Kalypso:

I have the same question, I had a big thread filled w/ bands and stuff for people to download and it was deleted… any reason…

According to Mr. Wizard what you were doing was illegal. Have a problem with the decision take it up with him [doubt you will win] cause he closed it.

kthanksbye

He didn’t close it, he deleted it

I mean, music downloading IS illegal, but it’s so low on the scale of illegal no one has ever been convicted for it. Only distributors.

It was just a thread of band and song names, and it kicked ass Oh well.

I would have liked for him to close it though, I really wanted to dl that stuff.

then you should have put it as undergrond song titles, and not how to download the music.

Alright. Is it alright if I re-make the thread with just underground music and not anything about downloading it? I made the thread because I wanted some new stuff to listen to, it was working, I’m sure other people liked it too.

Can I?

MrWizard · 2006-01-04T03:05:29.000Z

sure

Septimus_Prime · 2006-01-04T14:55:25.000Z

Just to make it clear (and to post something so that I can check if I still have Premium), I do edit thread titles all the time, but it’s usually just fixing up grammar or censoring profanity (so please don’t cuss in thread titles).

Ender’s the same guy that told me all Asians look alike and it’s not his fault because that’s just what he sees also. I don’t recall ever making any derogatory and stereotype comments about Mexicans on this board, so I don’t know how stuff like that is allowed.

You wouldn’t say something like that at your work right? I think it’s messed up that racial comments like that are just fine on this board then. It’s not that major an issue to me because reading this board is only a small part of my life anyway, but I’m asking insensitive posts like that get watched more closely from now on if the mods are going to be so tight about anything remotely derogatory pertaining to Blacks then.

Weeks · 2006-01-04T15:55:23.000Z

Jesus christ, we can’t talk about pushing bitches down stairs at work, either…so should we be banned for that here?

if so, you’re definitely gonna need a cover sheet for your posts from now on man. or did you not get that memo?

seriously though…someone might get offended by a lot of things here, we can’t be so sensitive that we try to save everyone from having their feelings hurt. but sometimes that shit does go overboard. if ender really feels that all asians look alike, i dont see why being honest is so bad.

Slide:

When logging out, it gives me an error the first time, and I have to relog out to properly log out. This happens everytime. Might be a problem for anyone who doesnt check after clicking the log out and instead just X’s the window. Someone else could roll up on the computer and be on an account they know nothing about.

^still happens.
Does this happen to anyone else?

Omega_Viscant · 2006-01-04T20:00:19.000Z

Hateful Smurf’s changing thread titles, and random posts, for no good reason that I can see, really needs to start back up. It’s just top tier.

…seriously.

MOD · 2006-01-05T01:43:23.000Z

probably wouldnt count if I had suggestions LOL. yes wasting time of others is my hobby.

Zazzarius · 2006-01-05T11:40:21.000Z

I later changed that to “a lot of them look alike to me” because I realized that saying they all look alike wasn’t fair and was the same stupid shit black people have to listen to every once in a while. Also, I was pretty sure I was only referencing it as concerns asian women, explaining my confusion with yellow fever.

And here, I’ll make some Mexican comments for you.

-Mexicans are poor
-Mexicans usually have to take jobs cutting grass because they can’t get good jobs
-There’s no “y” in “job”, “Jack in the Box”, or “Jerry Springer”

Who cares?

Roxie doesn’t come out and get all bent out of shape when we talk about women being stupid and pushing them down the stairs. And I guarantee you there are a lot more women than blacks or asians in this world. But Roxie is also the shit.

Basically, there’s no need to get your feelings hurt over what other people are saying about a certain race. I learned that a while ago.

FMJaguar · 2006-01-06T05:03:17.000Z

kcxj - while I agree with you in principle, there is nothing short of making srk into a strategy-only forum that would prevent people from posting like that. It’s not all bad, i think.

I mean you haven’t lived until someone complains that you deleted their thread about pushing a girl down the stairs. “wtf, thats ALL i did”

P.S. there was a clear difference between the two threads as well, that was the determining factor more than anything.

If you’re deleting illegal threads (My monster music thread) why is there a 3-page thread about pot untouched…

FMJaguar · 2006-01-06T05:55:35.000Z

I don’t know anything about your monster mash thread, if that was to me

Kalypso:

Probably because they’re not selling it to each other or talking about selling it to each other.

If you were talking about your favorite music that you downloaded, and left out all mention of what you used to download it, I doubt your thread would have been shut down.

You can’t sell pot to each other on an internet forum. Well, you can. But not like you can download music illegally.

Just let it go, man.

And on another, unrelated note, I remember that this thread was NOT supposed to be for crying.
