santo=dorf Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 QUOTE(blacksaturdayrevisted @ Jan 9, 2005 -> 02:07 PM) As for the "disrespecting moderators decisions" how is it ok to call in question George W.

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 QUOTE(winodj @ Jan 9, 2005 -> 07:37 AM) Heres my side of the story: A long time ago, there were dinosaurs. Then they died out and other stuff happened, somebody said some stuff and then it got removed and everyone decided to eat pie. Apple pie with melted Cheddar Cheese on top. And it was good. Hope that clears it all up for you Apple Pie with Cheddar cheese on top sounds nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 A man surveys the women in a nightclub, picks out the most attractive, and takes a seat next to her at the bar. He uses all his best lines, but gets nowhere. Finally, he reaches into his pocket, takes out a small box, and pulls a frog out of it. "Cute," says the woman. "Is that a pet?" The man smiled. "Yes, and he's good at doing tricks too." "Like what?" "He eats pussy. Come back to my place and I'll prove it to you." Once in the bedroom, the girl strips off and puts the frog between her legs. The frog doesn't move. After a couple of minutes, the woman looks at the immobile frog, and finally demands, "Well?" The man shakes his head sorrowfully, picks up the frog and says, "Okay, you idiot, I'm only going to show you one more time." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I think everyone just needs to calm down. All of the Admins and Mods do a fantastic job here. If it wasn't for them this site wouldn't even exist. Everyone needs to just calm down. It's one thing to have a dissenting opinion. It's quite another thing to just go and insult someone.

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Ok, here's something of an ethnic joke. There's 3 guys walking down the street: An Englishman, and Irishman and a Polak. All of a sudden, the grim reaper appears in front of them and says "All of you are going to die right now but I'll take pity on you and let you choose your method of death. You can either take a bullet to the head, drink poison or get the Aids virus." The 3 guys think about it for a second then the Englishman pipes up. "Blimey, if I gotta go then I'll take one for the queen, shoot me." So the Grim reaper shoots him in the head killing him instantly. Next goes the Irishman. "I'll take a drink of the good stuff as my way to go." He drinks the poison and keels over. Now only the Polak is standing and he;s got this devious look on his face like he's gonna fool someone. "I'll take the Aids Virus he says with a smirk" The Grim reaper shoots him up with a really potent strain of Aids and the Polak looks at him and says......."HAHA, Joke's on you.......I was wearing a condom" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take on this whole thing is that if you don't have a thick skin then you don't need to be here. There's always gonna be some give and take but even if it goes a little far it's only a website for christs sake. Even the worst personal attack threads blow over with a little time and everyone is cool about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There could be zero gay members here, zero Jewish members here, zero black members here, yada yada... and those of us who care about such things would STILL strive to maintain a civil and respectful decorum around here when it comes to ethnic/social/religious group affiliations. Which doesn't mean all of that and much more can't be discussed here. It is discussed and debated and argued. But the debates are actually meaningful if people use the littlest bit of restraint and rise above the attacks and the slurs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact that that is one common use for a term IN NO WAY means that it has to be condoned or allowed here if the 'official' decision is that the board is better off without that or similar denegrating language being used. There's a gajillion porn sites out there but it doesn't mean that this site is going to allow the posting of similar graphic content, and this is the same thing. There are all kinds of forums in which anyone who wants to can converse that way, or any other way they choose. The high school halls still seem to work, so keep it there and rise above it here.

It's how when someone uses the word gay, everyone freaks out like he just said "OSAMA BIN LADEN IS BOSS". If some new guy slips, who gives a f***? But no, there's always the guy who'll say "You know, that word isn't allowed here" and then everyone flips out and then another huge debate on the word gay happens.

aboz56 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I really don't understand what is so hard to understand about this. The admins and mods get together and made decisions, most always approved by Jason and that is how things are done. Who is anyone else to come on here and question the decisions that are made? If you want to use the word gay or any other bashing, start your own website and have at it. This site is so lenient about what we allow, yet when anyone is asked to do something like remove a signature for its content or not to use certain words, it's like we are asking people to walk on water. Everyone should understand that it is no one's right to post whatever they see fit on this site. You are fortunate that Jason provides this public forum in which we can all have these discussions. To constantly bash and second guess decisions that are made is unnecessary and also disrepectful to those who put the thought and time into making them.
