The guy who starts the give away wrote me that:

"Hey, your won a dayz copy from me. But i have reconized youre just a nazi so i select another winner"

What the...?!

Scary to see some people are so blind and so ignorant about a history.

Dont know why so many people still think about this nazi times. I think they should try to get some more history about TODAY.

they'd be bad at english different(and only if unfortunate enough to be from one of the retarded ghettos(as opposed to the luckier reservations run by sane people) that insist on making kids speak their old language until 5th grade (presumably to throw up artificial barriers and decrease the chances of their ever leaving (i guess so the blood quanta stays up?)). like that one inuit school that used their government funding to drop math class for seal clubbing(not making up something racist its true, but it was a long time ago so i assume they fixed it by now and kicked that idiot out))
but i digress, dude was clearly russian commie bastard screwing with the assumed fascist

Considering most Germans I know are ignorant a-holes, I kinda understand the guy. (Not trying to say you are a nazi btw)

Then you go to the wrong places :)

Most of my friends and me myself aren't ignorant and/or a-holes, therefore my point of view would be "germans are generally nice" but I know that there are places where I could find those people you speak about. But those exist for every nationality, not just for germans.

Like I said before, can just let this thread and complaint rest. The only time stamp that matches your "win" is an obviously fake "DayZ (3 Copies)" from a first time gifter who just joined. Of course no one received the game.

Perhaps instead of people wanting to do call outs or w/e in GA descriptions (which many people don't read), a guide in the forum to "spotting fake GA's" could be useful.

This whole story seems fake to me, not only because I find it hard to believe that such ignorant people still exist, but also because of how the OP treated this whole situation. He basically opened the thread, posted 2 replies and then he simply left it and let the others argue/ debate.

Whereas I agree that racist people like that might still exist, I find it impossible to believe that someone would even attempt to use such an excuse to request a re-roll. Also, some people launched the theory of the giveaway being fake, but in that case how would a re-roll help the creator get away with it? He would still have to send the gift to the new winner.

Until one week passes and I see OP marking the gift as not received I will keep believing that the said giveaway never existed.

Calling someone a Nazi, even if the person being called a Nazi is German, isn't racist...

The word racist gets tossed around so much lately it's disgusting.

Most people don't even know what it means anymore, it's really sad.

Also, "race" is basically meaningless, it's a purely cosmetic distinction, there is only one species of human beings, otherwise we couldn't interbreed with one another.

It is racist if the person is called a Nazi on the basis of them being German. Otherwise, it's just being an ass. In this specific case, not only is OP's statement unconfirmed, it's impossible to confirm the intent of the anonymous person due to Poe's Law. Race is meaningless from a scientific standard, but from a societal standpoint, there is bias based on those few chromosomes that determine skin color.

German isn't a race...

Race (n.) - A group of persons related by common descent or heredity.

There are multiple definitions of race, though.

The broader the definition the less meaning it has.

That definition of race includes every human on the planet, because we all share common decent.

"A social race is a group that is assumed to have a biological basis but is actually defined in a culturally arbitrary manner." -Conrad P. Kottak, anthropologist

And it doesn't lose meaning with broadness. It just works on multiple levels.

Exactly my point... Arbitrary.

Anything that is arbitrary cannot be strictly defined, but you seemed to be trying to.

You're still not getting it...

I was pointing out that the definition that you're attempting to use is completely arbitrary and basically worthless.

Just like, the more broad a definition becomes, the less useful/meaningful it is.

Broad definitions encompass more specific definitions, they work on multiple levels. But fine, I'll use a definition from sociology instead: "Ethnicity refers to groups that self-identify based on shared beliefs, culture, ancestry, and history." That's much more specific, happy? Also, if you still disagree, please provide your own definition of race, which will probably clear a lot of things.

Do you understand the difference between species and races? Different races can breed together, different species can't. There are differenet races of humans.

... Of course I understand the difference between the two...

What people don't seem to understand is that "race" is simply a cosmetic distinction, with no actual scientific distinction.

Can you list any other animal known to science that is classified by race besides humans?

Race classification is in no way scientific, so it's basically meaningless.
