Racist/Sexist/Whatever... :-@

Published on February 18, 2004 By Deano_Oz In WinCustomize Talk

I'd really like to know what the policy is here on the Forum... I've seen a fairly nasty "sexist" remark regarding a "nice WB skin", and I've left an appropriate reply. I only wonder if it had been me and said... "Dont be so damn black!! .... Dont be so damn jewish!!.... Dont be so damn muslim!!.... Dont be so damn asian!!.... Dont be so damn straight!! .... I wonder how long my lifespan would be here?

I am a gay man... a proud one too,... but to see such comments such as "Dont be so damn gay!!"... it really makes me wonder... Dean

I wonder if it would be possible for you admins to have the message board etc. set up to send you an alert when certain words are posted. That might make it easier for you guys to deal with these sorts of problems as soon as the occur.

well that will be no good cuz then it gives the rest of us no time to catch the nasty remark posted! hehe j/k

Doreen sees Jafo, Koasati and Paxxy getting IM's every 5 secs for "He said the word "you suck" on the msg board please remove it now!"

hiya sis

as long as people realize we don't read every comment on every skin and if someone is offended by something they need to bring it to an admin's attention (email being the prefferred method unless it's dire and then IM is cool) then it should work ok.

Hello bro

why don't you guys read everyyyyy single comment on everyyyyy single skin aren't you admins? hehe

(course they think that, loads lighter on AU so it's not a prob to catch most comments)

If he did, he would have to quit his day job, kiss his wife goodbye and forget about sleeping.

Wow, talk about cleaning out the closets. A thread that starts out with a member revealing to the community that he is a homosexual. Yeah, um, like I really needed to know that. >

Oh yeah, I'm a heterosexual and proud of it.

What makes our on-line sites such great places to 'be' is the wide diversity of people...races, cultures, etc......it's worth the effort to maintain their appeal to all....

BTW, Chas....you're Heterosexual?....I didn't really need to know that...

I'm "human", and ambivalent of it....
