Yet another strike against civil rights when it has to do with gay people

[Capt Dizle]

MTG, you can stick it in your ear if you can find the pus filled hole on your bloated head.

[MrFun]

Oh boy -- I don't think Capt knows what kind of powers moderators have on here.

[Capt Dizle]

He only thinks he is a God. I've never been impressed.

[MrFun]

So MTG -- will Capt's execution be televised for our viewing pleasure?

[Asher]

My BF invited me to his prom, and I'm flying back in June just to go to it. We don't care what people say, since the schoolboard can do f*ck all about it (being a public school).

[Capt Dizle]

Be nice to get an explanation if I get the axe, would it be for daring to ruffle the feathers of the gay lobby or responding to the uncalled for barbs of the WORLDEST LOUDEST MOUTH, who happens to have a little more point and click power than any sane person would allow?

Like it matters.

[Japher]

I like Capt. Dizle, don't ban him

He's got the Savage in him. The only think I would like to hear from him is how gay rights imposes on his owns.

Dizle, care to explain how gay rights/liberties plays on yours? Or, to be specific, why granting the gays the right to marry will infringe on your rights as a straight god-farring man?

[Capt Dizle]

I think I ought to have a right to read an occasional thread without having sexuality issues all over it. That is an imposition on me. I am sorry to disappoint you if you think that I am a gay basher. I could care less. I would like to have marriage between straights and gays separate but ITS NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO ME TO HAVE LISTEN TO THIS CRAP ANYMORE.

[Asher]

So WHY DO YOU KEEP READING THREADS THAT ARE CLEARLY ABOUT GAY PEOPLE, AS PER THE TITLE!

Christ.

How was it an imposition on you when you VOLUNTARILY clicked on this thread? It says "gay" in the title, after all.

So you come into a thread armed with an agenda and a chip on your shoulder, and expect us to take you seriously when you say you don't want to hear about it any more?

I would too, but telling 'em off ain't going to convince anyone.

I don't expect anyone to take me seriously. Nor should you either Boris. Heck, though, we ought to have a limit on gay threads on the front page. Three would be about enough don't you think? I mean, at a certain point is clearly spam. And I don't see why I should be able to come in the thread and say so. It's a Poly tradition.

the title says it all, capt: "gay people"... so... if you clicked on it... you must have known that it was going to be about gays... so...

I agree. Yet, have you noticed that threads on gay topics gets lots of replies? Most of which are not fending of trolls, flamers, and threadjackers. You said your peace, and then MrFun (and the lot of them) trolled back. I have only this to say; If it's a thread on gay rights try not to troll, if it's a thread against gay rights have fun. It is not that we disrespect your opinion, or care not to know where you are coming from, but your out right gay bashing is something that would be more condusive to Park Ave., Cali, or even some of my threads.

If you (Cptn) want to start a thread about gay rights and how ludicrous it is add to the first thread count (which you so miticulously follow), make sure that it has some valid arguable points (so it doesn't get locked; our mods or sticklers), and have a run with it. Unfortunately (kidding) many of our regs our gay, and don't want to be BOTHERED with homobashing, which is what you were doing.

Keep it decent, factual, and sincere, and you will be heard instead of trolled back. We have plenty of homophobes, racists, and sexists here, we just wish to keep it civil.
