    I don’t know what’s wrong with my accent. Even when I dont stress R and D people still know I’m Indian in gaming.

      Maybe the cadence? And I wouldn’t say there’s anything wrong with your accent but rather it’s apparent what your mother tongue is.

      The Os, Us and the way indians speak (meaning, their choice of words and cadence) is usually pretty distinct as well.

      Probably because you are polite. Try trashtalking more. It seems the thing to do these days if you’re trying to pass as a white middle schooler boy.

        Nah. I don’t play in Indian servers cause they are the most toxic ones lol. White middle schooler boy is an old stereotype. Now every kid is doing it.
