It ain't about being scared. I'm just stating what it is.

If you're going to be participating here, then participate in full. If you got something to weigh in on, then weigh in like Chindogg and everyone else. If you think the community is a joke, then don't participate. It's as simple as that. But drive-by trolling, one-liners, or whatever won't be tolerated. That's why one of the other mods got you before.

I'm telling you this now because you do normally participate and it's all cool. Act like you want to be here and it's good. If you think folks are being silly, try and convince them that they are.

While I commend your effort, I feel like you're wasting your time.

JoJo's ASB gets me all hot and bothered. Not expecting a deep game but that's fine.

Thing about Infiltration and EVO - how many players are working on a pocket Cammy to deal with him? Plus the JP roster is deeper this year and I am dying to see Sako v Infiltration. Also very curious to see what Daigo will bring this year.

Hit-and-run.

...or hit-and-log-off?

troll-and-log-off might be the best way to describe it. Now to propagate it across the internet

I wasn't thinking of drive-by in the context you're thinking of. I do see the implicit context for it now though. Sorry for that.

Nah, I still gotta be more careful, man. Even if it was a joke, I have to be more aware of what I'm saying. I strive to be better so I need to act better.

whaaaaaaaaaat? how did that even relate to race?

drive-by -> drive-by shooting -> often commented by gangs -> gangs and black people are often associated imagery -> Sarus is black -> thatsracist.gif

That's basically the gist of it.

Honestly, every time I think of Sarus, I think horsehead so it completely slipped my mind.

I always wonder how people feel about being an internet meme.

Depends on the meme. The old man in the "you gon' get raped" pic lost his job I think. Scumbag Steve ran with it and even made a song about it. He also helped out someone else who became a meme with a heartfelt letter.

And then there's the "overly obsessed girlfriend" girl or whatever that meme was, who used her fame to get people to donate to charity. At least that's what I heard. Need to double-check that one.

That is a ridiculous stretch.
All criminal organizations do drive by shootings.
Seen a live one in my trip in Russia 4 years ago too.
It's commendable that you strive to be better and not offend, but this one ain't an issue

But people stretch the most ridiculous things. A comment that never meant to offend gets twisted the wrong way. We've all seen it. Sarus was joking but I still need to do better.

Also, you saw one in person? Damn. =/

i don't think you need to do better in this case, because there was honestly no reason. But alas, if you want to better yourself, that's a noble cause and more power to you.

Just don't turn into another Patricia Hernandez!

Think of it as training for fighting games. Being more aware of the situation you put yourself in during a match helps you to come out a winner. =P
