saying something about Kurt Browning knocking up Scott Hamilton's wife is something a lot of people take to be offensive. It was unnessecery... don't see anything CONFUSING about that

Re: Fetal: for him or against him?

HBFan, Fetal's comment was an attempt to be funny that fell completely flat, but his intent is evident by his tone. He has been offensive before on the subject of religion (and a few other subjects), but he got bounced for proposing a Swiftian eugenic solution to providing male skaters of talent in North America. (For those who don't like ancient satire, Jonathon Swift, when not being charming about Gulliver and Lilliput, suggested in a satire that the Irish eat their excess children as a solution to the potato famine.)

Frankly, I find those posters who want to tell me how hot underage teens look much more offensive than this failed joke of Fetal. (the kiddy porn issue).

Hopefully Fetal will take his more PG (this suggestion didn't even rate an R) attempts to Uncensored Forum when he returns.

When a forum has 1000 members, it stands to reason some number of them will be more easily offended than one might expect.

You just don't log in and you can read everything (unless the board can be viewed only by registered users). I log in only when I know I'm going to write something. If I don't have time I don't bother.

yet you'd allow under age teens to be subjected to the type of comments that are just gross?

funny or not it wasn't needed.

<blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Since each computer has an IP address, I'll bet Paula has a way to ban any given IP address from accessing Goldenskate.[/quote] Sure, but he's not banned forever so I thought that she's just probably banned his username, or email address.

Plus, IP banning is not perfect, some people's IP changes.

Re: Fetal: for him or against him?

I agree with the suspension.

Re: Fetal: for him or against him?

Hi everyone. I haven't been able to come here in ages, for all sorts of reasons no one cares about. What a lot of changes! Oh now, not Fetal and Lad Skater leaving too! They were my favorites, besides rgirl, to read. Say it's not so!

Re: Fetal: for him

I miss fetal... His educated/slanted humor and interesting topics were a lot of the reasons that I came over here frequently to read.

There are posters at other boards whose comments I simply do not like...so I do not read them.:evil:
