Oh, I know this kind of thing isn't supposed to be point of discussion - but I do think someone is a little bored with real responsibilities from the amount and themes of things that are closed and deleted lately.

(Hint: IS IT ME??? I DON'T KNOW, PLEASE MAKE A FUNNY COMMENT ACCORDING!!!)

[notyoueither]

Yes.

You should respect your elders. Like me.

As I've said to Ming, the thread title was a rhetorical question meant for debate - not a condemnation.

...and as I also argued, the only ones who would support his action were those who consider themselves "old", yet most of them only joking

[Ming]

If you started a thread saying "are gays morons" or "are blacks morons" they would have been considered hate threads. This is the same thing. You can't just pick on a group of people. It's that simple.

[Alexander's Horse]

The mods are out of touch.

[Zylka]

How about: "Are all morons morons?"

YEEEEHAAAAAAWWW!!!

[Ming]

And AH is a troll... what else is new

[Alexander's Horse]

The mods don't understand youth today.

[Ming]

Like you do...

[Alexander's Horse]

I'm not a net nanny - that's a good start.

[Rasbelin]

Horsie,

is your reasoning now something like this?

Ming = a net nanny that doesn't understand teens
AH = a liberal person who understands abit everyone, but especially the youth in a such cruel society



/me assumes this thread will soon look like the previous one.

[Alexander's Horse]

Go away Rasbelin - you only make sense in Finland.

Zylka, Zylka, when are you going to understand? Ming spends about 5 minutes in the OT every day or so. He randomly closes a few threads and bans a few people to show MarkG he's on the job and then leaves. Its nothing personal. There is no use complaining.

The title is provocative, but the underlying issue is one that potentially could have been worth discussing. It might have been worth seeing where the discussion would go, and shutting it down later if necessary, or even changing the title of the thread.

Thank you voice of reason............

[DrSpike]

You're welcome.
