Please can you address the comments regarding how we can have the hotties section, and porn references (see would you thread) but not be able to state our opinions?
Go in there & find where I talk about beating women or slapping them in the face with my genitals. Don't drag forums where that content is approved into yet another bash "the man" fest over someone who was warned about his behavior & went about his ways regardless. Because that's going on here.
Lol I can't it's blocked...and you know what we are saying...I am sure Julie U finds the hotties section distasteful and probably avoids backlot, so why not avoid the comments. How is the content in back lot or hotties approved and by what process?

You tell me what is cool or funny about beating a woman? Don't change the subject here. I don't post scantily clad women in the status updates.




Also there is a hot male section in there. Nice try

He was being controversial. There wasn't any seriousness to it. There's no difference where you are posting things. The mods have spoken, status = forum, forum = status.

This is ridiculous. Bottom line is this should have been a temp ban at the absolute most.

Honestly I think even that is too much, but I guess I could have at least accepted that. A permaban for off-color comments is just plain ridiculous though and completely unacceptable.

Well touche! But I am not changing the topic, I am just looking at it from a site wide level; but you still haven't said why it's okay in some places and not in others.

The comments can be hidden and collapsed, just like a subforum has to be entered.

It's not what was said which is the issue, it's the censorship and resulting ban.

Just went to that link. First post is a mod talking about doing vile disrespectful things to women that most feminist, hell women in general wouldn't condone. Not to mention the act being illegal in a large part of the world. Offensive, I think so.

Next a mod essentially called a girl a dude. That girl is someones sister, mother etc.
...
If you want to go on here saying the same rules apply to the forums and status updates then moderate the forums accordingly.

Status bars are meant for quick, opinion based conversation just like the hotties, backlot etc sections are meant for whatever they are meant for.

People have to actively click on the comments section of a status to read them, just like one has to click on the hotties tab to go see almost naked chicks on there.

this board has been slowly going downhill. Honestly i won't be renewing my membership again. This board has really changed since going corporate.

Rosie was joking around. Nothing he said was that f@#ked up from what i heard. Banning is pretty severe. A suspension i could understand. A ban is idiotic at best.

Corporate Amurika at its finest.

In the old days when people got pissed at each other it was acceptable to have a scuffle, throw some fists, and get past it. Now, you have all sorts of sissies running around being "offended."
sir you are offending me! i am not a baby!

Ban SlowTeg!! lol

I can't imagine what would happen if the person who was offended by Rosie's posts ever accidentally read some YouTube comments... Or ever accidentally stumbled upon 4chan.
