    I get so much crap from users on almost every server I join. It's kinda funny, but it does get annoying after awhile. So what do you guys think?

    I don't think it's racist but personally I've always wondered why there are so many Minecraft usernames with the word "asian" in them.

    Well, mine has an actual backstory. Throughout my early high school years and part of junior high, I was simply known as, "Asian". The first few times, it was just because I was Asian. But it just caught on, everyone called me Asian. After that, it wasn't ever used as a derogatory term. Of course I wasn't the only Asian student, but I was infamous for being "The Asian".

    Most likely due to Minecraft's playerbase to contain a lot of Asians? xD I've also seen some African Americans name their characters asian things... Maybe it's just a fad? xD

    Of course not. It doesn't matter about the skin colour, hair colour, whether you're ginger or fat were all the same :)

    "TheFrikinAsain" is fine, but I think "TheFrikinAsains" would be offensive.

    Your username is not racist.
    It is vulgar.
