Now, we all know there's racism in Maplestory. Don't deny it. But why the negitivity towards Asian people? Me, personally, I love Asian people <3 I'm not Asian myself (I'm Libyan/North African/Arabic/Terrorist), and I personally dont get a lot of racist comments. Well, I do get the occasional "NIKKA" and "LOLOLOLLO E4T FRIED CHIKKUNZ". But it doesnt really bother me. But a guildie of mine yesterday was telling the guild how, during LMPQ, some random guy in her party started calling her names, like a 5 letter word that rhymes with SCORE and a 5 letter word that has ITCH in it. She asked him why, and he responded with "Because you're Asian." Now, that was the LAST thing I would expect to hear, but damn. My guildie was really upset, we tried to comfort her, and I know her IRL so I called her (We chatted, etc. etc.), and she seemed really upset over the phone. So, the majority of Maplestory players are Asian, and don't say it's not because we all know it's true. All the non-Asians play World of Warcraft and the older crowd play City of Heroes/Villians, but enough of that. My point is: We all need to embrace each other's race. I <3 Asian people. They gave us Bruce Lee, Awesome House music (Steve Aoki <3), and there's nothing better than Asian food (Especially Thai & Korean food, goddamn that stuff is good). Too Long;Didnt Read Guildie got harassed for being Asian, not cool, I <3 Asians, why so racist? P.S. I hope the Bruce Lee comment isnt racist. I'm a freaking HUGE fan of the guy, have all his movies on DVD, and I do take Karate lessons, and one of the reasons I started was from inspiration of his movies as a little kid.

I disagree. Stop fretting about what someone online said to you. If you can't handle those kind of words over the internet - don't go on it.

I'm black. My favorite soda is Grape, and my favorite food is fried chicken. No lie. But who doesn't like KFC? I just don't like some asians, because a lot of them try too hard to fit in. Be yourself. EDIT: And also. ''WE MADE THIS GAME! YOU RESPECT US! WE MADE THIS CONSOLE! YOU RESPECT US MORE!

Your friend needs to suck it up and realize that some 40 year old male living in his mom's basement was taunting her just because he knew she was weak. If she really felt that bad, as in the verge of tears, tell her to get a life. Just because someone calls you name's on the internet doesn't mean you have to start making a big deal over it.

People who make racist comments against Asians on maple of all places, are usually attention whores. They know there are lots of Asians, so they expect a ton of attention.

Tell your friend to get over it, no way is this thread on this forum going to influence hundreds of thousands of players to change their ways.

Yah seriously it's hardly a big deal, and I did read it all. And I don't like your stereotype about non-asians playing WoW and older kids playing some other game. Because I'm white and I'm 17, and I don't play either of those other games.

It's not only Asian people, they also flame Latin Americans and other people who aren't strictly "WHITE AMERICANPLZZ" Racism isn't funny and I don't think 12 year olds should diss other people just because they're a different race. Plus, GMS is based off of KMS. Without the korean people making it, these racist "non-azn" people wouldn't be here. If they hate Asian people so much, get off maplestory and go play a game that's not "asian." Correct me if I'm wrong, but many game consoles and games are manufactured and stuff in Japan / Other asian countries. (Looks at game box: MADE IN JAPAN) My gosh! (I is part white, so don't say I is racist to white people)
