Of all the people I knew in DDO almost all of them have remained with their closest friends whenever guild issues arised.  The most likely scenario is 1-2 people left the guild after they found out and people who wanted to be with them followed.  Then you had another group who was friends with the friends and they followed.  Finally you had people who didn't like the new size of the guild and/or the current drama and left.  There is no way half of your guild left directly on the basis of your skin color.

If you have an issue with someone in a separate online area deal with it there.  If you need to address a dev issue take it up with SSG.  You are creating drama for no reason other than "woe is me".  Handle your own business don't bring others into it.  You know who commonly does this shit?  Children.  Show Severlin on the doll where Lynnabel hurt you.

What is your end game?  They will fire an intern who is loved by the community and leaves in a few months anyway?  Possible but it would have to be really bad or mob mentality.  And if you are wrong?  People will know you started drama and avoid you.  At worse account banned.  I encourage anyone to fight battles but you must know which battles you should fight.  Winning a battle doesn't always mean you should have fought it.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

The word "mongrel" has many meanings to different people.  Check out the Urban Dictionary;

mongrel
An annoying person who never shuts the fuck up and gives people their opinion when nobody fucking wants to hear it.

I just assumed she meant that meaning.  Race probably had absolutely nothing to do with any of it

I can't believe this is just getting posted about now.  I love how he left out the part of the discord peeps telling him to actually talk to her.  She specifically said she had no idea it was a racial slur, and apologized.

How long did he get banned for?

You might just be selectively noticing the French bashing.  Trump's election has thrown off the fetters for a great many bigots of all stripes who were biting their tongues for years but now feel liberated and able to speak their minds.

The "A little story" thread where he claimed his guild broke up because he revealed the shocking news that he was black and yet apparently he had played the game with these people for years but never once heard any of them drop a racial slur, was closed.

Racism doesn't typically work like that, in my experience.  I've met a few racists who will try to sneak up on the subject, just to see how I'll react perhaps.  And I've met completely open racists.  If I've ever met a person who is so racist that they would leave a guild in an online game where they never have to even see the other people, and yet is also so circumspect about their racism that it wasn't pretty fucking clear long before, I am unaware of that event.  I'd give them a medal for being such an effective chameleon if I wouldn't prefer to just ignore them and let them wallow in their own pathos.

The thread where he threatened to sue was first closed but later deleted.  I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that a small company cannot be held to the same kinds of standards as a much larger company.  And a privately held company probably again has a lot more freedom in their hiring practices than a publicly held one.  I think that Taimasan is going to have as much success suing SSG as he would if he were to file a discrimination suit against a family owned Chinese restaurant which had only Chinese employees.  "They have no black employees!" probably isn't going to mean much when they have only ~20 employees and couldn't possibly be representative across all ethnic groups even if they tried.  But if he finds a lawyer who disagrees, I'd love to hear the details and enjoy some popcorn as he spends his money on what I think is going to be a fruitless cause.

Tourist goes into a French bistro:

French Waiter:  What can I get you?

Tourist: Tacos, please.

French Waiter:  That's mexican.

Tourist:  Oh.  Pizza, then.

French Waiter:  That's Italian.

Tourist:  Saurkrau, then.

French Waiter:  That's German.

Tourist:  Sigh.  I give up.

French Waiter:  Now you are speaking my language!

I run a small business.  I would bet SSG (and Turbine before them) have no idea what the exact race of all their employees is.  Nor what the race of applicants are.  Because that's not something you should ask on applications or store in a personnel file.  The EEOC heavily discourages asking an applicant's race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, marital status, or number of children.  As a result, I would be surprised if SSG/Turbine even had data on previous applicants/employees.  I would doubt they knew any applicant's race prior to meeting with them.  And it sounds like this individual never even got an interview.

She really called out Titan as "a really stupid person". He's one of the most outspoken fanboi's. If not THE fanboi. And making fun of her own company's forum. Well good luck with that and happy trails.

Most likely... It does sound like my playstyle.. Especially from a few years back..

And the last part.. shit...  lewd comments.. totally me..

People leave our groups because of the kind of chat I bring up.. Actually a few weeks ago.. dude joined the party.. said he didnt have sound and he was turning it up.. before he made it to the quest he said he couldnt  be in a party because of how we were talking.. haha

We have had a guildie so wasted.. put up a raid.. and as soon as it filled he made it in the quest and passed out because he been drinking for a week straight.. other guildie had to log in his acct to move him forward in fot so the raid would start.. that was pretty funny.. he was talking crazy as shit before that.. but when i joined.. shit turned up a few notches.. i love groups like that.. if that guy from #17 wasnt me and was our server.. he wouldve ended up in our guild for sure..

French bashing is always en vogue in the UK.  It's as traditional as wife
beating and pigeon fancying (and fucking one's sister I guess but that's
generally a regional thing i.e. Norfolk, South West).

As for the special snowflake, cry about it on Twitter.  There's a whole
army of SJWs just waiting to be outraged on your behalf.

I agree, and we give back as much as we can to the Rosbeef. ( BTW what William and Harry had to say ? [ or said another way was it interesting ? ] )

It's not always easy to guess who's a Rosfeef and who's a Redneck, so I assume Redneck by default.

Picture perfect intern. Hope SSG realizes what a gem they have.

And on going to I going to cut you comment, it was not a real threat of violence and she did not seem to think she was in any danger, seen by the chat.  I was lashing out because she had been constantly on my case for my grammar for weeks.  Knowing it is a huge pet peeve.  I any case.

Horseshit.

If you threatened violence, in ANY space, then you got what you deserved.

Next time, try using your words like a Big Boy and maybe the "mean girl" won't take you to school like a bitch.
