Okay, now that I'm finished with your English lesson (trust me you could use 100 more lessons on spelling and grammar,) I'm ready to answer your question.
First of all, you're not being detailed at all. Did someone give you a racist remark? If they did, you could have posted it so we could see it. The moderators on this site are extremely watchful and they would see something if it did happen. If you don't know what a moderator is, open the nearest dictionary (even though yours probably has cob webs on it.) =)
I encourage you to ATTEMPT to use better grammar and spelling so you will be taken more seriously. =) But anyways back to your question... If someone said something racist, report it or it's your problem. If you're just looking for drama and trouble, good luck and have a nice life.

if someone left a racist answer, then you should you could report it.
Also, learn to spell? [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

It is not the sort of behaviour that is encouraged on this site. However, there are many columnists here that have their own opinions and conditioning, and this could sometimes come across in the wrong way.
If you feel you have witnessed anything of this nature I can only suggest you file an abuse report. I have included the link for you to do this, should you feel the need. A L2 moderator will look at the answers you report and make a judgement on whether they agree or not, then act accordingly. It's a good system and they are very fair. :)

This SITE (with an S not a C) as a whole cannot be "a" racist. That's logically impossible. And it's pretty much impossible for people on this site to be racist since they cannot see what you look like. Unless you write "I'm chinese" or "I'm black" and the beginning of every question they have no way of knowing who you are and what you are. If you're referring to the fact that we look down upon questions written poorly (whether it's capitalization or ebonics("ghetto" talk/writing) or whatever), bad questions make the site look bad and give the columnists headaches when they try to read them.
Do you honestly have any proof, or are you just mad because someone answered a question bluntly or your question got deleted? In a site that's estimated to have 45,000 people on it, of course there are bound to be a few racists but they generally don't make themselves known.
I also have a feeling you don't know the true definition of racism- don't take it personally, most people don't know either-
Racism is technically thinking that one race is superior to another or that races make a difference in achievements in learning, sports, etc.
vomski10 answered Wednesday June 27 2007, 12:18 pm: First of all, how's this site possibly racist? Any proof? Any at all? I'd love to hear why you think it's racist. I'm sure that there are some racist people on this site seeing as there are many, many people on here. Yet, at the same time, there are so many people on here that ask questions and answer that it's almost impossible to tell their color or ethnicity. People give their answers based on their own opinions, their life, and what they truly believe will help the person. So please explain how this site is racist because i do not comprehend that.

Well I don't think so.
But if you have a complaint then you can send the manager a message with your problem.
:D
Hope I helped. [ easterngirl's advice column | Ask easterngirl A Question ]
ASAPcamille answered Wednesday June 27 2007, 12:12 pm: This site is not racist. We all have our own opinions, and choose to express them in the certain way/ways we want to. It is not up to you to judge, and criticize us, because you were one of us before you thought it was "sickening". However, I would like some reasons why you do think that we are racist. Do you have any certain answers from other columnists that prove this fact, or even back it up?
It would be hard to be racist on this site anyway because we have so many different people of different races, ethnicities, and backrounds. Everyone in this world is different in a good way. We dont try to be racist, and I seriously dont think that anyone on this site it. If anyone on this site is, then they are not here for the right reasons, and are just trying to harm , and not help the individuals on this site that actually need help, and advice with their problems, and their life. If you think that this site is racist, then why are you here? I am sure I back up most of the people on this site when I say that we have the best intentions to help people. If you do in fact have an example of a columnist being racist, then file an abuse report here :[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
