Apology
It's come to my attention that something I've said has possibly upset some players and I'd like to apologize publicly for it.
I can't completely recall the entire yell conversation of what was said but someone asked the question, Which race do you like best? After reading other yell responses to the question, I replied the first color that came to my mind not necessarily as a joke or being serious but just to participate in the banter. I chose to do so while on my alt account "Power". So in response to the question that was asked on yell, I wrote "White" while on my account named "Power".
I'm not a racist, my comment was not serious nor directed at anyone, and I did not think in the moment it would be an issue. I was only contributing to the banter/pointless bickering on yell because I was bored.
For those that found my comment offensive or took it seriously, I apologize. In hindsight, I shouldn't have participated in that kind of a conversation.

Re: Apology
Kind of hilarious, kind of cringe. Time for a YouTube apology video.
Based on context provided I'd say it was another one of those directionless idiotic conversations. I don't think it's that serious.
My favorite race is the Talladega 500.

Re: Apology
I understand people make mistakes but this was just uncalled for. You took it way out of context, not to mention you chose the wrong answer. Black is far superior.

Re: Apology
I actually found it quite hilarious at the time, and even funnier that people took actual offense to it
It was obviously a troll question, which I thought people were responding in troll fashion

Re: Apology
Context was about ethnic race bro and you know it.
Question was obviously a trap. Good job on springing it like a chad.
Bowing to the SJW culture with an apology was a rookie mistake but I guess it's good to clarify your position given the username.
