Doesn't Tel-Aviv RP his leader of ZA as a black guy? David-Whatshisnuts or whatever?

Julian Bashir was an Arab...or at least was played by one.

Im pretty sure Tel's character is white.
or at least, for transmission bars, he used a white guy.

So you're saying that the statement "Not going outside reduces the amount of dark pigment in your skin" is illogical?

You missed the point. I found your original post offensive. To equate the lack of farming in space with a lack of a specific race of human being in the future goes overboard. In reference to the Game Freelancer....who knows why the continent of Africa is not represented, but I doubt it is beause of a lack or "Farming" or "Agricultural" activities. It is a Trollers topic tucked into the general discussion section, posted in a way and making references that aim to harvest a reaction.

My BAF character is black, transmission bar and everything ( including the genitals of course)

Did you even read my initial post?
I chose farming as the main point because for thousands of years it has been one of the most common things to do outdoors.
edit: and ffs, they're called trolls.
