This thread is for discussing recent bans. Don't discuss other topics here. Take it to website feedback if you disagree with a ban or want to raise an issue. Keep it civil.NOTE: For those of you who want to find the actual ABL thread where the bans are posted. Please look in here: https://tl.net/forum/closed-threads/ |
@JD You can believe that transgender is a mental disorder, but you can't be a dick about it on TL (just like every other topic). Showing an extra bit of respect when dealing with sensitive subject matter doesn't somehow make a person less opposed to the majority consensus, and it seems to help defuse the emotional side of things to make way for open and honest discussion. The posts you quoted were all pretty terrible and definitely actionable imo.
I'm surprised they went the "martyr route" with MDJ and didn't temp him for the mutilation remark. Seemed like an unnecessary barb meant to stir the pot.

@ MDJ ban
I didn't agree with his post, but felt what he said wasn't inappropriate or overly offensive. At first I was appalled that he was banned for having an opinion different to TL, but now I see he got banned for the "martyr" comment. But I wonder, had he made that post without the line at the bottom, would he have been banned or not?

Woah, Lightwip was banned. When and what for?

Both statements in MDJ's post coincided with each other warranted him the ban. Shoot, probably just the first sentence would get him a mod on his tail anyways. But by saying that flamebait statement and then adding basically "WATCH OUT FOR THAT RAGE," yeah, I see the martyring pretty clearly now. @ jd: They'll give "martyring" as the reason instead of "by request" for your ban I'll bet.  Do I really need to dredge up old bans of people expressing such opinions so that people realize the opinion is really not allowed on this site? It has nothing to do with any "flamebait," imho. Kwark for one has stated that people are not allowed to be ignorant with regard to gender issues. + Show Spoiler + qrs United States. April 03 2012 18:12.

User was temp banned for this post. Good for Scarlet, however, some ppl have a point in how we should be referring to Scarlet on the board. If you see the Hot Bid interview, there's an obvious adam's apple somewhere there.

Teamliquid in a nutshell.
AND it is a guy there is not debate about that. I dont see how you can fail to realize this. Just because he was born "feeling like a girl" does not mean he is a girl. He has a hung rock hard dick and that makes him a guy.
I dont see why people insist "he" or "she" goes past whatever gender they actually are.|
SO CHILL OUT AND SMOKE A BLUNT or hit da b0ng

I stand by the organizations ruling of disqualification 100%. It has nothing to do with being bigoted as Kwark the moderator cited as being the reason for closing the previous thread. ITS ABOUT FOLLOWING THE RULES PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

A man should not be able to qualify as Miss Universe; he may be wearing a skirt, but there's a smelly sausage under it. I'm not trying to come across as ignorant, but that's the simple truth and no amount of surgery can truly change what nature gave him. Well unless he wants to castrate himself, but that still wouldn't give him ovaries and a vagina, and his body will never naturally produce female hormones (without supplements) in the amount biological females produce it.

the whole point is you wouldnt change because you think of yourself as a man. thats why she changed herself because she was a woman with male body parts.
so then it comes to the issue of why he felt like a woman despite being born a man.
User was temp banned for this post. Here ya go, just a taste.
It's obvious that you have a distaste for KwarK and ignorant posts like MDJ's being banned, but for the love of God take it to Website Feedback instead of doing it here.

not only is that stupid statement totally wrong, but the way he presents his statement is troll baiting 101. even if you were to share that uneducated belief, you should be able to tell that is a stupid ass statement
|
and he only got a 2day temp.. not like it's a big deal considering he was baiting and assessing his own opinion without anything to back it up.

His wording was really bad though and I agree that it was a bit of a troll bait, stupid I would agree with as well. But he was not wrong.
I think a good way to put it is "you can have the wrong opinion, but your opinion can not be wrong" (unless you present it like it is a fact)

I get what you mean by this. But I'm afraid others are going to shred this post over the way you phrased that....

That was the reasonning behind a german justice decision which is quite different than the opinion of a random poster.
