Politically incorrect, correctness...

[TheCrybKeeper 300]

How about I say here, that the CJ containing similar thread title needs removing.

I will not help someone move that trash, by moving it up the list. I really seriously, would rather start this useless thread, than promote Epics' thread.

 

Epictruth: Why such controversy? Why at a game site? Is it because prejudice, is really just a game to you?

 

You should be ashamed, if that is your idea of humor.

 

You should be ashamed, if starting trouble is your hobby.

Good one frndo. I hesitated to post in the other thread... because posting in a thread means supporting it (I could slap myself now...).

I wish I read your post before I posted there.

He stayed online for the entire time, obviously he just wanted to stir up trouble, and that is exactly what he did here. I'm ashamed I participated in it, personally, and I apoligise to anyone who I may have offended with my posts in that thread.

My feelings exactly. I almost posted too, But by golly, the thought of it even being given any attention, just boiled my eggs!

EDIT: No worries Vid. After all, the thought only just occurred to me as well.

 

If a moderator wishes to remove my new thread, that would be just fine. I just had to do it.

True....looking back many of us should have ignored the work of Epictruth since all he wanted was to see what our reaction was...we were just feeding him some entertainment as we danced about like the ignorant allies of such a person who loves to toss hate into a peaceful crowd such as ourselves....

I dont think a moderator should remove this thread, I think everyone should see both of these threads, there is obviously a lesson to be learned here, both on the members parts (don't fuel hate) and the moderators parts (we need people that will be online at the time of day with global mod capabilities to handle these situations)

Skyscrapercity has a team of about 150 moderators and administrators to cover 26,000 people, and about 4000 daily posts, Simtroplis has about 25 covering 100,000 people and about 750 daily posts. Aside from that, Skyscraper city govers the globe, and has moderators from almost evey time zone, if you look at our mods, there are maybe 3 or 4 outside North America and Europe.

Well, that thread has been removed. 

 

EpicTruth has also been banned.

And his IP address tracked, I hope, to prevent future posting under different names.

 

EDIT:  Even though everyone above is right in saying that his CJ should have been ignored rather than responded to, it's really great to see so many members outraged by his idiocy.  It's very reassuring to know that this community is filled with people who know stupidity when they see it and aren't afraid to call it out.

Excellent decision... terrible shame for people to think this way... there is political correctness gone mad such as banning playing conkers on school playgrounds or not being allowed to call collecting ideas 'brainstorming' but it now has to be referred to as 'thought showering' in case it offends people??? (you have got to be kidding me... love the UK government). However what was seen on that thread was ugly and can't really be classed as political incorrectness but outright racism from a bygone era that was a shameful time. To me it is old history that you read about in John Grisham novels. Entertaining to read as it is fiction but a reality that was a terrible time.

Heres to the mods not fannying about ha ha!

 

Good work

I've had no time to reply before it has been deleted ... Epic Truth ( the wise is searching the truth ... the idiot have already found it.) at any degrees this was pityfull...

Don't talk about what is politically correct or incorrect , you're simply ridiculous .

 

At least , even as racist troll you're bad ; you have forgot a gay concentration camp .... I felt rather upset with this .

[ILL Tonkso 1,237]

Hmm i never saw the thread but if were going to discuss political correctness gone mad, lets move this thread somewhere like the off topic forums?

[mayormommy 8]

Since ski removed the CJ is question several hours ago, I think this thread will only cause confusion. I'd like to thank the 7 separate people who reported the offensive content - and yes, it was quite offensive and well beyond the bounds of politically incorrect.
