn't experience any culture other than my own for the most part (I live in one of the whitest areas in the nation.)

[Reya Serra]

Leghorn was Southern.  Yosemite Sam was Southwestern.  Fudd was your sterotypical backwoods hunter type (Appalachian?)

[¿PapaPancho?]

That's not Elmer Fudd.

No that's Uncle Tom Fudd ... same gimmick ... different shade ...

[Gravedigger]

Disney had some evil shit too.... Ever heard of "Song of the South"?

I think this has gotten blown way out of proportion. I picked a PR tagline because of a cartoon mouse and his last name was Gonzalez (might have been spelled with s instead of z in the cartoons), but I feel like it's turned into me having to defend myself and prove I'm not a racist....

If it is really a big deal I'll ask Ian if I can change it....

[Reya Serra]

I figured that's why you did it in the first place.  Not a big deal to me I just don't think it'll go over well with the player is all.

I *think* Pancho is just giving you a little bit of a hard time for the lulz, but I could be wrong.
