Who wants to be infected

[Outlander]

@TheSilentWind So I will like to say it isn't meant to be offensive but rather a joke hoping to get people too read this and hopefully be interested.

Alright guess the Joke didn't go as planned let me see if I cant change that.

I'll leave it at that. The joke was insensitive, and someone did end up getting offended, but the title is changed now, so that's that.

A joke never said about race so don't just assume it is about race but I will admit it did seem racist which is why I changed the name

Perception is reality.

Well anyway let's please get back on track with the thread any other questions or concerns not about the fake name?

@TheSilentWind Just wanted to clarify something. It's really not racist. The reason for the original name "the black" wasn't at all a reference to race or anything of the nature. It was called that because the infection itself (not the people, was a black) oily substance that was simply called "the black." It wasn't a reference to anything about color, race or anything. That being said, if people do misinterpret or misread it as racist, it might be a good idea to change it (which it looks like it has been), but it was not designed as, intended for, or in any way even thought of in terms of race or racism. To the best of my knowledge that was never even in the minds of the creators.

I addressed that I knew his intention wasn't to be racist but it would still be racist though, and it could still offend people.
