If a manager was to make a racist comment towards you, what would you like? Them getting fired or not?

Suppose a manager said:

Show Hide

{user} is a paki

or any other racist remarks towards you.

Would you be happy if they just got let off with a warning because its just "one word" - especially considering they are a manager and should be setting an example?

Remember, staff have been fired instantly before for being rude (doesn't matter which management it was under).

I want to know the members opinions.

If you vote no, please explain why.

Yeah but this manager has a history of being rude anyway and childish.

If the member of staff had not been rude in the past (to our knowledge - which is the important thing, we can only warn for what we know), did it in a whisper, on the Habbo client, to someone else and not directly at anyone and then it was caught in a screen shot, and sent to another individual probably because the person who took the screen shot knew it would cause trouble then no... can't say I would fire 'em.

Random hypothetical situation, of course ;-)

I voted no, BUT, this is very unacceptable behaviour in my opinion, especially for a manager, so if it was posted on the forum, directly at the person, then perhaps they should get fired, but it all depends on the situation..

But a serious warning would be suitable in certain I think, if it was just a one-time thing.

EDIT; This is for on the forum by the way, if it's otherwise, I think it should be more lenient.

Considering they are a manager of that room, they should not be making such comments. If I am even slightly rude, I get kicked. No previous record? Unban my previous account and I will send you copies of about 10 PM exchanges complaining about the users behaviour with screenshot proofs.

Not to mention if I was staff and made racist comments towards a user, I would be fired instantly.

And saying the racism is just "one word" is pathetic. The one word is the main thing :S.

yes, although the position isn't exactly like a real life job if habbox wishes to portray a professional image they should follow a professional procedure.

It seems atleast one manager has voiced their opinion publicly and voted Yes as they clearly realise its a serious rule break.

I asked many other managers on MSN if they would expect people to be fired for it and they said yes. Hopefully they will vote here too.

If it was a member of my department and they made such comments on the forum Id ensure they were gone. However the forum and Habbo are completely different and of course Habbo evidence can be faked.

I would fire them if they had previous but a severe warning should definitely be on the cards, but in this case it looks like the person who showed you, Saurav is just trying to cause trouble.

I am trying to cause trouble or the person who showed me is trying to cause trouble?

Doesnt matter if it was on Habbo. The manager's department is habbo based and that room is their department. The manager or the GM/AGM have not said its fake. The staff rules state you can be fired for stuff you say on the Habbo Client and even MSN.
