Congratz Josh
I wondered this too.... seems outright unfair by the looks of the existing *locked* thread. He didn't say anything offensive.

I don't think was about what Josh said, it was where the thread was going. If you see the last post, it was getting sexual.
Bit of a hypocrite with a name like yours. Bravewell, am offended. *ban request*
That just made no sense.
Is this thread about the game in any way, or is this off topic? :|
It is about the new asian character in the game and how offensive and stereotypical she is. We should just ask for EA to get rid of the character she is too stereotypical to be in the game or discussed on the forums.- I flagged it, because as you can see my response in that "report a town" thread I'm offended by everything. Kidding, it wasn't me.
As I've said in about 10 posts already, I find Josh funny/amusing...I appreciate his humor (most of the time). As for the comment above about Asian women being constantly "fetishized", that may be true...but I think Josh basically said he was happy about the new character, because he is attracted to Asian women. Isn't it more of a compliment rather than an insult?
Edit: I think the new character is OK. Maybe I will feel different after the episode on Sunday. I just think there are at least 100 other memorable characters they could have added into the game rather than some random girl nobody will remember from the episode. zicoboo wrote:

So, "Because Asian women are constantly fetishized" we should lock Josh's thread just because he likes an Asian character in a game? Thinks she's cute? Thinks she's sexy? Ridiculous.
It wasn't even me who got annoyed in that thread, I ignored his sexual comments and said I liked the character too. It was another lady who was annoyed, and I understand where she is coming from. I don't see why we should have to put up with the fetish related comments on a forum like this. Besides, the 'stereotype' about the feet thing is just stupid, the character is Japanese, Chinese were the ones to bind their feet. So, if he really liked Asian people besides in a sexual way he wouldn't lump them all together and say something like that.
Exactly, thank you.
I'll just say that most of you may not feel offended by it, but most of you don't get to decide what is and isn't offensive for asian women. That is my stance and I'm sticking with it. If you have a problem with that stance, feel free to find a senior moderator or a forum admin, and let them know how you feel.Bravewall wrote:

You hear that guys you cannot use the words: " FOOT , FEET , FETISH, ASIANS , WOMEN, GIRLS" in the same thread on these forums anymore. Probably shouldn't even use the word FETISH ever.- I see nobody still got what Troll means. After all this time josh trolled all of you. I have been active only from august and have seen so much trolling by him i get it. Lmao (not referring to spAnser, the OP of course, only to people that dont get his trolling)
edit. Fetish! We need a trophies for fetishes! Bravewall wrote:

It might just be me but for a mod you seem touchy, defensive and severely lacking in confidence.
Try stepping back and taking a breath it helps. Being fair and impartial shouldnt be so stressful. Relax
Nobody is against you, we just need consistency in enforcement.- ^ That and the thread started to contain comments about orgasms which probably breaks the age rule for this forum. Most forums have a PG-13 rating. I personally find that the sexualisation of women was a bit uncalled for. Why is it that when a female character appears, people treat them as objects - as if the only thing that they can be related to is sex?
I also find the phrase 'I bet shes wild behind the scenes' offensive. If I were Kumiko, I would be shocked and scared. And as part of the female population, I find it rude for someone to be talking about so openly it with other people. Sure, there is a freedom of speech, and everyone is entitled to their own thoughts no matter what they are, but posting it on a public forum for discussion by everyone? Such conversations should be limited to bars and men's football nights. Similarly, bridal shower conversations should be limited to bridal showers or the like. Not all topics can be discussed in an open environment. DamnedDonuts wrote:

Consistency... Yep that is really what I am looking for, but honestly I still don't see how someone can combine all the different posts into the thread and make a complaint about asians and feet when they were never used in the same post or in reply to each other. Just because the post started about Josh and asian characters and the thread derailed about feet has nothing to do with asians feet at all, so I still don't see how someone got offended unless they were offended about feet. Because none of the feet posts even mentioned asians at all.chippers29775 wrote:
