    ok so on another websites forums in the off topic section some fool posted a thread entitled

    "do gay people get turned on by themselves???"

    he didnt really elaborate on why he was asking but after a few sarcastic replies i replied with

    "i do get turned on by myself but I am straight sorry"

    the next day i tried to log on and was greeted with the message

    "you have been suspended"

    "length;3days"

    "reason; "abusive/harassing/insulting behaviour relating to sexual orientation"

    An overreaction IMO. I would have just banned you for not being funny.

    It does sound like an overreaction, assuming that's the full story. I wouldn't be able to judge until I saw the thread in question. Linky? :)

    the thread was deleted aswell as far as i can find..........maybe they have a policy of banning anyone who participates in an inappropriate thread but even that is ott

    anyway thanks for the replies i jsut wanted to make sure i was not wildly missing something about what i said

    Why the hell is this thread still open!?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,745 ✭✭✭swiss


    I think the real question is why are people still posting in it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,978 ✭✭✭✭Stark


    My sentiments exactly. There was no need to lock it. It was dying of natural causes before you dragged it up again, azezil.

    What are you trying to say here stark?

  • Registered Users Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭azezil

    Nope! Your question was answered (sounds like an over-reaction on their part to me too) so I'm a gonna shut down this thread as it's clearly served its purpose.
