b4 i begin i would like 2 thank all mods who know and follow thier own rules.
i would like 2 also thank ryoko for setting up these forums.
and last but not least i would like 2 thank my fellow srfers for giving me a pleasant experiance here.

some1 was banned without just cause.
whilst waiting to be unbanned, i have been attempting to convince your admin suicide girl that she banned me for no reason.

i am currently attempting an appeal 2 reason, but i doubt that will work
after thinking about it i have come2 the conclusion that my ban must be made public.

the term sg used when banning me was "racism", i am going 2 say this now I am not a racist. review ALL my recent and old post, and you will see [unless you lack the proper education such as european or world history] that NONE of my post or threads are racist.

i am going 2 get 2 the point: SG banned me for racism, i am barotix.
this is what has been happening behind closed doors. I now understand what Jex was talking about.

here is the private convo:

i dont understand why i was banned.
all i know is i was banned for rascism.

i have a sent a pm 2 ryoko explaining why this ban was unjust and unfair.
and why the word rascism was misused.

i want my ban raised.

ty, yours truly barotix


talking about how hitler and the SS were the "smartest n1ggas on the planet" cannot be taken as anything other than that. if you don't want to come across as a racist, then watch what you say more carefully. once i see that this PM has been recieved, this account will also be banned.

[qoute="wikipedia"]Legal definition
According to UN International Conventions, "the term "racial discrimination" shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, color, descent, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life." [2] This definition does not make any difference between prosecutions based on ethnicity and race, in part because the distinction between the ethnicity and race remains debatable among anthropologists [3] According to British law, racial group means "any group of people who are defined by reference to their race, colour, nationality (including citizenship) or ethnic or national origin" [9].

[edit] Sociological Definitions
Some sociologists have defined racism as a system of group privilege. In Portraits of White Racism David Wellman (1993) has defined racism as "culturally sanctioned beliefs, which, regardless of intentions involved, defend the advantages whites have because of the subordinated position of racial minorities,” (Wellman 1993: x). Sociologists Noel Cazenave and Darlene Alvarez Maddern define racism as “...a highly organized system of 'race'-based group privilege that operates at every level of society and is held together by a sophisticated ideology of color/'race' supremacy. Racist systems include, but cannot be reduced to, racial bigotry,” (Cazenave and Maddern 1999: 42). Sociologist and former American Sociological Association president Joe R. Feagin argues that the United States can be characterized as a "total racist society" because racism is used to organize every social institution (Feagin 2000, p. 16). This stands in contrast to a definition that presumes racism to be an irrational form of bigotry that is not connected to the organization of social structure.

Quote:
Ideology
As an ideology, racism existed during the 19th century as "scientific racism", which attempted to provide a racial classification of humanity[10]. Although such racist ideologies have been widely discredited after World War II and the Holocaust, the phenomena of racism and of racial discrimination have remained widespread all over the world.
Racism has been a motivating factor in social discrimination, racial segregation, hate speech and violence (such as pogroms, genocides and ethnic cleansings). Despite the persistence of racial stereotypes, humor and epithets in much everyday language, racial discrimination is illegal in many countries. Some politicians have practiced race baiting in an attempt to win votes.


Quote:
Racial discrimination is treating people differently through a process of social division into categories not necessarily related to "race". Racial segregation policies may officialize it, but it is also often exerted without being legalized.
Researchers, including Sendhil Mullainathan and Marianne Bertrand, at the MIT and the University of Chicago found in a 2003 study that there was widespread discrimination in the workplace against job applicants whose names were merely perceived as "sounding black". These applicants were 50% less likely than candidates perceived as having "white-sounding names" to receive callbacks for interviews. The researchers view these results as strong evidence of unconscious biases rooted in the United States' long history of discrimination (i.e. Jim Crow laws, etc.)[11]


Quote:
Antisemitism can be considered a specific case of racism when targeting Jews, although scholars argue whether it should be considered a sui generis specie or not. According to this line of thought, jews are considered a "race" of people. Antisemitism has been described as "The longest hatred", with documented instances of antisemitism going back several thousand years.
Scholars distinguish traditional, religious antisemitism, which derives from Christian accusation of the deicide (cleared at the Second Vatican Council in 1965), with 19th-20th centuries racial antisemitism, which ultimately led to the Holocaust in which about 6 million European Jews, 1.5 million of them children, were systematically murdered. See also Holocaust denial.
In the Middle Ages Iberian peninsula, the system of limpieza de sangre (cleanliness of blood) ostracized New Christians (offspring of Sephardic Jews who were forced to convert to Catholicism) from the rest of society. In Portugal, the legal distinction between New and Old Christians was ended in 1772.
Expelled en masse from England, France, Spain and most other Western European countries at various times, and persecuted in Germany in the 14th century, many Jews accepted Casimir III's invitation to settle in Polish-controlled areas of Eastern Europe. The traditional measures of keeping the Russian Empire free of Jews failed when the main territory of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was annexed during the Partitions of Poland. As large Jewish populations were taken over by Russia, Catherine II established the Pale of Settlement in 1791. The official segregation of the Russian Jews was compounded by waves of pogroms and oppressive legislation such as the 1882 May Laws and led to mass emigration and political activism.
Modern European antisemitism has its origin in 19th century pseudo-scientific theories that viewed the Jewish people as entirely different from the Aryan, or Indo-European, populations. In this view, Jews are not opposed on account of their religion, but on account of their supposed hereditary or genetic racial characteristics. The growth of nationalism in many countries viewed Jews as a separate and often "alien" nation within the countries in which Jews resided. Such sentiments were exposed in the Dreyfus affair in 1890s France. See also Rootless cosmopolitanism.
The rise of views of Jews as a malevolent "race" generated antisemitic conspiracy theories that Jews, as a group, were plotting to control or otherwise influence the world. From the early infamous Russian literary hoax, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, published by the Tsar's secret police, a key element of antisemitic thought has been that Jews influence or control the world.
In France, home to Europe’s largest population of Muslims — about 6 million — as well as the continent’s largest community of Jews, about 600,000, anti-Jewish violence, property destruction, and racist language has been wildly increasing over the last several years and French-Jews are worried more every month that it will spiral even higher. Jewish leaders perceive as intensifying anti-Semitism in France, mainly among Muslims of Arab or African heritage, but also growing among Caribbean islanders from former colonies.[48]
In Russia, the government of Vladimir Putin takes an official stand against antisemitism, while some movements parties and groups are explicitly antisemitic. In January 2005, a group of 15 Duma members demanded that Judaism and Jewish organizations be banned from Russia.[49] In June, 500 prominent Russians, including some 20 members of the nationalist Rodina party, demanded that the state prosecutor investigate ancient Jewish texts as "anti-Russian" and ban Judaism. An investigation was in fact launched, but halted after an international outcry.[50]
Antisemitic incidents have ranged from random acts of violence against Jews to the detonation of explosives in Jewish communities, to high-profile cases such as the stabbing of eight Russian Jews in a Moscow synagogue on January 11, 2006 by a man with neo-Nazi ties.



if those definitions are not enough 2 prove my point then i dont know what will.


that is a definition of rascism.
the way you used it is not listed.
i think you misunderstood the term.

plz unban me, you obviously should know by now you made a simple mistake, caused by a minor misunderstanding.

also i have a link of major ww2 military operations.

i dont mean any disrespect but
i believe you may have wanted 2 ban me previously but at the time had no justified reason 2 ban, and at the first chance took the liberty 2 raise the ban hammer.

you most likey thought that me being a 16 year old teenager would not understand the term rascism.

if you wish 2 ban me next time at least use something reasonable

yours truly, barotix.

plz unban me
i am begging you, i OBVIOUSLY am NOT rascist.



srf i am now pleading with ya'll convince SG i am not racist.
srf is the only place with comprehensive guides on every build i can imagine.

srf is the perfect place 4 any1 that plays sro.

being banned because an admin does not understand what a word means is unfair.

ty for your time srf

UN does not control SRF, socialists do not run SRF (or at least I don't think so), Ryoko and SG admins SRF, they decide what is racist and what is not.

Also, based off of your definitions:

Quote:
Racism has been a motivating factor in social discrimination, racial segregation, hate speech and violence (such as pogroms, genocides and ethnic cleansings).


Quote:
Racist systems include, but cannot be reduced to, racial bigotry

sadly enough I have to agree with you on this

I got warned too, but I'm not going to fight it
right or wrong sui is in charge





@sui

What Baro said about hitler is true to an extent.
Hitler did build an amazing empire from nothing.
He did become chancellor just because of his speaking skills,
and yes he abused his power.

But if you think about it Hitler was the single greatest military leader ever born.

It's okay to express his opinion, but from SG's quote he said it the wrong way, in a racist way.

Also, Caesar>Hitler by a long shot.

I won't get into the debate, but that quote sounds like ban material. The same thing could be said with much more neutral terms lol.

Edit: But I wouldn't agree with a ban on someone's opinion of Hitler. That's their business. I think the way it was expressed is what earns a ban.

You will NOT be unbanned. You were banned for a reason, that reason was justified.

So long.
