I agree with SCC. People need to calm down

yes Zigic is a troll. Yes he will hopefully be banned and we won;t have to put up with his annoying posts any more but as soon as someone posts something slightly inappropriate to do with race (lets be honest its not really even that racist/offensive what he posted - far worse has been posted on here previously) people seem to fall over themselves to show they are the most affronted/offended.

        The only actually racist post has had zero replies. (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jun 17, 10:54:57
        
        So people have been complaining about racism (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:14:42
        
        Well, the post that got all the replies certainly was racist in context, but not so much (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jun 17, 11:19:42
        
        Yes my point was about ignoring him that was all (n/m) (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:35:10

        I agree with SCC. People need to calm down (General Chat) - Jim, Jun 17, 10:45:49
        
        That's even more ridiculous than your previous post (n/m) (General Chat) - Huge Small, Jun 17, 11:24:38
        
        Which previous post? (n/m) (General Chat) - Jim, Jun 17, 11:25:44
        
        That should have been below 'fair enough' (General Chat) - Huge Small, Jun 17, 11:32:06
        
        He posted what he posted and phrased it how he phrased it (General Chat) - Jim, Jun 17, 11:47:57
        
        Just wanted to register my disapproval... (General Chat) - Wilts, Jun 17, 11:08:53
        
        Fair enough (General Chat) - Jim, Jun 17, 11:12:14
        
        That post was astatement of fact, although clearly designed to rattle Wrath cages. (General Chat) - CB41, Jun 17, 11:00:56
        
        I'm guessing that's why the worse post wasn't reported first then (n/m) (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:16:16
        
        That post was astatement of fact, although clearly designed to rattle Wrath cages. (n/m) (General Chat) - CB41, Jun 17, 11:00:00
        
        Although i've just seen his subsequent post which i agree does cross the line more! (n/m) (General Chat) - Jim, Jun 17, 10:48:44
        
        Probably best to read it through before telling people to calm down (n/m) (General Chat) - Huge Small, Jun 17, 11:04:08
        
        I had read the post he was talking about. Still no need for the frenzy though (n/m) (General Chat) - Jim, Jun 17, 11:08:40
        
        Hardly a frenzy (General Chat) - Huge Small, Jun 17, 11:14:34
        
        People need to point it out?!!! (n/m) (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:17:01
        
        Of course they do. (General Chat) - Arizona Bay, Jun 17, 11:21:22
        
        Sorry but I don't see what all the replies registering offence achieves (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:36:48
        
        It's about being part of the club. (General Chat) - Bare_Buttocks, Jun 17, 11:39:44
        
        They don't need too (General Chat) - Huge Small, Jun 17, 11:20:09
        
        Because that's what the 'troll' wants? (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:38:37
        
        I think they do (General Chat) - Old Man, Jun 17, 11:18:56
        
        But it was pointed out by over a dozen people (General Chat) - SCC 28, Jun 17, 11:41:50
        
        Good (General Chat) - Huge Small, Jun 17, 11:48:11
