I Want to Improve the Experience Project

I Know It's Only a Game

By: RedDwarf
Written on October 31st, 2008

  I was a little bored and decided that I would play some of the games here. I played a few, then scrolled down. I found myself offended by one of the games. "Drive By" needs to be removed. Yes I know that it's only a game, but I find it a little racist in the fact that the shooter if a person of color. I also have a problem in the fact that I have lived in areas where Drive-Bys have occurred, and having been through enough of them, it's nothing that is fun or funny. 

 Whether or not you all choose to remove it will not keep from returning to EP, as I love the site, but that game needs to be removed.

    Great job! I would have campaigned against it for you too.

    Thank you for removing it. I normally don't play any "violent" games, but I know that others enjoy that type of game where you go around shooting stuff. This one took a step over the line though in my opinion.

    Thank you all for letting us know if there is an inappropriate game on EP. We have removed this game so it shouldn't cause any future problems.

    I never knew EP had a game like this either. Please try sending them an email and explain your malfunction and I'm more than sure they'll remove it. I've had them remove racist groups and I can't see why this will be an issue on the support teams' part.

    Drive-bys are scary. One of my closest friends died because of a drive by shooting and the guy standing next to him was the actual target.





    I didn't even know this game existed...I agree with you that it does need to be taken down. I won't leave EP either though, whether or not it gets removed. This site is good to me and for me.
