Point of locking "Lady Law Man" post?

Anyone else expect to see a ", Batman" following that?

You don't see the difference between a vulgar reference to a female and a racial slur? Hoe: tasteless and crass. The terms you mentioned: likely to get your ass beat.

The post was a tasteless parody of Ike. Do you really think people say, "Hey, Ike slapped Tina around, and Larry Fishburne looked really good doing it. Maybe I should try it."

Speaking of the number of the number of references to anal sex here...are we encouraging guys to pressure females into that?

Same kind of stupid crap that got Larry Whatzhisface in trouble at Harvard. Far too much is read into what was said. "Obviously, he said A, which can lead to B, which means he's endorsing C."

The original point of the post was to maybe get a bit of justification for the freezing. It didn't meet the 3 "reasons for freeze/ban" that Dynasty had mentioned in his "Advice" thread. No reason given, just wham...done.

I'd prefer that this thread die...there's no point in arguing anymore about what Ike meant. You see it one way, I see it another. I don't care to go over it anymore. Otherwise it'll turn into one of those "You're an idiot, do you see why" threads that has made the Politics section so stupid.

What I don't understand is why this post is not also locked. Can we have a simply policy that posts about posts which sucked also suck and should be locked.

Or you could just exercise your right to not read or respond to said threads. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Nobody wants OOT to turn into the Comment on Moderator Actions Forum.

Then be a little more conservative with your moderating.

This is Dynasty we are talkng about. When you give one of the biggest tools in OOT the power to moderate, this is what happens. I love his whole "check me out im so cool and powerful "you got bitch slapped"" comment.

[/ QUOTE ]

Agreed.

The whole "advocating violence and threatening language" stuff is total B.S. Its neither one when its an obvious joke. Was it funny? Not really. So just let it go.

The mod stated his terms, then he banned an account that did not fit in his terms.

In the military its called "chicken sh!t."

OH, so the consequences of the words to the speaker are more important than the consequences to the person being referenced. I see now. Makes perfect sense.

So, since there isn't such a thing as a "sexist slur" then it shouldn't matter. OH I get it.

oh, so since the concept that derogatory terms for women are just as bad as derogatory terms for any other group of people has yet to be named, we ought not to consider it. I see.

thanks for clearing it up for me.

no, advocating anal sex is not advocating violence.

, if you really think this was worse than the prank thread, you're way wrong.

I'm not commenting on the prank thread. I didn't read it.
I am talking about the Ike thread.

Jokes about wife beating are
1. not funny
2. wrong

so, in this instance, the moderators did their job

[/ QUOTE ]

Ok, ban somebody for a joke about wife beating.

Of course, it logically follows that the mod makes the following comment upon the fait accompli: "You just got bitch slapped."

Indeed.

I lost my sense of humor.

Ice Man likes rules and order as much as the next guy. Such are necessary components to an efficient society.

Ice Man does not like despots drunk on their own power who enfoce arbitrary rules to show off how bitchin they are.

Ice Man likes Schmitt's Gay and drinks it in large quantities.

Ice man-

You ok with me
