Posting hate speech based on race has been and still is against the Terms of Use. If you're reporting racist posts that aren't being deleted by all means contact me privately about it and I'll look into it. If you aren't reporting it, dunno what you're expecting us to do.

Edit: Probably don't need to spell this out, but the mods have been told not to use NWDs in regards to hate speech.

I know its too much to expect you to know everything that goes on here, but I think this really downplays the level of the problems here. If you google gamefaqs current events, the third suggestion after regular old gamefaqs current events and gamefaqs current events archive is gamefaqs current events racism. The board is pretty known for being like this. The mods are often pretty lax on dealing with stuff like diet racism and trolls skirting the boundaries on intolerance, and it allows that kind of posting to proliferate.

As annoying as it is to see literally everyone being called a cuck, soyboy, snowflake, etc, I just find this policy doesnt really take the steps other communities are taking to try and make gaming more inclusive. No one wants to be called a name, but also Ive seen that one Jewish caricature more here than anywhere else in my life, and Id much rather be called a cuck in than see that go unmodded again. Id just like to feel like gamefaqs actually cares about the comfort of some of its minority populations, rather than expecting them to just toughen up, shake off the bigotry, and move on.
