Tonight on the TT Wurm I saw something that surprised me - and I'm not talking about the DPS on Amber Wurm.  There were people making racist jokes in /say chat on the my stack while we were waiting for the spawn.  I know we have to wait around for the event and people get bored easily but there is no excuse for this... you have no idea of the ethnicity of the people you have been playing with on a daily basis for the last few months and I don't want anyone feeling uncomfortable because someone thinks 'black jokes' are funny

I'm going to say this once, so everyone is clear:
There is no place for racist*, or homophobic, or any other derogatory remarks directed at people based on their gender in this guild.  If you want to spout that crap go find another guild to play with.

If I see it again you will get one warning then you're out and for what it's worth I will also report your account to Anet.    I expect at least some measure of ethical behaviour from the people I game with.  Please show respect for other people, no matter who they are.

Okay, consider the Riot Act read.  Now let's get back to having fun


*unless you're
a) a human making Char jokes,
b) a Charr making human jokes,
c) a Norn, Charr, Human or Sylvari making Asura jokes
d) Anyone at all making jokes about Sylvari
e) Norn jokes aren't funny


P.S. Just in case you're wondering I am Caucasian.  I just despise bigots.

I couldn't agree more, well spoken Stormwolf.
