I HAS QUESHUN BOUT BIGOTRY
Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 12:19 pmSince it is okay to call Americans cunts, is it also okay to call arabs cunts? How about jews? Can I start a thread calling them cunts? Or was OP banned for that shit?

Re: I HAS QUESHUN BOUT BIGOTRY
Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 12:24 pmIs it too hard to maybe read the rules for what is meant by bigotry on this website? Since you clearly cannot do it yourself, I'll just leave this here for you:
I don't see anywhere on there that qualifies bigotry as bashing countries. If that was the case, everyone in off-topics would probably be permanently banned.
The Community Guidelines wrote:Bigotry includes racism, sexism, ageism, homophobia/sexual orientation bashing, religion bashing, lack of religion bashing, or wishing violence on any group of people, etc.
Bigotry takes into account historic events, emotional baggage and generally accepted associations with a term, phrase or intent - posting "White Power" in a topic has a history and is bigoted, posting "Green Power" makes you an environmentalist.
Bigotry will get your post edited/deleted and you will receive a disciplinary action from a mod. Bigotry, just avoid it. Just do it.

Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 12:26 pmI'm no mod, but I do know the rules specifically say that context and intent is considered when determining bigotry. So since the thread you're up in arms about was clearly a jocular criticism of the over abundance of threads posted by people bloviating about ultra-conservative stupid bullshit and not an actual statement promoting hatred of a particular group or encouraging violence against them, any reasonable person would not see it as bigotry.

Thanks, pimpy. I'm looking for a mod response. Can I call jews cunts or not? Will I be in trouble if I call Pimpy a jewish cunt? How about in game chat instead of the forum? I'm just looking for a definitive answer here.

Re: I HAS QUESHUN BOUT BIGOTRY
Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 12:54 pmas long as you arent saying hes a cunt BECAUSE he's a jew, you should be ok... be careful about the context of the convo tho.

Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 12:59 pmI've been inside a few Jewish cunts in my day. They were just like any other cunt though. Does that make me part Jew?

I would make a joke right now, but I'm not sure if I'll be punished

Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 2:27 pmNo, you can hit a straight guy for being gay, but you can't hit a gay guy for being gay.
Not saying Arabs are cunts, I'm saying Americans can take being called cunts, Arabs will not.

Re: I HAS QUESHUN BOUT BIGOTRY
Posted: Mon May 07, 2012 4:33 pmI think you've received some semblance of an answer from the group here. There is some element of intent for most bigotry (as far as I'm concerned). Certain words are definitely out of bounds. Cunt is not one of them.
So, to answer your unasked question, yes, I will attempt to ban you if you start a thread calling a particular group a bunch of cunts. And no, it would not be the same as Pedronicus's thread.

CONTRADICTION
DISCIPLINARY ACTION CAN AND WILL BE TAKEN IF YOU DO OR DO NOT BASH RELIGION.
What's that one saying? "Damned if you do, damned if you don't."
Also:
Spam is posting for the sole intention of being annoying.
There are a million ways you shouldn't be annoying, but ones worth mentioning:
HIDE: SPAMMING SPECIFICS
Double/triple/multiple posting.
Quoting just for the sake of quoting.
"QFE", "QFT" etc. do not qualify as "a meaningful post", add why you agree with the quote.
Posting only, or lots of, smilies.
Posting about yourself in a forum topic that is not specifically about you.
Posts that add nothing to the current topic.
Posting rapidly in a short time.
Posting the same thing over and over in the same or other forum topics.
Posting "parody" forum topics that aren't meant for an actual discussion.
Necrobumping (bringing dead forum topics back to life) if no new meaningful content is being added.
QFT.
Nah. JK.
Parody forum topics are extremely frequent here in the OT forum... and Necrobumping is somewhat common too.
Actually, there are a lot of offenses that occur here in the OT forum. I suppose the mods just let it go since it's the OT forum.

Keep bein' cool, mods.

Like 7-11, but instead of having immigrants stand outside and box each other while they're waiting for day labor jobs, it's filled with white people.

Re: I HAS QUESHUN BOUT BIGOTRY
Posted: Tue May 08, 2012 6:03 ami think that arabs and jews are an ethnie and religion; american is a nationality and attacking your religious group, your ethnicity or sexual orientation can be much more offensive that what your passport says.
or don't you think that insulting your dna, your beliefs and what you like to f*ck is highly offensive compared to a group of people you are being related to and you have nothing to do with other than sharing nationality? or do you think your identity is that much determined by your nationality? (which by the way is something you can choose to change)

No. See below. I can tell you that "cunt" is certainly not one of those words.
