When she says "when they are basically acting as such" makes it seem like she is saying it's true. yes it's all opinion but when people come to a general consensus on someone and how they act, views get created so if she says someone is a whore and believes it to be true, it is still a personal attack whether. It goes the other way as well, if I believe someone isn't a whore but someone calls said person a whore, it can still be regarded as a personal attack.
Yeah we agree here Santana I'm just reinforcing that it's wrong to call people out over personal opinions when they act like their opinion is superior.
There may be some people that believe Bianca to be a whore
:>
That is strictly meant as an example, I don't mean any insult by it. I know you prolly understand that but I want to make it clear.

And Bianca it is still a personal attack. Just "because she is acting as such" does not give you the right to call her out on it and call her incredibly demeaning names. Your opinion (key word) is not superior to anybody else's.
What you view as morally correct is not the same as how others see it. She (apparently) doesn't care, or think what she does is wrong (if she did, she probably wouldn't be doing those things) and it is not right for you to be calling her out on it, talking down to her, and insulting her.
I don't agree with her actions (especially because what she did on cam with Erik is technically CP) but that doesn't mean I have the right to insult her and talk to/about her the way you did.
john posted things got misinterpreted Jay clarified people still bitched then Will won the thread (his comment is on the previous page)
Wow. Alright, let me straighten a few things out here.
First of all, this was not a power trip by one mod or a group of mods. Every single one of the mods approved of this measure, including myself.
Second of all, it wasn't one thread or one post or one single thing that caused this measure. It was a culmination of weeks of stuff. This rule is not in place solely because of the fight in the Fail/Owned thread early tonight.
Third of all, no one came crying or bitching to us that something was wrong. It was completely us.
All of the mods got together and agreed that the content posted by several members was just not acceptable. So this rule is designed to curb that. It is NOT intended to take away freedom of speech or any bullshit like that. We're not going to go around banning everyone who uses the words "faggot" and "nigger" in jest. However, we do have a problem when those words start to get thrown around hatefully. That stuff wouldn't be tolerated on any other forum, and I don't think it's too much to ask to use a little more discretion before you hit the "Post Comment" button.
I just want to ask a favor of all of you: Stay the course and give this a try. Like Tim said, 95% of the activity on the forum is completely unaffected by this rule, and after a while I'm sure few of you will even remember it's in place. If that's too much to ask, you are welcome to leave, but I ask on behalf of the mods that we try this out and see what happens. I really think this could make our forum better in the long run.
Feel free to message me on FB or on here if you have concerns. I really hope you'll give this a chance.
that is not bringing up her family, wishing she would die, etc so i dont see how it a personal attack me calling her a whore because IMO she was acting like it is like me calling someone retarded when they said a retarded statement get what im saying?
