I understand that thsi masuggestion may be a bit tedious for you but as you know this forum uses English as it's main communication tool.
I would suggest that you write yoru posts in your native tongue and provide a google or other English translation with it so that we can know that you are attempting to communicate from a foriegn language perspective.
BTW what language is that?

It was Russian I believe. And I am fairly certain he just said "Comrade let them go to hell"..

russian: пусть идут к черту [ Let them go to hell] per googles little online machine

I am not a fan of Bells but if you are going to make a complaint against someone make it a LEGITIMATE complaint. Her ability to translate Russian in no way makes her a trouble maker. It only means she busted you in trying juvenile tactics of trying to make friends via secret code. Is RedStar obligated to regurgitate your opinions because of common language or heritage with you. Get real.
 
I don't think arauca has done anything wrong necessarily, he is just expressing his opinion in the wrong way. There is a way to have a legitimate argument about homosexuality and its place in culture.

In reality, though, like I said, it shouldn't be an issue. There are bigger problems in the world, like the utter destruction of the working class by capitalism.
 
yep clean up time is warranted... all off topic posts zip...moved or do I have to start another thread using the same OP?
note: It takes a lot of discipline not to react to the flaming of a poster.... a lot... so the sooner they are moved the better.

You make a very good point. I wasn't able to keep up with the details of your suggested solution but I do understand and empathize with your original concern.
 
I lost the plot on this one a while ago

I consider this thread now derailed... what now?

I don't know. I lost track somewhere between the proposition that the site lost forty thousand members and the idea that this has something to do with moderators offending the membership.

I figure to just let the discussion go on, so folks can get whatever off their chests.

This is borderline.

You would be better off writing "Homosexual rights undermine the meaning of marriage", or something like that. But, you should also say why - otherwise it just looks like you're making unsupported claims based on personal prejudice.

You should also use a neutral term such as "gay people" or "homosexual people" rather than "Homo", which is usually regarded as disparaging and offensive.

Finally, remember that homosexual people are ... people. When you refer to a person's rights, you talk about his rights, or her rights or their rights, not its rights. Homosexual people aren't robots.
 
I believe I would be correct in saying that most topics are started with the goal of acheiving something. "Acheivement envy" could be the main motivation behind most posters who appear to be wishing to derail a threads goal. How many threads acheive their goals I wonder.
