Matrilwood Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Dermot is gay (Literally, not derogatorily) and he shouldn't have to hide it just to make others happy. There are two groups, us and them. How people treat "them" is entirely up to the individual. Just because some of these individuals treat "them" with disrespect doesn't mean "them" should just give up and be like "us" because lets face it, no matter how hard you try "us" and "them" will always be two totally different words.Me? I'm a yiff, and when I get the "furfag" treatment I simply sit back and laugh at how they remind me of a constipated version of Parsons from 1984. If you're different and others can't handle it, then that's THEIR problem, not YOUR problem.One of us... One of us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Para Astaroth Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I COMPLETELY agree with you, Matrilwood.If I were one of the people that are being accused for something (Which I am glad I am NOT), then I would simply ignore them and move on. More than likely, I will laugh at their insults and just move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabre Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 That's appropriate Yes, yes it is, because fools such as the op miss the point entirly as to why people don't like him. It's not because he's gay. it's because he hyjacks threads and posts images that break the rules and leans on discrimination as an excuse when anyone disagrees. THATS the problem.No one else here leans on sexuality, race, disablitys ect. to get their way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabre Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I beg to differ, if he has posted images that break the rules, well, everyone makes mistakes, move on OoOh I wish we could, but that's part of the problem. Move on, and he brings it up again, hyjacks another threads, breaks the rules again. On and on. I tried ignoring him, but no. Not enough. He PMs me out of nowwhere, get's someone in staff to keep throwing random warnings out without explaination, and after a while, HE COMES TO ME! Thats why I call him the abused spouse.Hell, I get reported if I so much as reply to a thread he comments on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabre Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Just drop it, guys. This is really starting a flame war... Correct, but given the op was pretty much "Everyone who disagrees with Dermot is a bigot!" we might as well go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Para Astaroth Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Sabre, seriously. Just drop it. We already get what you're trying to say.

As for the issue, it can't be dropped. It tied to me by elastic and only dermot has the scissors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Para Astaroth Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Probably the whole thread and it's affiliates.Its basically started a small flamewar as it is and we're just adding fuel to the fire. Mods or admins, lock this. The topic served it's purpose.(Sabre, just use the ignore option in your profile. I used it for a certain someone that got banned a few days ago.)

Sylum Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Then sort it out somewhere else. Get your ass to reporting him or talk to the staff. We don't care about your quarel with him. Fix it if you want it to stop. Lock please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix it if you want it to stop. Lock please.Already done. It's a slow process because he's a personal friend of DZ. My hope is that if I leave him alone long enough something will happen. That means I let alot of his crap 'facts' past without correction. I hate it when misinformation is spread like that, but time will prove the logic right in the end. There are 2 more rational thinkers taking up the fight against BS so I can lay low for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Monroe Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Why does this topic exist?No, seriously, why does it? Dermot's issues were all but resolved in his own damn topic, and here you come making another one with MORE issues that are ENTIRELY irrelevant to Dermot's issues. HIS issues (and the issues about him) are just like Sabre says: its not that Dermot is gay, its that ALL HE DOES IS BE GAY. He's not better than the over 9000 Krystal wankers that populate the KLA. They are also related to the fact Dermot feels ISOLATED IN THE COMMUNITY. He said so himself that BIGGOTRY IS -NOT- THE PROBLEM, the problem is he's the ONLY GUY WHO REALLY SHARES HIS OWN POINT OF VIEW ON THE ENTIRE BOARD. Henceforth, he feels lonely. Not to mention he HATES being the center of drama attaention, and this topic is DOING JUST THAT: putting MORE DAMN FOCUS on Dermot, which is exactly what he DOESN'T WANT. You are not being a hero, or a champion of some abused minority, with your generic speech about "durrhurr people are different and if you don't like it you can gtfo". You are not doing Dermot a service, but rather a DISSERVICE, and every point about him as flown COMPLETELY over your head.This topic does not need to exist. Someone delete this tripe ASAP.

DZComposer Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Let's leave this issue alone now, OK? I'm getting sick of this. I would much rather not use the banhammer to solve this problem, but I am running out of ideas. I have had to ban two people in as many weeks lately, and I do not like having to do that. I am getting closer to feeling that I have to put on the BOFH hat. Don't make me do that.I understand that some of you do not like open displays of homosexuality, but I cannot outright ban them unless I ban similar displays of affection in straight art. It's called being fair. This is part of my moral fabric that is not negotiable. If it's pornographic, then yes, it will get removed, but there is no rule against posting a gay couple or man thongs, just like it isn't against the rules to post a straight couple or a girl in a bikini. If you don't like, don't look.I cannot read every thread, I have a lot of shit on my plate right now, including some personal issues that I will not elaborate on, so do not ask. If the mods see anything they feel is inappropriate, they will deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
