I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to post natty's pictures here.

What happens in the PL, stays in the PL.

He just posted on the Community College group, and I believe the decision to unban him has been reached, but he's still a Guest.

One of the odd things about coming back is that I could read my PMs and apparently I had a chat ban for using the word "gay" in chat. It's apparently a major violation.

We do not acknowledge homosexuality in chat. If we don't mention it, it will go away, right?

To be fair, I asked the mod who banned me for a bit of clarification. He hasn't replied yet, but it is a bit strange that "Gay" is a major violation.

"Gay" is better than some other terms. I guess it depends on context, but just saying the word "Gay" shouldn't constitute a ban.

Anyway, welcome back, Symmetry!

I'll have to see what Trini says in reply. I don't really understand the ban at the moment, or the reasoning behind it.

Mmm.. So I was going to post this picture in some way to Symmetry:

But stopped for a moment and thought.. could Symmetry make a fuss out of this, start one of his long passive aggressive drama exchanges with me? I know I could fall for it.


So muy_thaiguy, I think you're right, he acts like some sort of deterrent of my bad taste penis jokes. Any art needs balance. Even if the balance is provided by Symmetry, it's better than no balance at all.

Can you be neutral and the description of the events this time?

Because trini is very lenient in chat. I really doubt he gave you a long ban for saying Gay, must have had some context. And usually trini applies the ban after he's got a report from some of the other mods or there was some complaint accompanied with a screenshot.

If it was something like a 3-day ban and you're contesting it even though it's been over for 6 months, I guess you're in for the drama exchange? Good luck to trini.

It was a 24 hour ban, and yes it was for using the word "gay". I don't have the details- Trini hasn't provided the context except that he banned me for using in a conversation with another person in chat with regards to someone else.

I've asked for more details, but I don't know the names of any of the other accounts involved. I know that the person I was talking to got banned too, but I don't know who it was.

That was probably me. It was at the same time that we got banned. We were discussing some of the sensitivity related to that word I think. In your side was shuston in her third coming if i recall correctly. But she couldn't say much because she was trying to look like new. THen I think I made a joke towards Bruceswar, to get him talking, and I think I know who made the report. It's another mod and hasn't been in chat ever since. That's just speculation on my part.

So let it go, we both got a 1-day ban.

I thought it might have been you- I don't recall anyone else that I was chatting to around that time. The ban itself doesn't particularly bother me. That "gay" is a taboo word that results in a ban is more concerning.

This was around July-8 right?

I don't have the pm of the ban anymore the inbox is ridiculously small, but I have a conversation with Bruceswar on fb asking if he had been offended by my comment, I really doubted it but I was doing research. My next option was you, for the report, but you told me back then you had been banned too, and I concluded it was this mod, who was friends with Bruce, and probably didn't know I joked with him. So I asked if it had been her, and she didn't answer and never came back to chat. I asked her nicely, didn't have any reason to be mad at her. I used to hump her.

Yes- the ban was from July. I don't recall talking to about it though- I picked up the PM informing me about the ban when my inbox was unlocked a few days ago.

Perhaps my joking about it got you banned too.

Just drop it.

trini didn't know you enough to judge that you weren't meaning anything bad, and he knew me enough to know i often cross the line.

So 1-day ban is harmless. Don't make more drama out of it.

If I recall correctly he told me it had been reported to him with a screenshot. The screenshot or text log could've been cropped so it didn't make it obvious it was all a joke. He wouldn't say who had made the report but as I told you I suspect it was another mod who thought I was being offensive towards Bruceswar.

Trini just sent me a PM saying that I should make a suggestion thread about the subject.

We should suggest that everyone be Gay and shut the f*ck up! (Like Gay could ever shut the f*ck up! But if it was possible...)
