Party Skins Racist? LC
 

As one player at my table was calling another player at my table a "nigga", I noticed that all the player icons depict white people.

Shouldn't the player have the options to choose a white, black, Asian, or Eskimo picture? I'd be pissed if I weren't white.

I was playing on a 2/4 table at Party once and this topic came up. This one guy was saying that there should be options to have other races. Another guy kept calling him a "liberal puke" and it turned into a full on debate. The guy that wanted a diverse table freaked out and totally went on tilt. Classic!

That's pretty funny. The Eurobet dealer is black.

Re: Party Skins Racist? LC
 

nah, that is clearly a tan white dude, possibly italian or greek. check the hair

Re: Party Skins Racist? LC
 

I have always said the dealer looks like the Sugarman aka Sugar Ray Leonard. Now why does Party only have a black dealer you draw your own conclusions. I suspect the programmer was a foreigner who still views America in this Beaver Cleaver world......

So you post this worthless retarded crap and you think labeling it "lp" excuses you from responses like I don't give a [censored].

look up idiot dip [censored] and let me know if you like the picture.

Re: Party Skins Racist? LC
 

I always thought it was funny (in an odd way, not funny, haha) that planetpoker only had a black guy at the stud table and not at hold'em. Such a racist site! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Having trouble from telling the letter "p" from "c" again. Don't worry it will come. Hooked on phonics will eventually straighten you out.

What kind of idiot clicks on a post with "racism" and "LC" in the subject and then takes the time to write that he doesn't care.

If you don't give a [censored], go to the next post.

I don't open every 2001FP post and write "I don't give a [censored]" at the end of the post.

....but being a "non-conformist" I guess you have to look for the "non-conformist" approach to everything......even things you don't care about.

"Look it up in the dictionary" jokes were old by the 3rd grade. Idiot. It's scary that people as dumb as you actually win at poker. You act like you live in Oregon and were in the Army, Jeremy.

Re: Party Skins Racist? LC
 

does anyone who in all seriousness plays Party even use those damn icons? - those things sucked.

They prefer to be called Inuit. Eskimo is a derogatory term (from another language I believe) meaning "meat eater" (and it doesn't have good conotations.

You're a racist!

i am jewish, and i think there should be a jewish icon. Maybe a rabbi with a beard. Or maybe an old jewish lady cooking chicken soup. every race and ethnicity should be fairly represented. We should all boycott PP until they do the right thing! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I'm surprised no one has pointed out the irony of this post.

I would personally be more pissed about being called that by a some lame white poser than I would be about not being culturally represented by a retarded looking online mannequin.

It isn't every other member of PartyPoker's fault that you are so backwards that you value not being called racial slurs over being able to choose the race of the avatar we all have turned off.

Thank you for that post. I think you should have an option to choose. Actually I´m just wondering why the big pokersites haven´t thought of that already.
