i dont see why deviant topics can't be discussed in a mature manner. so what if it is deviant, deviancy is only problematic to the intolerant. this intolerance is not just 'not accept the position,' it is an inability to entertain the position in a fair manner. whoever wrote that long thing servolisk posted has one thing right, that in a conflict over a controversial topic, the blame need not fall on the guy who brought it up, but perhaps on those who made it a big deal. who is to blame, would be a question related to 'what sort of community' should be here. is it a tolerant and mature community, then push back those who make a big deal out of 'deviant' things, the alternatives are not that appealing, or well defined.
and i dont think being physically attracted to anything should be offensive. the controversy in pedophilia is the child abuse, which is clearly not shown in chibi's behavior. the stigma when it comes to chibi is misplaced.

What does it matter what you find attractive? It's completely irrelevant. It is all about you choose to deal with it. Afaik Chibi never touched an under aged girl let alone consent with one;(

yeah that's why I've used the phrases "physically mature" and "prepubescent", only using actual ages where necessary

Yes. I just wanted to make it clear to those who havent bothered to look up the words.
But I think we are in agreement.

Its been stated multiple times, chibi wasnt banned because people are ignorant about his views; the mod team (mostly) looked past that from the getgo and made the decision based on the fact that he couldn't just drop it, deviant or not. I mean yeah beyonder hardcore provoked him but it would have happened anyway most likely.
Like I said, Chibi was either naive or just didnt care if he was banned or not. I dunno.

Guys on the internet gawking over underage girls isnt all that big of a deal.. it happens every forum.. Just look at the Crazytown girl.. she was turned into a pedo icon and most of the internet embraced it Chibi took the educated approach to the subject and got shot down by people that are closed minded

oneofthem
rape is sexual deviance
its not a problem of intolerance, it's a problem of where you draw the line.
he was shot down by people who drew that line on the wrong side of Chibi and AFAIK asked him to no longer cross it. and he was incapable of doing so.

Entirely, but that didn't stop it from becoming a destructive force on the forum

Fuck, why do all the good threads pop up when I have so much work to do. Damn you genetics!
And speaking of new mods, imho, I think Steve should be reinstated as mod again.
Strafe would be an entertaining mod too, now that I think about it .

touche
i just looked up idyllic cause i felt it didnt mean what i thought it was and i was right
i meant people who like ideals. i wasnt kidding when i said i was tired and at a loss for words
going on that thought process, it was understandable to me if not acceptable exactly what happened.

I just want to make sure I understand your post. talking about pedophilia = sexual deviance = child rape?
How did you get here?

Yeah I remember the lazytown threads. That was fucking dumb I don't get what the hell was going on. Chibi did not (and does not) find her attractive btw. Can anyone link the original thread btw ? I want to check something
edit: critical typo :o

it wasnt about the rape it was about "Deviant" and why it isnt intolerance, but where to draw the line. Intolerance isnt the problem with deviance. there are obvious examples of deviance that should not be condoned. i.e. rape. however this examle of deviance is "on the fence" if i may use the analogy. My point again was that its not intolerance, its where to draw the line.

ah. slippery slope. I understand.
