This issue has come up a number of times but has never been dealt with. What do we do when we have an offensive public log entry? Please vote in the above poll and/or leave comments and extra suggestions. Z

You know what? Some of your reactions to this situation are really making me consider if I've just entered the twilight zone. Mike, your friends really have no concept of their own rights and freedoms if that was their reaction, nor the value of the use of their own language. I wonder if you are aware of how freedom and equality is gained by minorities? I'll tell you a secret...it isn't because people "left them to it". I gotta tell you, I've asked my gay mates too and frankly you should have heard what they said because I can't repeat it on this forum without getting banned. If my friends were on here they would have an absolute field day wipping the floor with you people - and when I say wipping the floor with you I mean you would have so many facts, figures, websites and historical referrences coming out of your ears that you'd be willing to burn them off just to get rid of it all. Sort out the PL issue like DST says and stop trying to justify or belittle the original action. I'll set up a new thread where we can vote on the suggested options, which will hopefully resolve this farce of a conversation. And before anyone else makes any smart remarks about my temperament, yes, i'm at the end of my fuse on this one, so tread carefully or tread on a landmine. Z

With all due respect, and I appologise for the courseness of this example, black people consider the N word bad not because they believe black people are bad, latinos consider the S word bad not because they believe latinos are bad, this is exactly the same sort of derogatory word for gay people. Its a word that used to be used to slag gay people off, and therefore is not considered decent or respectful language in polite society, let alone with someone who you hardly know. Quite aside from the fact that saying "You give homosexuals a bad name" automatically implies you have a prejudice, there is absolutely no need to mention somebody's sexual preference whatsoever in commenting about their personality just as there is no need to mention someone's skin colour. I couldn't care less if you like to slag your mates off calling them stupid names and they arn't offended, that isn't the situation here. It's a joke that this is even being discussed as potentially not being offensive. This isn't prime minister's question time, it isn't and now in the actor's studio, this isn't a topic about what is offensive and what isn't. Someone has had a homophobic remark placed on their PL and they are, quite rightly, not happy about it. If you don't have something constructive to say in order to resolve the situation then you are just exhaserbating an already unpleasant situation for the relevant person involved. Z

Well just for referrence i have D*** ***d in mine. Not the same at all I know but offensive none the less. I'm wondering if this is a personal thing (not that that excuses it) or not, and if you have asked him to remove it? Although to be fair considering the comment you probably don't want anything to do with him let alone actually ask him something. Z

Good luck sorting things out, and hopefully it wont be forever. Head up. Z

Get well soon, rest up, then be fit and ready to get back in the game. Party Animal Z

Fen, you arn't wrong, nobody wants a really tedious serious forum, but once again you have failed to actually READ. Nobody said that "everyone's" posts are going to be reviewed before posting. It isn't about you or comments here and there, saying the odd funny thing etc, its about people who frequently and consistently spam topics and have been warned and still do it all the time. For those people, and those people only, a mod preview of their posts will be done. That's it. That's all. Its really not the socialist paradise you would like to paint. Anyway, I've tried to explain for you. Peace out. Z

Why is this topic suddenly all about Fenrir? It seems very simple. Mods are fed up with spam, Death Bell is an example of what will now be done with people who are blatantly spamming. Simple no? It was also stated that if you lose your tongue on this topic your posts here will also be counted as spam, which i think is kinda what you've done here Fenrir. Its pretty clean cut, just let the Mods do their job for once without the fight the system sign would you. Z

From Asterdai Entwined in The Weave The Great Spirit, The World Tree, the vast forest of the life and the song woven in its roots are you and me, there is a feeling here, its where we belong wandering this forest, trees tower above alone now, i am keeping you near i may lose my way but never your love in my heart now, i have nothing to fear we will allways be together, though you are gone in this vast forest of our life and our song.

I so want a pair of MD boxer shorts. The fact that my gf has just said "oh no" makes me want them more than anything in the whole world. Z

Bye Tzar, hopefully someday you'll return Z

I'm in, link us asap Z

Happy Birthday Storm, party til you drop. Z

Happy Birthday

[img]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp238/zleiphneir/silly%20stuff/peacebeer.jpg[/img] I had a friend of mine go to inspect the mess as you can see. This is the beer can my friend brought back for me to look at, the woman on the front looks strangely like Peace doesn't she, in fact it could even be her. The star mark can also be found on a rock and there is a large jug in those lands, I cannot post the images for you im afraid but any who want them just ask. I have wondered why people have not been attending the pubs as often. I say peace has been brewing her own personal necrovion beer and having occult parties with little regard for littering offenses.

Don't worry Watcher, I'll personally explain it for you. This isn't forum role play, this is a debate about a piece of IN GAME role play. The forum supports the game, not the other way around, if you can't see the difference, I will spell it out and point it out for you piece by piece but I thought the difference pretty obvious myself. Also, I am the moderator of this section of the forum, not Akasha, hence, I choose whether it stays open or not. However, might I add that on a personal level I agree with Akasha having closed that thread - and if there was a thread like that in my section I would also close it. If you want to debate the issue I suggest you start a new thread. Z

I have proof that she planted those cans and that that photo is a fake. Stay tuned for evidence of this hoax. Z

I'm terribly sorry...my mistake. Z

We Guardians have perfect aim. Don't be ridiculous. I've been over there and there is nothing but a big bonfire, some freaky hooded people, and some insane babbling priests...now the babbling may be down to the fumes I'll grant you, but that isnt the issue you brought up. Z

I'm saying that anywhere people drop rubbish is a potential deadly animal trap. You know...a beer can left on the ground can get an animal sticking its head in and it may be unable to remove it - eventually dying of suffocation. At least any beer cans thrown into the fire get melted. Z

It's called the way of cleansing...at least i'm using it for its purpose. Anyway, where else in the realm do you see a big fire capable of disposing of all the realms rubbish? The environmental issue is to those who DON'T use the fire and instead just leave things on the ground that don't decompose properly for little animals to get caught in! Z

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday man of the Island of Monkeys. Z
