Re: Globalised Racism?

Yeah dera, the Immigration test isn't that bad, anymore. thankfully.
But in terms of acceptable behaviour, Talking in a different language while in the company/presence of anyone who doesn't speak the language is exceptionally rude in my opinion. tourists who may have only 1 person fluent excepted

Re: Globalised Racism?
Australian advertisers have no fucking clue about what there doing, not even suprised with this non-sense to be honest. Hmmm I can't really fault the Australian advertisers.

Re: L4D2 Refused Classification
what atkinson fails to realise/blatently ignores is that as part of an r18+ rating we could actually tighten the ma15+ rating standards to make games which previously would have received an ma15+ rating to now cop an r18+ rating.
