Are you referring to the "HardGay guy" or other stuff?

In reference to the OP specifically, I interpreted that to be Rightclaw saying he has no control over whether people on here are offended by the use of these terms or not, but that since the forum policy is to not allow it he can control changing or removing the word(s) if it is posted.

Beyond the specifics of the opening post: While you may be quoting a song, when I first read the thread I did not understand you to be quoting lyrics.

I also did not see the thread before Rightclaw had you edit it, but I am glad it was edited, because regardless of whether you are quoting a song or saying it yourself there are many people offended by the use of it, me included. Not only that word but other derogatory terms used to reference people based on ethnic, sexual or religious backgrounds and preferences.

And I personally don't think these type terms should be used even by the people who feel authorized to use them because it has a reference to their own ethnic, sexual or religious background.

Just my opinion.

My first thoughts about this were:

"This is what you get for having liberal userbase of people with conservative leaders."

Then I went to work and thought about it...

I changed my mind after thinking about your point resol...

"It's just a song."

Well songs are a form of art, and I know people hate when other people censor their art.

But some people consider taking nude photos of people an art.

What do you think would happen if you were to start posting them, and calling them art?

There's always a section where your lyrics will be appreciated, but here isn't the right place.

I personally... don't care if it's a song you're quoting.
I like to hear people speak their minds, and if it includes swearing, vulgar language, etc... I couldn't care less.

I'm thinking with the other side of the argument though which is where I came up with my conclusion =/

There's probably a fine line between what is allowed and what isn't. As for myself, I dislike vulgar languages of any form and I believe it is degrading to have that sort of language on the forums where it is for a family-oriented game. Even if it was in MoS (I think?), it is still part of the FiestaFan community.

If you were warned for a certain action I'd deem it wise to keep that warning in mind. If you ignore that warning and receive some sort of punishment, the only person you should be mad at would be yourself and not those who had already warned you about it.

As for resol's question, if you believed it to be a concern why voice it now? I do not believe in any way that any members were 'making fun' of another person's sexual preference. But as I said, there's a fine line.

That's just my thoughts.

I agree with what you said. Nude photos could be a form of "art" but some people can bend the truth a bit and call porns "art"... Where do we draw the line? Where are the admins/mods suppose to draw the line?

Some arts are 18+ (21+?) They should not be allowed here for a forum that's suppose to be PG.

But to be honest.. can u really call a song full of swearing and racist slur "art"?

Anyway. I think what each of us individually think is appropriate or not cannot represent how the general public thinks.

I'm sure our Mods and Admins are looking out for the general public. We cannot rule out the possibility that we've got some young audiences, and the parents see that the content of this forum seems reasonably and allow their kids to view this forum here.

Not all forum may consider "sensitive" materials as something that we need to be cautious of, but THIS forum does, and that's the rule. If you want to stay here, then we gotta follow their suit.
