I understand that words like "Gay" is now modern slang for stupid, and "poof" is modern slang for "woman".

Example:
A: "2+2 is 5"
B: "Haha, you're gay"

Or

"Ha you can't live a 20KG bar? You poof...."

All the same, it is still offensive to others.

Many people are beat up for being gay. Would the judge say "It is used by a great number of english speaking folk you cant expect people to follow this rule"?

It's offending people and it's victimising not only them, but their sexuality.

This evening I have seen two posts aimed towards me attacking my sexuality. What price do I have to pay to view these forums? Being called Homo, poof, fudge packer, cock knocker, fag e.t.c?

It's a big issue. Everybody calls each other faggot for failing a quiz, whatever. But society and government authorities have done nothing about it.

It looks like SG will follow that trend.

I don't know, life is crazy, but I ain't stopping ya gareth. good to back ain't it?

there is a bit of a difference between using "gay" as an insult and beating up someone for their sexuality you know :rolleyes:

LOL! Gareth is suing me in the Court of Justice for discrimination :clapwap:

He interprets "butt munch" as homosexual, where I use it as one who eats rump steak. And fudge packer, is simply a word for someone who eats chocolate.:D :D

No he is writting a letter of complaint to Lior, Matt and Vbulitten for the way people have been handling situations.

- fairly serious from what he has told me but I wont go into specifics.

yeah, they can't do anything, unless they have a clause which says you can't use this forum you purchase from us for comments such as ...

whatever the idiot with a golf ball for a brain is bitching about.

I have been a member for a bout three years now and this is what I want:(H)

A clear code on racism/discrimination to be developed, and a strict policing of the code to be in place.

From what I can see some people are being made examples of while others are allowed to say whatever they want as the admins are afraid of confrontation with certian individuals.

Same rules for all, mods included....

If I break the rules I want the same punishment as both the mods, newbies and veterans alike....

I know its laughable but it shouldn't, a mod can't go break the a rule then ban a normal member for doing the same....

Who is policing the police?

He says that he has already wrote e-mails to Matt and Lior asking that the person who deleted him be disciplined or else he will write to Vbulletin and SG's licence will be removed:confused:

I still don't think Vbulletin would go that far though.

look, theres mods that are doing stuff that's bloody funny, why do you think I got banned.

If whoever did stuff to his account gets banned, I'd like to see the other mods that had an influence into me getting screwed over being disciplined too.

I got banned from the SGF forum, because someone seen my name in an argument and immediately presumed I was guilty.

hmmm .... that's double standards I say.
