The original poster stated an opinion. If he's going to be warned for his personal views, as opposed to challenged, then there's nothing rational about your approach.

If you don't like rational debate, then there's plenty of other places around the net for you to go. I like attacking people as much as the next guy, but when I'm over there, I just simply play by the rules. It's not like you or I are forced to stay there, or are tricked into thinking we can slag off whoever we like and then later find out that we can't. It's all very up front and clearly stated in the FUA. Not every place on the net has to turn into a useless shitfest. It's ok to have diversity you know.

/thread.
I'm not sure if this is in response to me, but if so I'm not really sure what you are talking about. I'm not responding to the OP of this thread at all, I'm just addressing Gallstones point.

I think we should all go over to ratskep for our next drama and have it there to save spamming our own board up. :cranky: :pawiz:
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

Indeed.

You were persecuted?

I don't like the bitching about other forums here, it gives the impression that we have a problem with them.

So I wouldn't be allowed to make a post saying 'Fat people are awful' without getting a warning?

I guess the question is, why would you want to generalise and denigrate a group of people?

It gets complicated when the two membership sets overlap...

Same if there were people who were members both of the local catholic church, and the local presbyterian church...
