This is nothing more than a subtle form of ethnocentrism or perhaps supremacism.

Ethnocentric (as defined by Google) is "based on the ideas and beliefs of one particular culture and using these to judge other cultures."
From Wikipedia: Ethnocentrism is the tendency to believe that one's ethnic or cultural group is centrally important, and that all other groups are measured in relation to one's own.
Thefreedictionary.com for Supremacist: One who believes that a certain group is or should be supreme.
Wikipedia for Supremacism: Supremacism is the belief that a particular race, religion, gender, species, sexual orientation, belief system or culture is superior to others and entitles those who identify with it to dominate, control or rule those who do not.

Calling players a lulwut is a defense measure designed to make the opponent appear as wrong or incorrect when they may simply be doing something differently from you.

Defining a lolwut is pretty much the same as defining the word "n****er" (and I hesitate to use that term).

You are doing nothing but giving people ammunition for continued hatred of anyone who's name is not recognized.

Elgatodiablo has been responding based on my view of this term, I believe. He is calling you a lolwut to try to prove a point. You have done something he does not approve of, you are not in his circle of friends, and therefore, you must be a lolwut to be despised and ignored.

Stop supporting segregation.

Hmm ... sounds a lot like the post I made in another thread that got hidden because I made claims that thread was ... as you so eloquently put it ... Ethnocentric.

I find it puzzling how you can get away with this but I cannot? Double standard? Eh ... better not say that ... I might get hidden or worse.

EDIT: Your words here ... "Calling players a lulwut is a defense measure designed to make the opponent appear as wrong or incorrect when they may simply be doing something different from you." Well ... then I guess you disapprove of all the anti-pirate threads out there? And pirates demanding 100% of the cargo or 20 mil in credits from a trader is perfectly okey-dokey ... I mean ... isn't that pirate "doing something different from you?"
