ChiefsPlanet Racial Slurs - Page 25

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 11-17-2012, 06:58 AM

We're having some posts being reported for the use of racial slurs in this forum. While it is widely known that there is some racism that goes on in this forum, those users have found a way to dance around the issue enough that the majority of moderators of this website have deemed the behavior fine for now.

It's really not okay to me at all. I don't believe that people of color should be subjected to that shit over political affiliations. That said, I'm a firm believer in a majority consensus so it is what it is at this point.

That said, overtly racial slurs will result in bannings. It is a bullet point in the TOS of this website, and not much is out of bounds. One user has already been banned, and another one has been warned. If you insist on trying to dance around racist comments, please be prepared for a vacation if you use a term that is deemed racist by the moderators. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Here's the thing: If you want me to respect you as a man, that's cool. It's my default position and you'd have to work your way into a state of disrespect.

However, if you want me to respect you as a white man, or a black woman, or a Latino child or any other ****ing thing, you can go pound sand, cracker (or whatever). By demanding my respect for such foolishness, you just lost my respect. And you know what? I don't care how that makes you feel or not feel. You don't ****ing matter to me.

I was thinking more about the time frame as to after civil rights legislation was signed and affirmative action enforced. After all that things did change. Sure bad things did happen still, but law suits enforcing those acts have made businesses very conscious to the policies. As to specifically 1970, it was more an arbitrary number.

See my patteeu post. I was talking about the country wide oppression of the negro. Obviously, not all felt that way or the civil rights act, etc. wouldn't have been signed.

It wasn't a pedo joke. It was an Uncle Kracker-Chesney joke.

I always use my best judgment. But when a moderator judgment was issued a while back, there wasn't much guidance offered and my reasonable questions went unanswered, so there isn't a lot to go on.

What do jokes have to do with feuds? Are you willing to explain the pedophilia rule?

Ok. I was flashing back to the time someone complained when I told them to stay away from my kids.

Jesus, do you have to bitch about everything?

I thought this was funny considering the topic. Took this tonight on the way home from work.

Keep carrying the water for the board's racists patt. One day, just maybe, someone other than dildo will agree with you.

This thread is ridiculous. The entire idea that people need guidance on how to act boggles my mind. Is there an epidemic of people being called "cracker" around here that I'm not aware of? With the massive black involvement in this forum, I'm sure there is and I just missed it.

There's a select group of people here, and everyone knows who they are, that are consistently racist. It doesn't bother me much, because I see their names and just skip the post. That doesn't make it acceptable.

Here's the pedophile rule in a nutshell. If you're hanging out with your friends and they're okay with being called pedophile or child molester down at the bar, then have at it. If you're not friendly with somebody on here and in the course of your disagreement you decide that calling them a pedophile strengthens your position then you will probably be banned for a while if that post is reported. This little site we have here isn't all that difficult. Most reasonable people are able to survive without even looking at the rules. It's just common sense. If you can't say it standing on top of a table in a crowded bar without fear for your safety then don't say it here.
