Double Tap = "awww ****! Got 'em again!"
Hat Trick = "oh, u want in too?"
Quad Kill = "No stoppin' me"

[Lethe]

Isn't this kind of racist?

this, although I do like the idea.

[redbearrd]

How is it racist?

[Helacious]

Isn't this kind of racist?

No, it's stereotyping if anything, exactly like a British announcer. I don't see anyone crying about that one.

Yeah but only because nobody gives a **** about nationality stereotypes, but racial stereotypes is something different.

Serial Killer: Oh lawd, have mercy!
Ultimate Warrior: He ain't yo baby's daddy!

[Eric9358]

It's not racist. There's a british one and a gay one, not any more offensive than those. Black people have a very humorous way of saying things/talking. Not in a racist or hating way, in a laughing with them way.

Racism directly abuses stereotypes of a certain race. stereotypes is similar but not applied to races.

[KFelon]

Isn't this kind of racist?
is it really any more discriminatory than the flamboyant or english gentleman announcers? .....

Gays not a race
English is a nationality. Not a race. (let me clarify, this is a bit more abstract, just in my viewpoint)

Yes but people of both of those groups could take offense to it for the same reason. The whole idea here is the gay announcer and british announcer were given those in-game voices because they have a very distinct way of saying things (the stereotype versions of the groups anyways). It would be the same for the black woman. It's not about nationality, sexual orientation, or skin color, it is about the way they talk.

If that's the case I want a Nazi announcer.

[Eric9358]

I wouldn't have a problem with an announcer with a heavy German accent, if that's what you mean. Saying Nazi is taking it completely out of context, it isn't an accurate comparison at all.

[BlackJester]

Fine. Call it 'Strict Prussian Announcer' or something, like 'Flamboyant' for gay.

[muyfeo]

This is...the most...win idea...ive...ever...seen...in my life...EVER

APPROVED

Exactly, it's all about how you portray it.

Not arguing about them being offensive, just teaching people here how to differentiate between racism, stereotypes, etc. No doubt these are offensive, but if you saw the Japan thread people mostly took a positive stand for it. And yet when we use "black woman" there's an uproar.

[ChimeraTX]

I approve this, I think it would be so funny lol

If we give it enough attention is there a chance S2 will do it?

[Radiohead]

Hire Glozell to do this.

[superdeluxxe]

This would add some much needed blackitude to Heroes of Newerth. Is there any dark skinned hero who isn't a demon? o_o

[MrLInk]

In Your Face

In and Out like a fast food restaurant

Whats up my nega

[ArnoldRimmer]

I'd like a black lady announcer as long it wasn't in the blacksploitation vein, if it just was a sincere sounding black lady doing a UT-style announcer set.

Some.

Some black woman might fall into that stereotype, but saying "black people" have a different way of saying things is just wrong, and borderline racist.

[Claudius]

Hell yea, APPROVED

[sco0t]

I don't think that this is racist at all. Just a stereotype.

Now that we have three members of the royalty in agreement, S2 can implement it without worries.

[reblog]

Just do it!

[Jotaro]

Totally disapprove it , boy

Wake up , they tryed the Flamboyant Pack and they had lot of narrow minded people whinning about the Negative Gay point of view , etc

The idea is Good , but the World is not ready for this.

[BCInventory]

yes its possible they might, and OP u should credit the people who replied with ones u used to edit into the original post.

THis is a great idea and would definately do well in sales

[SuperMcRad]

The fact is, I've seen Asians, Whites and Latinos talk like this in my area, so its nothing tied specifically to African-Americans.

Yes, I would consider the way the OP presented the thread as racist, but its definitely something that should be considered.

Call it "Sassy Announcer" or something like that. It is a way of talking and has nothing tied to race but personality.

Make it so.

[Onkelffs]

Yeah but only because nobody gives a **** about nationality stereotypes, but racial stereotypes is something different.

Yeah your melanin production clearly states it's not ok to joke about a stereotype that have a different melanin production.

We could have a homewife announcer instead! Or a Jersey Shore one.

Grow up or stop being so insecure, you don't become a racist because you find an exaggerated stereotype portrayed in this clip funny:

Same can be used in the games medium.

first blood : Wollt ihr den totalen Krieg ?!! (do you want the total war, famous quote..)

double tap = Sieg Heil

Hattrick = Ehre der Waffen SS

on win:
The german folk is pure aryan and invicible. or in German "Das deutsche Volk ist rein arisch und unbesiegbar"

would be epic^^

[LeVvE]

I wish people would stop ****ing playing the racist card as soon as someone say something with the word "black".
It's just a ****ing color bloody hell relax.

Well, you can't fight your way out of it basically saying "this is how black people speak"

You are labeling it onto them by stating it that way. As I mentioned earlier, it is not "black people speak" it is a use of language that anyone can use... though it is predominantly used by the african-american culture.

Still, it is not "black" speech at all, and I will call it racist by stating it in such a way.

[Blueflash]

I'm rather offended by this thread.

Nobody is saying all black people talk like that. What we are saying is that a certain dialect has developed among the black community in many different regions that sound like that.
We are using a generalization, like the british announcer is. We are not using a stereotype, like the homosexual announcer was.

[Mornwen]

Nah black woman announcer isnt racist at all, just like this isn't:

White man announcer
Double kill:Two Mac and cheeses tonight!!
Quadkill: On thy hither I will transport my offspring to thy game of soccer on the eve of thine day :arma:
Genocide: Time to go to Laguna beach with my Sperry's and khaki shorts!

Victory: Time to caress my wifes pale flat bottom!
Defeat: Time to caress the babysitters pale underage flat bottom! :bloo:

Concede: Well I do say....lets go play a round of golf on my 90acre British green!

Madbro? :madm:
