[Spider_dude]

cos skizo dressed it, otherwise it would cost $75 (£1.75)

What happened to Skizo in the early 90's? Did he take up playing the banjo or something?

[Proper Bo]

i thought the bindi was meant to be a laser sight type thing:blink:

[maebach]

A bindi is what hindu women wear to represent the third eye. The third eye is one that our god Shiv has, its suppose to potect the women and families because it's located on the forehead where we believe most spiritual energy is lost.

It's hard for me to explain but maybe that might work.

[Proper Bo]

I know what a bindi is, you glebe:dabs:

[maebach]

o.

[Barbarossa]

I'm offended by the euphemism "harvest" in relation to slaughtering deer.

[Spider_dude]

ah the bindi is the laser (lazer) sight from the gun, duh. now if that was a rod here is a fist.

I was thinking that the board should establish a system to protect the tender psyche's of our beloved community. A group of individuals called "moderators" could be selected that would, in conjunction with the board administrators, create a list of forum rules.

The Moderators would then be given the power to enforce these rules at their discretion.

If forum members found something offensive, they then could report this to moderators who would then take action. This would eliminate vigilante justice and outright hissy fits and establish a protocol for "crisis" situations.

In addition Vidcc should create an interactive online sensitivity training module which would be mandatory. It would consist of real-life scenarios, various pictures, and descriptions of bodily functions. One would have to correctly identify something as offensive (aka a no-no) or not. A "care-bear" score of greater than 98 would be necessary to activate your account.

It's just a thought. I've got to go out now and turn some magazines around.

No need mate, if you find something offensive just ignore it.

That way anyone can post anything they want.

Just the ticket, I don't know why I didn't think of it myself. Thankfully you were there to show us the way.

I can't imagine being offended by the word title one shot, one kill, which was accompanied by a warning.

I assume I am going to see something dead, so it is a no-clickey. I don't barge right in looking to take offense. Did you really want to see a dead deer? I ignored the thread, not my cup of tea.

If you do enter, wanting to see his dead deer, and you get shocked at what he posted, send him a PM or more properly report it.

We can't have the whole forum go into a 4 alarm panty bunch, everytime some has their "offense" button tripped.

I mean if the magazine store says XXX hot chicks, I don't enter. But certainly a lot of people might take the opposite approach.

There was nothing offensive, racist or descriminatory in the thread title. People ventured forth at their own risk. The result was that many were surprised but most were not offended.

So it's OK to post what you want as long as you warn people, then they can choose not to view it.

Excellent, I love this brave new World you propose.

As long as they are within the stated forum rules, obviousmente.

You want to post here, stay within the rules.


4. There will be no offensive or inflammatory posts meant to offend or hurt any other member(s) or guest(s) of this forum.

How we define "offensive" is really rather a personal thing.

The key is "meant to offend or hurt". It defines an intent by the poster.

I think the warning given by Skizo says just the opposite.

"Some of you might think this is gross, just letting you know".

This of course is completely different than saying- One shot, one kill-stupid Jew-graphic picture.

I think Skizo realized that some might not want to see a dead deer, so he gave a warning.

No need for such fireworks because he misjudged your personal sensitivity button. Overall the forum was not so "offended". All posts, like all magazine covers will offend a certain percentage.

Maybe the rules should state that no one should excede your threshold of offense. In addition, there are some topics, like abortion, that people may find offensive and want removed from the board. We, in a board devoted to discussion, sometimes we have to be tolerant and accept that things discussed may not meet your approval, but you certainly wouldn't want your thread cut off because someone decided that "soccer" was offensive.

We don't need people thrashing around and disrupting discussion they don't like. It is a shared forum and somethings we just have to tolerate. Unless you own your own forum and make up rules as you go. Can't think of any offhand.

[JPaul]

Yeah, you base your decisions on FST rules. I shall henceforth do likewise.

No wait, I won't. I shall say what I want and object when I think someone is out of order. Yes, that seems like a better idea.

Good god, hobbes. I'd have about three posts if I took rule four at its apparent meaning.

Those two sentence above could, conceivably, cause you offence because I'm being sarcastic.


We don't have active mods who enforce even a faint semblance of the general forum rules. At least not in the lounge.

Things seem to be going okay with the current self regulation - a group of people talking about whatever they want. We haven't had a hissy fit since Yogi left.

Which is actually a bad thing because it was teh funny.

Yes, but I think it was honestly hurtful to Yogi, the real Yogi, not the forum Yogi and that is not funny.

This is a place to get away from real problems not to inflict real pain, which you guys did.

He came back, how feckin' hurt do you think he was. He was the one who said he had new, better chums when he "left forever".

Oh, maybe this forum is so vital to him that he is willing to put up with people thinking he is a sad, puerile wastrel.

If so, that's his choice, not yours.

This is a place to get away from real problems not to inflict real pain, which you guys did.Quite possibly, I have caused other members to feel upset too. In fact, I think it likely.

Some people choose to post about their personal situations and invite comments, others do not. If you're the type of person in the former group and one of the opinions hurts you, then perhaps put it down to it being part of growing up and not bother again.

None of my comments are made with the intention to hurt someone's feelings - that doesn't give me any pleasure - but trying to temper any comments I make to be absolutely sure that it doesn't happen is impossible.

I will, however, continue to use a modicum of discretion.

I, on the other hand, aim to wound.

It's a larf.

I, however, make no apologies. Sorry.

Certain folk on here are going are going to be trolls, hobbes. They will target certain folk no matter what. That's internet forum life, I guess.

Tbh, I think at this point of the forum, one shouldn't be surprised at a harmless post be trolled upon. People let off the steam here and are smartassed 'cause they are able to from the comfort of their computers and nothing else in their sad lives. Many of their lives are drab and boring and they have nothing to look forward to.

It basically comes down to "Why do you fuck with him?":unsure:

Ignore trolls or respond but don't expect change or humility.

The main motive for a user trolling is to disrupt the community in some way. Inflammatory, sarcastic, disruptive or humorous content is posted, meant to draw other users into engaging the troll in a fruitless confrontation. The greater the reaction from the community the more likely the user is to troll again, as the person develops beliefs that certain actions achieve his/her goal to cause chaos. This gives rise to the often repeated protocol in Internet culture: "Do not feed the trolls".

Often, a person will post a sincere message about which he is emotionally sensitive. Skillful trolls know that an easy way to upset him is to disingenuously claim that he is a "troll". On other occasions, a person may not instantly understand, or fit into the social norms of a forum where most users have similar characteristics. As a result, his acting just slightly out of the norm (often unintentionally, and for legitimate reasons) garners him the label "troll". It can sometimes be difficult to distinguish between a user who is merely unfamiliar with the social protocols of a forum, and a user who is intentionally trolling; unfortunately, many users react aggressively on a first impression to a perceived troll, which sometimes leads disgruntled newbies to become legitimate trolls.

He acts and gets treated in exactly the same way on quite a few forums. I've witnessed this on here, Soulseek's forums, KL-Tool's forums, Slyck's forums and R&C's (they still going?). Never worked out if he was a victim, a troll, an elaborate rod of epic proportions or just a mental. Or, perhaps, a heady mixture of them all.
