F1areaGaman 02/22/18 12:23:33 AM #1:	Mods are calling certain ideas and discussions "offensive", and more and more it seems not to fit their own curriculum for what "offensive" is... Offensive, according to gamefaqs.... "(includes) but is not limited to, using vulgar, profane, or sexually explicit language in reference to race, religion, sexual orientation, culture, ethnicity, disability, nationality, or gender as a means of insult; violent material; using threatening, harassing, defamatory, hate-speech, or libelous language; and posting, requesting, linking to, or otherwise sharing material considered pornographic, obscene, graphic, or hate speech. Failing to abide by a warning that material or terms are offensive or prohibited is a violation." I understand the "(is not limited to)" but being offensive is clearly just being a jerk to someone or some kind of idea. Bringing up a controversial topic, like abortion or gay marriage or conspiracies is NOT offensive EVEN IF it may hurt someones feelings. For example; "I don't believe in gay marriage" (I do just fyi) is not offensive. Calling an openly gay poster something mean or post a pic of a cross dresser simply to make fun of them IS offensive. "I think JFK was murdered by the Russians" Is NOT offensive. But now, topics questioning the validity of sources and stories from the recent tragedies or posting things about 911 can get you WARNED. And posteing videos of data that seems unrealistic or out of place(to you) gets the topics DELETED UNLESS you don't question it's validity. Why is that? Like, is it a time thing? In ten years its ok to say, hey did we ever get that autopsy back?? Everyone takes everything on the news and TV with a grain of salt until there's a moral high ground to stand on by going along with it... I think most conspiracies are dumb, and honestly a lot of discussion about them useless. However, questioning the news IS NOT dumb. --- 3DS FC: 4656-7003-5457 <cite>F1areaGaman posted [p:896538813] in Gamefaqs h...
