Vendor Racism Complaint

Hello,

Theres a recent thread thats been going a little crazy. Someone complaining about a Dynoflash and his friend posting the complaints in the vishnu forums.

As a background, I have neither the Vishnu nor Dynoflash anything. My evo is stock. I don't really give a crap either way in terms of tuning.

However, Al made a rather racist comment that I found bothersome.

University of Shivladden

Obviously b/c Shiv is of an Indian background which is quite far from Saudi Arabia where bin laden is from. The racial slur is obvious.

I think particularly in todays climate, crap like this shouldn't fly and unless I'm mistaken, racism isn't allowed in the forums.

You honestly think that the mods will do anything to Al come on. I would be surprised if they send him a PM dont get your hopes up on this. I agree there was some hella wrong stuff said in there not just that comment....was like wwIII in there.

Post subjects should give an honest description of the content inside. This information should either be included in the subject or description line. Furthermore, subjects and messages should not have any derogatory comments towards any race, gender, sexuality, ethnic background, or age.
I think the mods should be made aware regardless.

I agree with you about the racism but Cmon dude, you could contact the administrator and address the issue with him. I have seen tons of people cursing all the time.

I am also a foreigner but I don't get offended with etnic issues on this forum, you will find that a lot, don't worry you need to know Al in person, he curses but not maliciously.

And, since the thread in question is in the process of being deleted, what about:

So lets see what forum rules Al broke today:

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/announcement.php?f=85

-No bashing vendors, shops, or other websites without just cause. evolutionm.net reserves the right to determine when just cause has been proven, so all complaints should be sent to our staff for evaluation. If you don't like it and haven't talked to our staff about it, don't post.

-Excessive flaming will not be tolerated for any reason. Users who verbally assault other posters on a regular basis will be banned. Name-calling is not acceptable. Moderator's judgment applies here. "You are wrong" is not a personal attack; "You are an idiot" is.

This is the type of language and behavior that has been seen on this site repeatedly from Mr. Friedman, specifically. Yes, there are certainly other parties that occassionally stoop to the same level, but none as persistently as the vendor in question. It would be nice to see EvoM actually ENFORCE its own policies. At the very least Mr. Friedman should be asked to hold his temper. As a lawyer, one would think that he is in possession of more politically correct synonoms to his usual tasteless comments.

I am American too, I fact I am american since I was born but now days and because the american society is so mixed you can be an american and be black, or hispanic or white or mix.

I wouldn't worry much for real. The administrator should do their job

Take care!!

I was actually seriously considering getting a DynoFlash until I could afford an Stand-Alone but if this is how he acts, whether justified or not, I don't want to give him my buisness.

Sorry Al, but your attitude killed it for me. But as it seems from your posts you will either not care or think I'm a Shiv supporter.
