I for one and am sick and tired of reading shit on this site that people refer to as being "gay", "homosexual", "queer", "fag" and all that other shit.

to me this is no different that racism.

its immature and completely unnacceptable, to me, and the TOS of this site.

i'm not asking you all change your minds about what you think about gays and lesbians, but try and keep that shit to yourself, and lets start following the TOS and be more respectful of other people on this site.

thank you
joey_ronaldo
i agree
Marco.
yeah... and lesbians are cool biggrin.gif just kiddin...

yup we should minimize or hold the use of these words... it is offensive and can start off an informal arguement which will also lead to what we call... a ban?
kid_a
the use of any sexual remarks, when used in a derogatory way cannot be accepted.

Ok, how about you start first by not saying "shit" ?

Christoval
shit is not a derogatory term, not meant to single anyone out.. homophobic remarks are.

grow up a little. saying shit, and calling someone a fag are hardly the same things.

this isn't me being a stickler for the rules, its about respect for other people.

Respect isnt like an opinion, where anyone can get one.
Respect is earned.

Stop being so stupid, even if he was gay(which he isn't) he still has a right to respect and not be insulted.

Think before you type.

Oh come on, The 92nd Fish, don't be so naive! I'm afraid I'm simply not going to get all uptight over the issue and so i made a joke. Although i didn't know for certain i was pretty sure revarsenal isn't gay, and my post was supposed to be in jest.

Ho hum...
Christoval
the placing and tming of it was uncalled for. you mocked him and the post. disrespectful.
Inclined
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't "shit" is Obscene ?
As you said that we should follow the ToS (and I agree), then saying "shit" is against the ToS
Christoval
If i said "you're a piece of shit" then yes you are 110% right bizh0..

but in teh context he used it, its nothing more then a word used to show his emotion and feelings of a certain overuse of the word gay.

basically. its not directed at anyone as an insult.

Yes, you're right.

"and lets start following the TOS", I found that funny since he doesn't even follow it himself and tells/asks others to do it, thats what I'm on about.
Mike_7
so we cant say for ex...ur gay....but we can say...that game is gay?
shutoutj
No derogatory usage whatsoever. I think.

its easier for everyone if you just dont say it. simple... as

Bizh0, you have just posted for no other reason than for a fight. Did him saying 'shit' offend you? Has saying it offended anyone? Please members, if saying 'this shit' when describing something someone has taken offence to, has offended you come forward.

Saying what he did and calling someone a 'fag' is completely different. If you don't know that, then you have less sense than I thought. Why look for an argument? It is incredible how arguments follow you around, it really is. blink.gif

And RevArsenal, I have probably been guilty of calling someone a fag before, so I apologise buddy, did not mean to offend. sad.gif I'll be sure not to do it again. thumbsup.gif
melburn
sorry ive said queer a few times and i wont post it again
Sony-Fan

ALL KIDDING ASIDE

The use of the word "gay" in a post would be ok if you were referring to being gay as being happy.

Now if your trying to use a derrogatory term to describe someone I pray to the GODS OF MADRID (or who ever u worship) that you do not do it in sp.

ZERO TOLERANCE WHEN IT COMES TO STUFF LIKE THAT.
If you are attacked in such manner please let me or any other Teammember know ASAP so we can evaluate the situation and act accordingly.

We appreciate all the members here at SP making us the fastest growing site in the net, but if members act this way, we rather not grow a bit than to have these prejudice-prone people here at SP.

i falt Bizh0 was the G word
Carlos™
yeah, any use of those remarks is bad.
Most of the time though they are said w/out meaning any harm, so plz let that person know it offends you, and I'm sure that he/she would apologize.

If they dont, PM me or any of the other GM's and we'll make sure they dont do it again.
Cheers.

Is that joking ?
If so, choose the right place and time for it, joking about someone being gay in a thread about the usage of the word isn't exactly smart wink.gif

i dident sey Bizh0 is gay i could meen he is god like for all you no
Nani's Manhood
I have a gay guy in my college and he doesn't care at all. Most gays are loud, flamboyant and eccentric and generally don't care. I know there has been a enquiry to see whether an Spppl team which is unholy has many homosexual members (name disclosed) laugh.gif

its very annoying, but to be honest, people havent gotten it through their head that its not kosher. its very rude.

So someone might like the same sex. if they are lesbians we say its cool, if not then its an insult?

double standard there no?


Let people do as they please with their lives. its not up to anyone of us to say if its right or wrong, or worse yet, ridicule them for it.
