gyy does not want your politics

Re: gyy does not want your politics

I closed Politics down because it was a breeding ground for personal attacks toward other members. Page after page would go by with member after member disrespecting one another, and it eventually started to overflow into GYY, P&R, and the other forums. The overall level of attacking each other is causing members to leave. I don't care whether politics exists or not--I just want to make sure that the harassment stops.

What do I do? Do we let the personal attacks continue? Is that what people want? If not, what can I do to prevent them or react to them?

well personally i didnt know anything about the politic things and u are well within ur rights to protect members from attacks of others and again personally i never used to go into politics myself, i,m actually a bit pissed @ the fact that the osama's threads were closed and some of my posts were deleted in them, not once did i make a personal attack on anyone in my posts but rather i tried to show some of the people who were throwing conspiracy theories about in it some objective explanations about those theories being present.. it was only a debate type thing and without pissing u off m8 i feel like i have been told off without actually being told off about some of my feelings on the subject... i honestly feel right now like the rights of ms members having a good debate has been taken away, i feel like a part of the forum has died

sorry m8, no offence but this is just my 2 cents

with the politics section closed, eventually things should correct themselves naturally one would think.

The posts below are samples of what I deleted. I'd like input from other members. Are these types of posts constructive, an attack toward another member, or both? Welcome or not?

well lets put it into simple term u may understand, your buddy and you are obama and the people behind the raid and the girl is the public and the media.... the girl finds out the whole truth and goes fucking ape shit, fights with ur buddy and starts spreading roumers to all her friends and before you know it her friends are all talking about it without actually knowing all the facts so little white lies creep into the story and more roumers are spread and before u know it u have a story which is completely wrong from the truth... now say this girl has a shitload of brothers and they find out about it, surely as brothers of the girl they will want to beat the shit out ur buddy...can u see where this is going yet ?

oh and one other thing, i,m sure if those brothers found out u knew about it they would kick the shit out of u 2

jesus motherfucking christ

thats exactly what al qaeda done when they read this story

Apparently it Ok to call people names if it is quoted from a movie or or a term you would use on friends of yours.

Re: gyy does not want your politics

It looked like a joke to me Chunky!

I'm normally one to stay out of this sort of discussion but I have to say that I don't see any personal attacks in thebanned1's posts.

Saying some of your posts are ridiculous is a lot different to name calling, even with a smile
