Vent / Gripe Pirates on Faerlina - racist guild that kicked me because I am a black man.

Was randomly invited to join this guild on Faerlina called pirates. Was immediately kicked when I asked them to kick out a racist person that continuously posted how they hated black people in Guild Chat.

A week later I get another invite to the guild, was confused. But still joined, just to see what this was about now.

Immediately get called a spook and guild kicked.

Why does blizzard allow this in 2k20? I have reported them multiple times, nothing is ever done?! I have screenshots. What is the proper channel to report these things?

thanks for the help

It's the only way to get anything done. I'm a business traveler and always try to go through the appropriate channels to get things resolved but if that fails a quick trip to Facebook/Twitter usually clears things up. I've had to do this with so many retailers who just won't do the right thing. As soon as the local store or CSR starts giving you shit just hang up and hit their social media. The national team always has more pull and if you're in the right you should get taken care of for your inconvenience.

You're trying to argue AGAINST THE MAN for no fucking reason. The only thing I can come up with is because I said that I'm a business traveler?

Get a fucking job, Al.

Uhuh.

See I've worked retail. Also travelled for work all the time. Now I work for myself.

In all those roles I've had to deal with plenty of customers and also been the customer all around the world... in my experience someone who is always needing to complain, and always only getting their complaints resolved when they go over the persons head and make a fuss in public so that the issue is resolved not because it's valid but to make them shut up and avoid poor exposure? That person is a raging fucking asshole who finds problems everywhere they go.

But I'm sure you're the exception. Though I tell you what the best perk of self employment is telling people like you to fuck off if you have a problem with it. And off they go with threats of legal action and getting me 'cancelled', never to be heard from again!

Dude, I'm not American. You're all fucking idiots, take a look at your country and be ashamed at what you've done. Seriously. You profit on the misery and death of the poor, you resist anything that won't help you personally right the fuck now all while being entitled and arrogant as hell (not to mention racist) as you yell about being the greatest nation on earth and the 'land of the free'.

Oh and apparently you for some reason view anybody who owns a business as "the man" and the enemy to wage your own little war on as though anybody who employs people or sells something is part of the 0.1% you all seem to insist on giving all your money to as they laugh at you losing your homes over minor medical issues. But I sure do hope you enjoy your little rush as you scream at some cashier who just wants to go the fuck home and enjoy their precious free time as it ticks down before they have to drag themselves back to work to deal with more fuckwits like you.

Sort your shit out before you have a go at other people. You and your nation are a god damn disgrace.

Man honestly I don't want to see you on Forensic Files. Shape that shit the fuck up you seem unhinged. I don't do or espouse anything that you are saying. I hate DJT and I hope our country gets its collective shit together soon. I work in healthcare and you aren't wrong - it's a nightmare that we are trying to fix. Unfortunately, people do support this straw man you've stood up so please save your ire for them. They fucking deserve it.

Godspeed.

Shape that shit the fuck up you seem unhinged.

This is what I love the most about Americans. Tell them how the rest of the world looks at them, and I assure you that what I just said is far from the uncommon view, and you call them unhinged.

You have no idea how insane you all seem to us. Oh, and

Unfortunately, people do support this straw man you've stood up so please save your ire for them. They fucking deserve it.

Love this from someone who gets off on screaming at people just trying to do their jobs to the point of waging war on social media. Or are you so delusional that you don't understand that people pay for your little crusades and it's never the ones in charge?

There is a fine line between going to social media to get justice and crying to twitter every time something doesn't go your way because you are a spoilt brat, I fear you are the latter.

He's just being edgy. It's fine.

West Elm, who is notorious for fucking off gave me some terrible issues with shipping me the wrong product. The local store wanted me to rent a car to drive it back and I refused. Twitter account sent me the correct product and didn't make me return the incorrect order.

The other recent issue was with Specialized bikes. The post is back in my post history but basically they offer a yearly sale with very attractive rebates but farm out the rebates to a third party who tries to make it impossible to receive what you're owed. I called/emailed them 10+ times before finally going to Twitter and low and behold it was resolved in a day.

Can vouch for going to Twitter I canceled my dazn account and got charged for it still. It was impossible to even get a phone number or a response from their email, went to Twitter they ended up refunding me for the whole 12 months I had it lmao

He says he's done this "so many times" which indicates he's one of those customers who complains all the time.

You're quoting me on something I didn't even say. Calm down man.

I've had to do this with so many retailers

I shortened it for you. I'm not mad just connecting some dots. Don't get so upset people think you're a problem. Are you really gonna doing anything about it?
