A message to the mods of GPokr

Good afternoon GPokr. For those of you that don't know me, I am a long time KDice player and current moderator for that site. I generally avoid moderating the GPokr and XSketch sites unless someone comes to me with an issue when none of the GPokr mods are around.

My reason for posting today is to try and get everyone on the same page with regards to illegalities on these sites. Recently there have been a few bannings on the KDice website for use of profanity. I fail to see the rules set forth by Ryan say anything about cursing or profanity being illegal, unless you consider profanity "hate language". I personally define hate language as a term or set of terms used to belittle a person or group of people based on their social or ethnic group.

Terms such as "nigger", "faggot" and "spick" come to mind when I think of hate language.

Terms such as "fuck you", "suck my dick" or "you're a little bitch" are examples of profanity.

I have personally heard Ryan use profanity on MANY occasions both in chat and in posts.

This begs the question, why ban people for using profanity?

I'd like your thoughts.

Thanks,

Thrax

it was a bump + a new idea which gives reason to the premature bump

maybe he doesn't re-read everything he writes (unlike you) and forgot to add that information, and instead of admitting it he made it look like a bump

Thraxle, it was recommended that ppl copy n post abusive chat when no mods r on line, so that they may deal w it as they see fit.

No, No... none of you mods are doing this right except for Lei, she's the only one thats actually had a MOD KILLING SPREE. You guys should all learn from this and ban me as many times as you can to get your inner rage out. If gurgi was a mod i'd probly get banned for pgaing him

If it matters, Zoid
