Who would you nominate for Moderator?

Because it's insulting to make "gay" a synonym for "displeasing" or "gross"

Sorry I guess as a straight girl you don't really know what I'm talking about

This is an example of why you'd make a bad mod, right here. o.O

I don't think you can excuse, or try to excuse someone simply on the basis that he or she is your "bestie": everyone's best mate makes the odd slip or gaff now and then --- I've made some beauties --- and you can't just say, "Oh it's [insert username here] --- he/she/it is my friend" and expect that qualifies or excuses what they've said.

As it goes, the comment wasn't particularly offensive, well not to me, I just wondered why it was made, as I said. But if you think someone can just do something (wrong-ish) because you happen to know or like them, then you're guilty of playing favourites. I think Big3 and WWWP were having a fine exchange and enjoying themselves, and didn't need anyone inserting themselves into the conversation with a silly and pointless comment like that.

Pedestrian, I'd like to add my

for your succinct and very insightful post on why not only mods can change the forum. You're an inspiration to us all, and a credit to our organisation, as Burns would (maybe) have said.

I don't care what he meant, is he unaware of the synonyms? I imagine that he is, yet chooses to ignore the discrimination, oppression, violence that micro aggressions like that feed. So I think it's funny you're gonna ignore that because you want to fuck him, lol.

Yep. I already said that I wouldn't be fit for it. You saying that I would be a bad mod because you choose to be ignorant about the word "gay" isn't going to make any difference.

You're choosing to be ignorant about everyday terms not meant to offend anyone...

hear this now: Your input is not needed on a matter that doesn't affect you, this is me, an actual real life gay telling you to stop

reread this several times

apply it to your life, liberally.
