In my opinion, he's probably gay himself, or at least very insecure about his own sexuality, it's truly pathetic how he carries on.

Just wondering what anyone else thinks?

btw, CM thinks he's so clever by calling me BlackAle when I'm now using the nick Hoegaarden, like he's exposed me, lol.

Hoegaarden = BlackAle = frazzle

While I think it's nice to see someone honest about being gay, no one really cares if you'd rather sleep with men/women.

As for CM, he's a 12 (?) year old from Alabama, what do you want?

Oh, and on a semi-similar note, I find it absolutely hilarious that using "fag" as an insult is allowed in this forum and in swz. It's biggotry, no different from someone saying "n*gger", yet one is acceptable and one isn't.

Daz, I could list off a million instances such as that. You pretty much can't say anything that may reflect negatively upon gender, sexual preference, or ethnicity if you're in the "majority." It just doesn't pay to be a straight white male between the ages of 18 and 64. =)

No, it's true with Americans too, at least, Sub. Two words can mean the EXACT same thing but for some reason we say one is bad and the other is ok. It doesn't make much sense to me how these taboos just seem to be randomly applied.

Daz, I just want CM's abusive comments to stop, I couldn't care less about him or his age, I don't see the relevance of your last comment.

But I do agree with daz on the matter of some words being considered offensive and others not. I think there may be a culture gap here between Europeans, Americans, Aussies, and others. It may be more specific that than, too. In any case, it's wrong to allow some discriminatory words and not others. This seems like something worth confronting the staff over.

I meant it's hard to get a 12 year old to understand the impact of his words.

I was talking about the bigger picture here, just like what craw said. I don't think the words "faggot" & "homosexual" etc etc should be allowed in the zone and on the board. The only problem with that is that I'm positive the staff has no problem telling noobs to watch their language, but if someone like mase says "you homo" none of the staff cares at all. He can say anything he wants, and the staff will just say "he's just kidding, learn how to take a joke".

If I call NV a girl it's for fun, if I call NV a homosexual, it's for fun, same thing. He doesn't take "girl" as offence and he doesn't take "gay" as offence, neither should any girls or gays.... (well none intended, but I can imagine 'em taking offence being compaired to NV j/k)

Sadly there are still (even in 2002) people who believe that if someone isn't 100% the same as they themselves, that someone is a bad person. (hmm sounds like a childish way of saying it, but it's the lack of english, sry )

So once again, a lesson for (mostly) Americans: live and let live, I'm not too fond of whatching two men making out on the streets either:P, but if it is what makes them happy, by all means treat them as what they are: Normal People.

I was responding to a comment about words having different meanings, with a slightly tongue in cheek anwser ...obviously the above comment went completely over your head.

A fag is a cigarette.

CM's comment's go far beyond that, i'm sick, perverted, have no right to be alive, better off dead, scum of the earth, etc... according to him, he also goes on at length about what he thiks my sex life consists of, littered with more abuse.

Comments made in jest I have no problem with, pure hate messages I do have a problem with.

Daz: The comment, Levitrons that is, was simply stated. Why should it be outlawed? Why does someone over a game, over a forum, bother you so much to the point where you must say and suggest reasons like they should be banned from the board?

Complaining about harassment over a video game is sad.

Try reading my posts, faq, queer whatever doesn't bother me.

Nope, I didn't choose my 'lifestyle' as you call it, did you choose your sexuality? your eye colour?

There's a big difference between negative comments and pure and simple hate messages. I don't see why anyone should have to put up with that kind of behaviour on SWZ or anywhere, whether their gay, black, martian, whatever.

Blackale's right if CM said something to the effect of "you are gay, therefore you don't deserve to live." That's not acceptable in real life. However, CoM has a point as well. I take enough shit for any five people in SS. Some I bring on myself, some is just random idiocy from the little punks that think insulting people makes them cool. I never bitch about it and I never take it to heart, though. Maybe I have thicker skin than others, but it's definitely (unfortunately) something you'll just have to get used to. Humans have the tendencay to find perceived flaws in others and try to exploit them to make themselves appear to be better people. It's just a fact of life.

Oh, and WTF does being american have to do with any of this. There are people of every race, creed, color, sexual preference here and we accept that, thus we're called the melting pot. I'm sick of you ignoramuses talking down to americans and making anti-american comments. It's the same exact thing as what blackale is talking about, only you're using geographical location to classify and dismiss people rather than sexual preference. You say live and let live, then quit fucking judging people!

This, simply, is why you need to stop complaining.

you say my morals are "twisted" but that is your opinion, but in my opinion, your morals are.

we disagree and arguements like this will go on through the rest of humanity.

i am stubborn, i guess you could say, and i believe it is a choice, whether you think so or not, and if it is a "disease" i think it is "curable"
thats what sexual reoriantations programs are for.

daz: if you want to get rid of words like "gay" in swz, because they are offensive, why dont we remove all cuss words, etc. to me, they are offensive, especially using God's name in vain (GD, etc) calling blackale names offends him, so shouldnt offensive words alltogether be removed?

posted 06-07-2002 10:34 AM            

"sexual reoriantations programs"?? I mean you can't CHANGE feelings, I like women wether or not I agree with that or not IT IS NOT OF MY CHOOSING. Did you choose to like and romantically love women? No CM, you probably don't even know yet what love is. Love trandscends (sp?) gender.

Or do you actually believe that at the age of 15, about 10% of the entire world population "CHOOSES" to start being homosexual? Ah I bet you even think someone CHOOSES to be a male or a female. Or someone CHOOSES his skincolor, eyecolor, dicksize(:P) etc. I don't know where you get your information from, but you need some good biology, psychology and LIFE lessons. It's not even an arguement or an opinion as you state, it's a plain biological fact. It's in the brains of people, they cannot control it, they often don't even mind it, it is who they are.
