I'm also from Armageddon (we're everywhere, you can't escape us) and I don't mind playing a racist, because it's nothing like IRL racism.

However, I couldn't play a rapist. Why? Because of RL issues. I could play the victim but not the person who does it. Some people might have similar issues, but with racism, and they SHOULDN'T be forced to be an active racist, just be a passive one. A passive racist is someone who doesn't need to spit on elves constantly.

Racism in Muds, I think is perfectly acceptable. If a mud was based on Earth and it forced everyone to be racist, I'd have a problem cause it's too close to home.

Just my 2 'sid.
