"The following are prohibited:
•Racist, sexist, or bigoted comments or slurs in any form (including images)."
So I just read the "new" forum rules and apparently sexist remarks are bannable.
This should mean I whenever I read "sloot" on this forum the poster should be banned.
I'm interested in how this will turn out.
I also read this as it's not okay for me to call a female a sloot but it's okay for me to call CBB a sloot because we're both male and it's not sexist.
What if I call a transsexual a sloot?
Is that sexist?
I will call my legal team for clarification (the laws of do NOT Canada apply).
In the mean time, CBB s the sloot among slots, a true sloot master, master of sloots, and good sloots gonna gif!
and what about sammiches?
If I tell a female poster to STFU and go make me a sammich is that sexist?
What if I tell BH the same thing?
Furthermore;
What if I'm insulting an entire nation, does that make me racist?
If I say Americans are clueless am I being racist as a Canadian since we're all basically from the same places?
If that's the case is " 'Murica" now a bannable word?
Oh my.
I just want to lift heavy sh*t and put it down again, how do you expect me to remember all this??

They should stop wasting their time on such idiocy and focus on ridding the site of people who say sh!t like this:
From the Misc "What would you do to her?" thread:
"Walk up to her, then turn 360º and walk away"
If they would just ban stupid then 99% of the other problems would leave with it!
Edit: It occurs to me if they ban stupid then who's gonna buy all the sups?I'm a sad little man

Basically this. Most posters can tell the difference between a joke between posters that have been bantering for a while and the right down ugly chit. General Misc is full of really ugly chit and people there aren't joking either. I remember when the news came out of a lot of sexual assaults on university campuses, and a list of the worst offenders, somebody posted something like "bishes out there are getting wet just thinking about applying there". That's not even the worst comment.
Although considering how far gone the General Misc has become, the only way mods can possibly enforce the rule is to ban 99.99% of posters there.
inb4 I get told to shut up and make a sammich.

Here is my take on it, and I will get flamed for this but whatever. This is an open forum on a website that is owned by a private company. They could ban whoever whenever for whatever they want. We don't pay for the privilage to post here so there it is. However, to say that something offends you and a person should not say it is a very conceited concept. Why is your right to not be offended more important than their right to say it? And to claim moral decency, well that is just a matter of geography. A person can say whatever they like, and I can tell them I disagree with them as much as I want, but I most certainly don't have the right to force them to shut up.
