While I’m a lurker, I only really subscribed for new client/server announcements.  This was something that had always interested me since I was a child using Windows 3.1 though. I’ve grown up with Gopher.  I didn’t come here for this puerile and disgusting rubbish.

Also, as an American, race as a whole is too sensitive of a topic here at the moment.  And in order for us to be taken seriously, we need to act accordingly and professionally with consideration towards everyone.  Also, this means this troll should be best ignored until he realizes that he’s crossed way too many lines.

I honestly feel disgusted at this point after looking over his “Gopher” hole.
