    It's actually comical. How libtard do you have to be spout that ****e.

    This took place in current affairs/IMHO. I was agreeing with the post I quoted.

    How is the worth an infraction when other poster are constantly attacking posters they dont agree with.

    Dear Tasfasdf,

    You have been infracted for being uncivil.

    Typically, this means that you are posting in a needlessly aggressive or confrontational manner being disruptive on the forum or causing stress for the other members. We don't want that here.

    For more information please refer to the Boards.ie FAQ.

    If you wish to appeal this infraction you can see details on how to do so here.

    I can only deal with the infraction in your OP.
    I can't go any further until you engage with the Mod to resolve this infraction.

    You need to give it more time.
    We are volunteers here.

    Wait for the Mods response and engage for a friendly resolution.

    Post back here if it ends up resolved via PM so we can mark this as finished.

    It may be your honest opinion, but there are still rules around civility and not being a d*ck. You still haven’t addresses my concern about why you think using a variant on “retard” is acceptable?
    Libtard:
    Noun
    an individual, whose thinking process has been
    rendered impaired by political correctness and the
    failure to understand that people are responsible
    for their actions and the world does not owe lazy
    or stupid people a living.

    https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=libtard

    Please explain your problem with the world above? This is the googled meaning.



    It is a variant in the word “retard” and was used in a deliberately derogatory fashion.

    As you appear unable or willing to understand why this word is insulting, I am ending this discussion. You can inform the CMod in DRP that they can continue with the review.

    This is the PM.

    Apologies, very long day in work today.

    This is a slam dunk action.

    You personally insulted another member.
    You can't insult other members here and that's a site wide rule.

    My advice, learn and move on.

    Upheld.

    The quote was a quote of what a person had said earlier in the thread.
    So yes, you are right you attacked the quote, however, you still insulted a poster as it was their opinion.

    You have a choice, accept and move on or I request an Admin to review.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 660 ✭✭✭Tasfasdf


    I will take an admin review.

    I'll review this.

    Current Affairs/IMHO doesn't have many rules, the one main requirement is "don't be a dick". Referring to another poster as a "Libtard" definitely falls under the umbrella of "being a dick."

    Infraction upheld.
