vince - can the knee-jerk reaction and read back over what novice said and my reply.



See - novice says 'how can we be everywhere - mo' bettah you report shit' (I'm paraphrasing, can you tell?) - I say 'we do report shit'. You seem to think that I said 'we do report shit and nothing gets done' - I didn't - by showing that I reported stuff and action was taken you are proving my point - members do report stuff that needs attending to. And you are also proving novice's point that when stuff is reported it is attended to. You are missing the key point though that novice appears to be complaining not enough shit is reported and that I disagree because I know I'm not the exception.

Do ya understand now?



That's a different point - but it is part of the deal of having a report button. What fuck more do you want from members - we can't gather evidence and get answers out of people like you can - we have to hit report based on what we see in front of us, or feel about a post.




More mods, smaller quorum. Not rocket science.

This thread did not need to get this long and contain as much bile as it does before the member was banned. I'm far from the only one who thinks that.

Under normal circumstances a post like this would have been left as part of the thread so that there was some form of public record confirming that the member was either banned for being a returning banned member, or for breaking the rules in some other way, since it is part of an active thread, not spam nor made by a minor.

We have however opted in this case, to break procedure because quite honestly, no one needs to be reading this kind of shit, and deleting the post would have removed the reason we have the procedure in the same place.

You know what would have been amazing? If none of you had responded to the original poster's idiocy and just let it die within a page.

Self-moderation.

Of course, that would be too much to ask.

What the fuck are you having a go at me about - I didn't come on to this thread til the 126th post, after at least two members of the mod/admin team were already on thread.

I said none of you implying everyone who indulged the idiotic original post.

You joined in so you are included in the statement. But it wasn't directed at just you.

Obviously.

Well yes, we should just leave that kind of stuff there to fester and not say a thing. That is idiotic. If someone is talking shit you just sit there and not say anything hope they go way? Life doesn't work that way for everyone thank goodness.

This post is original and insightful. I've never seen anything like it on the Internet before. Kudos to you for not being hypocritical at all.

I'm sorry, is this real life? Oh no, wait...it's an internet forum. This has no comparison to that link.

So it's not like his "talking shit" had any REAL effect on anyone. His post also wasn't making any kind of significant statement other than "Look at me! I have a belief I know is controversial and wrong, but I'm gonna defend it because I like the attention". It was nothing more than abject stupidity.

My problem is everyone acts outraged that this went on as long as it did...well when you keep responding to someone who is so clearly in this just to argue to the end, what the hell did you expect?

Why everyone didn't call him out for being wrong once and then let it go is beyond me.

Finally, I was just trying to make a point that would make your job easier. Self-moderation containing several people stating the original poster is clearly wrong and a troll should have been enough to condemn this post to page 5 already. Instead, everyone complains about the poster and then complains about the mods taking so long to control the poster.

I was only trying to make a point to make your job easier. Next time I'll be sure to argue senselessly and complain about how terrible you are at your job.

Yes, me trying to defend what has to be a difficult job to be moderators is a hypocritical statement.

I understand what you're getting at and your sarcasm is truly revolutionary.

Perhaps you could throw in the phrase interwebz and a smiley you trend setter you.

Transgendered folk are so hated way for just being who they are. It's all so pointless, so unfounded, etc.

Most people are comfortable with their gender, but wonder if you weren't? Life would be unbearable to go through, as our gender is most crucial to our identity. What torture to live as a gender with whom you cannot identify with at all!

We are obligated as citizens of this world to accept who a person really and accord him or her the right to live as the person he or she is.

Transgendered people: you are safe and secure with Bigbull29:smile:

Be proud of who you are! And those who live openly as transgendered, you are beyond courageous. Bless you all!

There is so much hate in this world...what can I do but try to love those who everyone hates......

Long live the Freedom Riders. Maybe we need something similar for hermaphroditic humans, maybe once a year...

I understand your point and it is generally a good idea to follow the rule 'don't feed the trolls'. But when it comes to hateful statements such as the OP made here, they shouldn't be ignored. Words do hurt, regardless of whether they are in a book or a newspaper or a internet forum devoted to sex. Try to put yourself in the shoes of the group being ridiculed.
