I dont really finds the word "Nigger" as offensive,

its just the name of the colour, cause they are neither black or brown.

I kinda finds black more offensive.. cause it makes or made them seem "Bad"

(and when America had slave-trading, they tougth "browns" were "dirty"..)

some "black-people" even use "nigger" as a compliment...

</something, definetly meant to be something offesive..>

^ don't we have a rant thread or something like that?

[on-topic]

Many third party graphics cards offered sprite capabilities. Sprite Engines often scale badly, starting to flicker as the number of sprites increases above the number of sprite units, or uses more and more silicon as the designer of the The central processor can instruct the external chips to fetch source images and integrate them into the main screen using direct memory access channels. Calling up external hardware, instead of using the processor alone, greatly improved graphics performance. Because the processor is not occupied by the simple task of transferring data from one place to another, software can run faster; and because the hardware provided certain innate abilities, programs that use CISC or BIOS were also smaller.Separate locations in memory were used to hold the main display and the sprites.Some sprite engines could only store 8 positions in their registers and the unchallenged CPU was programmed to update them several times per frame. Software blitting was complicated by some very strange addressing modes into video ram.ApplicationSprites are typically used for characters and other moving objects in video games. They have also been used for mouse pointers and for writing letters to the screen.For on-screen moving objects larger than one sprite's extent, sprites may sometimes be scaled and/or combineSynonymSprites have been known by several alternative names:* Player-Missile Graphics was used on the Atari 400/800 and Early Atari Coin Op games to refer to hardware-generated sprites. The term reflected the usage for both characters ("players") and other objects ("missiles"). They had restricted horizontal resolution (8 or 2 pixels, albeit with scalability, and a potential 192 lines of vertical resolution), limiting their use somewhat.* Movable Object Block, or MOB was used in MOS Technology's graphics chip literature (data sheets, etc). However, Commodore, the main user of MOS chips and the owner of MOS for most of the chip maker's lifetime, applied the common term "sprite".* On the Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and Game Boy, sprites were referred to as OBJs (short for "objects"), and the region of RAM used to store sprite attributes and coordinates was known as OAM (Object Attribute Memory). This still applies today on the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS handheld systems.* BOB's or 'Blitter Objects', the sprite system used in the Amiga series of computers.* Software sprites were used to refer to subroutines that used bit blitting to accomplish the same goal on systems such as the Atari ST and the Apple II whose graphics hardware had no sprite capability.* The computer programming language Dark Basic used the term Bob (for "blitter object") to refer to its software-sprite functions, before switching to the more conventionally-used "sprite" term. Sprite cultureMain article: SpritingMore recently, sprites are edited or created by fans in a process called "spriting". "Spriters" mostly use them to become sprite comic artists, for the purpose of creating a video game-themed comic. It has been continued by Macromedia Flash animators who create sprite cartoons. In these communities, spriting has been made into small sections; recoloring, edits, customs, etc. Sprites can be alternated by using techniques such as the ones above. By doing this, Spriters can create their very own "Sprite character" to use in "Sprite sheets" to show that the sheet was made by that spriter but the spriter must put a "sprite tag" on the sheet saying something like "Please do not steal" or "give credit" or "If you wish to put this on your site, do not remove this tag",etc. Sprites can be edited from any game where sprites are available. Making pictures with sprites is called a "Hoax" which is the sprites in a group or doing certain actions but a "Hoax" is not a true image from a game.

Depends on how they meant for it to be carried on then you can deem it as 'offensive'. It's okay when its used as a term of mutuality but there's a thin line between that and racial remarks/racism. Black isn't offensive, its how a race is defined. You have white/black/asian/indian etc. (Ethnicity is the another thing) Nothing offensive there. Hell, where I live a lot of people use the N word but no harm behind it, but how you spelled it is kind of offensive. (You coulda at least censored it.)

Where did you come up with this though? Curious....

I don't even think that this is even a rant.

I really don't like talking about racism, because I hardly under stand it, why are you mocking your on kind, not race wise but all of humanity. Were all the same just differant versons to suit the differant envirments we once lived in.
