I was watching Doctor Who and it occurred to me. Where is the racism?! In RuneScape, that is. In fact, most RPGs. Humans can't even tolerate differences in our own species let alone be expected to co-exist with other species! Shock

Runescape is in general very smooth, very few edges and such Tongue

I have no idea if I put that right, hope you get it :L

oh haha then I guess we're on the same 'level'

maybe it could be an extension of My Arm's Big Adventure, but that might be a little unrelated. XD

I thought that was a perverted joke by people on the forum... then I looked in the quest tab. Same thing with "What Lies Below".

Well, there is a certain degree of inter-species discrimination within RuneScape. You have H.A.M. which looks like a group of extremists, Khazard cruelly attacks the gnomes, and the gnome themselves have some disapproval towards humanity, and a lot of the dwarves have options to insult them about their height. There is a regular quarrel between religions, with extremists going very far indeed.

Various, non-human species have varying levels of dislike towards humans. Some species are fine with humans, others really dislike and distrust them for their big headedness and self imposed superiority and a final group consider them to be just unlearned, ignorant and above all, food.

But you're right, the inter-species discrimination and racism is fairly limited, and could do for more of it.

The responses need to be plagiarized from Discworld.

I would considered H.A.M a 'racist' or 'Hate' group in RS.

They hate any and all creatures, including sentient one simply since they are not human (or 'normal animal')

I assume they also dislike elves.

...


EDIT: looks like MorbiusMonster mentioned already...and more
