From: Flavian Molinari Gee, I've never heard of anybody from Japan "ape" western behavior.
As for emulating culture that the U.S. dropped bombs on, I think Vietnam would have Japan beat by a wide margin. I haven't see very many Vietnamese builds lately.
Video games, another phenomena developed in the U.S.
Me thinks the OP may be apeing U.S. culture. Baseball, bluejeans, cocacola,music,ipods,videogames, democracy, oh, and even the internet you're on right now. Hmmmm, give all that up and you'll start to get just a tiny sense of the "aping" you do.

From: Hiro Pendragon Well, it's clear your post was racist from the start.
Is this some kind of "I'm a Chinese person who hates Japanese and therefore I have to knock people who choose Japanese names?" thread?
I've reported your post. I hope your career in SL is a short one. We don't need racists in our world. You really have no clue. Which really is typical. Jumping to conclusions, getting offended for being a fake japanese churning out japanized junk. Anyway, it was a REAL japanese friend who asked me this, since this friend was really pissed at so many fake japanese around and was finding it annoying.

Well you did suggest that genocide may have done some good for a country. Hardly endearing.

From: Zapoteth Zaius PLEASE try not to attack one another on the forums, and try to be respectful of one another. I'm going to submit this thread for Linden Review, if it gets further off track I'll lock it.
Zap It went off track when the poster felt that gassing people was a good thing for Germany.

damn Reitsuki you beat me of a second lol as for me if I was following the OP's resoning I should be aping american ? just because I have an american "sounding" name and because I speak english (I don't really see myself speaking french in SL and waiting to be understood by much people  ) SL is about freedom ... being what you want to be how you want to be ... you could be a cyberneticaly equiped bunny or a japanese looking human.

From: Joannah Cramer Difference would be, only one of these was methodically planned and executed operation to completely eradicate part of human population picked for their genotype.
If you can't tell difference between a war and genocide, perhaps it's better to educate yourself somewhat before you start another thread like that. Unless it's actually your _intention_ to act like ignorant elephant in porcelain store... So the invasion of the middle east was an unmethodically planned and poorly executed operation to eradicate only part of the human population picked for their allegiance to their country and religion? I guess its okay this time. I understand now. Faecal matter comes in various shades of brown.

Then learn how to adress situations accordingly instead of spewing racist slander. I really hope you get sanctioned. And i don't buy the "OMG!!! My friend made me do it!" crap.

Imitation is the sincere form of flattery. This whole concept of "fake Japanese" puzzles me so. Perhaps the definition of a "real" Japanese person is needed?

Does your "REAL japanese friend" also think the Holocaust was a good idea? There are plenty of "American fakers" and "African fakers" in Second Life, by your definition. But that's sort of the beauty - people can role-play any race, gender, age, even species, even whether they are living or robot or cartoon. If you or your "REAL japanese friend" don't like it that way, then start a "no-fakers" community and I'm sure you'll find like minded people.

I understand now. Faecal matter comes in various shades of brown. ROFL!! Geez, what a way to use a thread for political slander and racist comments. Just because a friend was pissed about how folks apreciate japanese culture.... Cottonteil, you really are nothing more than a screeching moonbat. Resmods, please lock the thread and break Cottonteils thumbs. Thanks.

"Imitation is the highest form of flattery."
Many americans admire, even envy, the ancient culture of the Japanese.

From: Kiamat Dusk Just FYI, "traditional Japanese style" is actually traditional Chinese style which they borrowed wholesale from the Chinese during the Tang dynasty right down to the Chinese characters.
-Kiamat Dusk To get a leeetle bit more on track with this thread again, I hear you, Kiamat... Originaly, I was going for generic 'Asian' style, and kept searching for images of 'Asian' living areas... that didn't help me much, so looked up 'Chinese' living areas... that was a bit better, but all the images I found alluded to 'Japanese' style, so I finally searched for that, and I'm getting much more luck with it.

I guess its okay this time. Basically yes. Genocide is intended, complete eradication of certain group. War is on the other hand usually fought 'over something'. It might result in destruction of one side if both parties are dumb and cannot come to agreement early enough, but that eradication isn't actually the goal of it. Which is not what makes it "okay" but what makes it _different_ ... it was the difference between these two you asked about, remember? From: someone I understand now. Faecal matter comes in various shades of brown. No shit, Sherlock. <g> (sorry, that was bad form but couldn't quite resist the bad pun)

If you or your "REAL japanese friend" don't like it that way, then start a "no-fakers" community and I'm sure you'll find like minded people. My friend there has own opinions. I have nothing to do with what others think is a good idea. Creating a no-fakers community is similar to anti-semitism. And its peculiar that people find anti-semitism so touchy, while its okay to be anti-islamist, or anti-south american, and the list goes on. And I'm not even anti-semitist. I just said, at that point in time, it might have done good from a political point of view.
