Even if he's not a professional writer, if he's incapable of having an intelligent conversation without unnecessarily playing the race card at every turn then he doesn't belong on this, or any, site.
As mods, we could let it slide. And we have tried, and continue to try, to settle the issue with him privately. But if we let such messages pervade this site that wouldn't be fair to the members that make this site worth reading every day.

Nice to hear from a mod. I know your job is tough. I agree this doesn't have a place on a Skins board. That is why I was suggesting they drop it. This isnt the format or forum for that kind of thing.
Hey, while I have a mods attention. Could you possibly add a ( add to ignore list ) option when you click on a users name. I found this the only way to sanity before I left the Xtreme board. They just got to many people over there and it got out of control because the site didn't adapt to the increased users. They needed to implement some new structure like not letting new users post new threads or something like giving users age bracket they could choose to log into so people of closer maturity levels and skins experience could post to each other. Hopefully you'll are more open minded to this kind of thing as you gain more users. I wouldn't be surprised if you get more people coming from there to here like I did.
I was one of the early members over there so I got to see things change. I also have an internet marketing background so if you'll ever want a view from the outside, just let me know.
