If the chat channels in Americs are anything like the ones in Europe then I agree that the majority of the people using homophobic and racist insults are, basically, ignorant and immature, most of the time not realising they're actually offending anybody. 'Gay' at the moment among children and teenagers seems to mean anything that is stupid and not very good. In the worst cases I tend to report the idiots. Sad to say that the 'anal' spam is alive and well in WoW in Europe too. If I get too aggravated or saddened or sickened then I either go and kill some poor creature vindictively and viciously or I /leave trade.
