Do you even know Doctor? To assume such thing? If you came by a group channel to only do jokes and to mess with othera for pure fun or whatever only shows lack of mature

I've never myself encountered any form of biasism in the community nor have I encountered evidence to support the existence of biasisim in the community.

I haven't noticed much of this being an issue aside from a few "#FUMUKUBIAS" tags here and there. I am honestly shocked that this seems to be a big problem and that alot of people seem upset. I am not saying that these people are wrong, im just surprised as this sorta popped out of nowhere.

Or you learn to deal with biasness and live with it, happens everywhere, in politics, work, school and gMod community’s. Deal with it.

We have to differentiate bias here. Everyone is biased by the events they go through. Someone who got gassed in WWII is more likely to be against chemical weapons than a weapons chemist.

I'd personally say No, I play CS:GO with the people who posted abuse threads on me, I disagreed with my best friend admins like Daley and "Nacreas" "Bambo" I play PUBG and role-play and mess around with the people I ban,

People kissing your ass doesn't make them a friend, that makes them an ass-kisser. People being friends makes them a friend.

Because people can be objective. It's not impossible.

Yes it has when? I'd like some examples, please.

No, it's not. Being biased because of your life experience is different to being biased because of your friends. As an example for myself, I tend to often say "no" to my friends. I still have friends, because my friends like me for my personality, not because I wield power like a mighty sword. There's a small difference there. Don't forget also, the entire team have oversight of the rest of the team, plus HR oversees the entire team. If you do shit like that, you will be called out on it, as you well know.

I recall a quote similar to this, where the person who posted it ended up being wrong. It didn't go well then, I doubt it will go well this time.

Negative, negative and negative. You just spent your time using everything Rocket said and just going against that, finding a way.

In his resignation, he mentioned a group of people.
