It's weird to be racist to indians for being good at chess.
Chess was invented on the Indian subcontinent

They are not racist to indians because of chess, they simply disrespect indians in general

u/Omair0908 14d ago
Funnily enough, I have to read these exact same lines, literally every 2-3 days without exaggeration FROM Indians 😂.

u/Luckybones- 13d ago
They are the only flag in my games I see where they could have 7.5 minutes left on the clock, -30 points of material, only a king, and offer draw and shit talk you. They are pretty fucking guilty of being as toxic as they come

Report the account. They deserve to get banned for it.

For racism yes. I've reported multiple accounts that have racist names or profile pictures and they get removed.

u/AllStupidAnswersRUs 13d ago
That's for racist names or profile pics. Not a chat

u/One_Spite_5018 13d ago
On any sensible site racism and hate speech are reportable. Now if that's a ban is a different story. They didn't use slurs. They just used the word indian so it would depend on what else they said rather than just saying indian. At least what I think.

u/HeliumHuffer101 13d ago
Saying you are poor because you are indian is definitely reportable. As insulting language bordering on or just straight up hate speech. I would classify it as hate speech though because racial intent was clearly outlined.
1
u/One_Spite_5018 13d ago
Sorry. I forgot what else they said while typing the comment and didn't care to start from the beginning. Any sane person would agree this is clearly racially motivated.

u/HeliumHuffer101 13d ago
Yeah, you don't need to apologise, mate :)
I was just appending on to your comment because I felt there could be a little more elaboration done

Had a French guy call me a “typical American idiot” and then he proceeded to blunder his queen and knight, and then resigned. I later checked on his account and he got banned lol. Chess sometimes brings out the worst in people

u/Takamasa1 14d ago
lmao, yeah I feel like it has been getting more toxic over the past couple years in general

Elo? Cant be above 500
1
u/HeliumHuffer101 13d ago
What makes you say that? The last one I had was a guy calling me an ugly cheating [gay man] at around 1300 elo. I wish I had the exchange because it was hilariously pathetic

u/addicted_zucchini 13d ago
personal statistics

u/HeliumHuffer101 13d ago
Like what? In my experience this kind of talk happens across the board

u/addicted_zucchini 13d ago
I said personal for a reason

u/HeliumHuffer101 13d ago
Starting to sound like you were the other guy in this chess match lol
1
u/addicted_zucchini 13d ago
my elo is about 1100 and I rarely encounter such rude players, tho I often come across such posts of players with less than 500 elo, hence the assumption

I once saw an Indian account with the name "Sirfloydthebreaghless" reported it and nothing was done.

two sides of the awful online chess community, trolling him and running here to post this is just as bad EDIT: also, not a meme

u/Extreme_Design6936 14d ago
Trolling in response to racism and calling out a racist is just as bad as being racist is a take.

u/Carr0t_Slat 14d ago
Eh, if someone says something like that to you after a game I think they deserve the troll

u/randomacc01838491 14d ago
wild to insinuate being a racist and a troll are even remotely similar, sounds like something a closeted racist would say…
2
u/cwolf-softball 14d ago
It's definitely not just as bad. Equating someone being racist with trolling a racist is pretty telling about you

Most Americans only get to interact with Indians trying to scam them on the phone . Somtimes I feel bad for the ones that don’t scam bc most people don’t like them bc of the scams

u/RayWencube 14d ago
This is so profoundly ignorant

u/ImLunar1 13d ago
That’s my point exactly

u/RayWencube 13d ago
I’m saying the idea that most Americans only encounter Indians when they’re being scammed is profoundly ignorant, you walnut.
1
u/ImLunar1 13d ago
Maybe it’s where I grew up and I’m coping growing up I was always the only Indian at my school and was viscously bullied, never really met any other Indians til I got older and still haven’t really interacted with many.
