Transparent Moderation Log & Site Topics - Part II - Page 646

that is exactly what i am trying to do. limit my posting. but the thumbs make it easier for me. like a nicotine patch for posting.

Thank you for only timing out Arthur PE and not banning him. Shit this funny is hard to come by.

- who deleted my post about not calling a jew a picture nazi

- nice new image posting interface

- all i see on front page is men in capes, which is rather cool, but impractical considering it's july , 90s and humid if not worse every day.....

i would not have known that had you not mentioned it. thanks, it is very nifty indeed.

i have noticed now, that the new messages in my PM box are not in bold, they look the same as the read messages. anyone else have that?

That's because someone else is reading your PMs...

Yeah, I was having problems with it this morning. I reported it in technical but I don't think anyone is even reading those threads any longer.

i considered going there, but also, based on the number of posts listed in the subforum i figured here was the right place.

mods, where would such an issue be best to report?

edit - looks like it has been fixed. thanks.

I did. A Jew (not stitches) reported the actual term you used as racist. I didn't recognize the term, and so deferred the the reporter's knowledge. Sorry I forgot to pm you about it. I usually do when deleting posts. Had 90 posts to go through last night around midnight.
Not sure if you're serious, but I doubt that. I'm having the same issue. It only seems to happen if I've already looked at and replied to the original pm.

But, guys, I don't think this is an issue that needs to be discussed here. It's about admin, not moderation. I think it's best to LA Guy or J if no one's answering the tech thread.

that's retarded

if you want, ask a persian jew -- haganah who is/was around these parts can tell you, they prefer the term "yahoodi" to the term "jood" because the latter carries negative connotations and has historically been used in a derogatory manner. given that i was speaking to a persian, i used the word in persian that is preferred by persian jews. whoever told you this is silly

What exactly is retarded? A little precision would be helpful here.

Interesting. Start a thread on it if you don't mind. I'd love to hear a discussion on the topic.

what's retarded is the person reporting something for what it's not ...

here's the discussion with haganah i had over PM :

hmmm, shah, PM me the text of the post if you dont mind. i think these things are often very subjective. some jewish people do not mind certain names, others take great offense. depending on the age, parents preference, demographic, schooling.....

i have never heard the word kalimi btw. also "juden" most often connotes the phrase "juden raus" meaning "jews out" a phrase the nazis used when searching for and gather jewish people in the holocaust. i imagine most jewish people would take offense to juden. "jew" is a variant thereof, that some people find offensive (and as shah said, most anti semites use that word) and others do not.

it also depends on the relationship of the person saying it, and who they are saying it to.

you can't take offense to something that's not offensive unless you're clueless ... i don't even care about the post being deleted, i just don't think it's good to throw around the term anti-semite or report stuff as such when it's clearly not and tarnish my already tarnished name round these parts

pm sent !
