....... that's kind of what I said, only you flipped it around, excellent way to debate!

now..being a moderator, I'm sure a lot of people like to see that you "see so many dumbasses on the boards." On the other hand, I don't think anyone is a dumbass on these boards. True, at times, people say things that shouldn't be said, nevertheless, it's a community, and everyone has a voice, so is someone to be viewed as a dumbass because of something they say? I think not.
Further, being a moderator, shouldn't you take a somewhat non-biased stance in the matter, instead of drawing the conclusion of someone being a dumbass? Maybe it's just the situation? I leave it at that, you have proved to be an unworthy opponent in this debate. I need a challenge, a boulder in the road, not a pebble.

When I contribute to GC, I try not to think of my posts as worthy for debate. I didn't even know that I was in the middle of one until you called me unworthy!

Mods try to be unbiased, but the actions of a certain few have proven that they are worthy of that unfortunate label. Again, that's my personal opinion, and I can't speak for the other mods, but I know that some of them feel the same way.

As for a challenge, I suggest you look elsewhere, because I have better things to do.

Thumbs up

OTW, I totally agree! Notice that the people on this board who think that SH80 hasn't done anything are the ones who weren't here when she did and those posts were so offensive that they were deleted.

You know that lots of the mods agree!

Here's a bit of info for the members who believe moderators do the banning: John, the Administrator, does the banning. Moderators are middle management. We still have someone to report to.
Members complain to us, afer trying to moderate the situation, we go to the higher-ups.

OK-OK already! This is like beating a dead dog (cat) with a stick!

Any time a person is "judged" by another and punishment (as in banned) is doled out, you WILL have the freedom fighters come forward-and thank GOD for that! I did not read all the prev. posts, but I can still have an opinion as can EVERYONE, based on the posts that were CURRENT! Lets just say there are two sides to this arguement and nothing EITHER side says will chage the end result and that is SH80er is BANNED! This has and always will be a PASSIONATE ideal...freedom of speech...there are times when people MUST see the gray areas. Everything isn't black and white. If I stop looking beyond my own nose, I WILL trip up! It appears that some people can't handle anything outside their own view of life. I admit, I have been guilty of this myself. What I really want to know is- is this most recent situation as HORRID as the statements that were edited? I can't believe it is anywhere NEAR as antagonistic as the deleted posts.
Could we have schultz (please don't yell at me I know I got it wrong) banned because I didn't like his thread about ANAL SEX!
When I no longer feel that the people here are expressing themselves honestly and without fear, that is the time I will move on-COOKIES AND ALL!

well, as far as shultzz is concerned, he just says something stupid and then goes away. kind of like when you're channel surfing and run across howard stern on E! making some nekkid chick sit on his lap. you just say, oh howard, and press the remote. it doesn't really bug your brain.

I would say I'm one of the least easily offended, least PC people here, and I agree with the action that's been taken. Pleading innocence/naivete only goes so far.

Okay this thread is on its third page and I think two of those three arent even about what the thread was supposed to be about. SH80er started this thread and she simply apologized to those she may have offended. As we all know, she is now banned. I really dont think there is any reason to keep this thread open anymore since it looks like its just starting to flame. This thread isnt about flaming one another and thats what it has turned into.

Hmm, I was wondering the same thing.
Can we say favortism?

ALL of his posts has been offensive, unlike mine.
And, yes, I did post some dumb things in the past, but that was LAST SUMMER. I'm sure if we digged up everyone's history, we would find something nasty.
And, then again, some of you all are holier than thou.

For the last time, what posts were so offensive that they had to be deleted? The post that people found the most offensive, the chicken one in AKA, is still there.
