Banning
Banning
Recently we had some serious issues with inappropriate language and conflicts of personal views. Regardless of what your views are toward people and their persuasions, I don't want to see the kind of inflammatory hating that I've seen recently.
We've tried very hard to keep modified from being over moderated. I'm sure everyone wants to keep it that way too. Keep in mind that we are all on here because of our common love of footbag and the footbag community. We are trying to attract people to the sport, not alienate them. I've already received several e-mails from people who won't be coming back to the forum because of recent events. That made me very sad and seriously angry.
People have to have there own views and be free to express them, but the Hate has got to stop. If you can't express yourself without calling people "faggots" and "butt fuckers" then just don't express yourself here.
I don't want to ban people, but I will. Damon received a temporary ban for his actions in the philosophy thread and it's been lifted. In the future the bans will be more severe for everyone who uses the kind of hateful language he did.
Don't hate. If it's just in your nurture to do so, then do it elsewhere.

I suppose he's right, vegetation doesn't deserve no vulgary speech,
turn it into George W. Bush Junior.
that should be clear

There is a difference between an opinion,
say "fuck bush",
and an indirect attack , such as,
"Bush supporters are rabid bible thumping idiologs who enjoy tying people up and placing electrodes on their gonads while watching them perform homosexual acts they claim to despise, all the while jacking off to the video in private"
which is still less severe than the direct attacks some parties were making.

Alright, enough already. I've changed my signature. It was pretty funny for a while, albeit innappropriate. I put it up several months ago when that bumper sticker caused a huge scene around here between a woman and a cop who thought it was okay to revoke her first amendment rights.
All gone now.
All gone now.

though your PMs haven't really been the ones I am used to, I'm not of that unforgiving kind...
well, don't want to break that single-line rule, but :
agreed.
