I saw a post wher some one was complaining about Lynette being the only black person in FO2. Check again, the guard just outside he door, that seargent in the corrections center, and the guard at the fenced area on the outskirts of Vault city. Those were the only ones i payed attention to, since I heard the complaint. There may be more, but does it matter? I never noticed color before. What stood out in my mind were the San Fran people callind a Loa Wau (or whatever it was), and the funny round eye.

There are white ppl, black ppl and even asians in FO2. No need for racist comments

That post wasn't meant to be racist. If anyone took offense, I'm sorry. I only meant that I only saw people, not white, black or whatever.

nononono! Nothing wrong with you, dear danferry!

My point was, that when I wrote " even asians in FO2 " that all the japs, chinese etc. would start complaining at me ie typing racist comments

Someone has always got a chip on his shoulder, and will take offense at something. That type of person may not even believe what he/she is complaining about, just wants to complain. And there is nothing that anyone can do about that person. But still, at least if I did offend someone, I did say sorry.

The reason you don't see so many other races than white in the FO series is apparently (i read it somewhere) because it is all based on sort of fifties ideas. And there was still a lot of bigotry back in the fifties. Thus the game is less ethnically diverse.

Actually laplanders ain't Sweden's private property! They live in Norway and Finland as well (there are places called "Lapland" in both of those countries), remember that

Anyway, laplanders rule. Especially saame their language!

Boris beivi, baby! :mrgreen: That's as far as my Lappish knowledge goes...

As well as in Russia(On the Kola penisula)...
And Norway has no place called Lappland... We've just got 'Finnmark' (Finn is a racist word for Lapp in Norwegian... Origined from the pop. confuse between the Finnish and the Lappish)

Actually, I live in Lappland myself... (Northern Norway, that is... Laps live in Finnmark, Troms, Nordland... mainly, although most Norwegian Laps live in Oslo...)

Anyways, Lappish rule, and yes, why not place FO3 in Lappland..? We could have the Lappish vault, the Saab-man, and oh, yes, a _lot_ of cussing, post-apoc mutated reindeers, a missing Joika... And..? Oh...? Ok... I shall shut it...

Well, if someone did start doing that, and you believe that you haven't done anything wrong, then you message a mod about it (ie in this case Grizzley UK or me). In this situation I'd side with you.
