Not if you haven't done anything wrong. Hope no ones comments have offended you at all, mate. I think everyone here has just gone to point out a small detail and it's kind of the whole "you can't say that" thing going on. I understand what Laminge was trying to say, but I don't think anyone was going "they're idiots because they're from another part of the globe".

I've had a few very nasty comments made by some drivers from a range of races. Quite often those comments have been related to a topic that's had me thinking "hang on, that's because I'm australian" or "it's because I shave my head" or something along those lines. I'm not the most intimidating looking person getting around, so some people tend to get a bit nasty. It's only when I fire back that they either step up or shut up.

But at the same time, I've got a couple of 'Western Oriental Gentlemen' (and ladies) aswell as a few other races. I never once stated in my posts here that I'm generalising an entire race.

So my point is, YugoStar, and anyone else, I apologise if certain comments here have offended, but I don't think that was anyone's intent.
