mawby Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 He was banned for this post. A few posts before JB had already given a general warning for the comments to stop. Generally speaking ignoring JB isn't a wise move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 It involved tensile strength and the mischievous allusion to excessive PSI.

Eve Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I think when a female member joins the forum to use it as a platform to pimp herself out for a ride in a supra and posts naked pictures of herself in an open forum she deserves to banned and she opens the floodgates for the barrage of insults that followed. You think you are being Galant by rushing to her rescue but if she is big enough (no pun) to post as she has she is big enough (still no pun) to defend herself. The blokes get away with it on this site why are you over protective of the loud women and not the loud men????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blokes get away with it on this site why are you over protective of the loud women and not the loud men????? I feel its unacceptable to treat a woman like a piece of meat. There is a general approach from some members to assume any woman is fair game for their lewd activities all because she has posted on a forum. If a new member chanced upon that discussion they would have a very strange idea of how the forum works. They might assume its common place, and its hard enough encouraging female members to join the forum without them thinking their first post is going to end up in some discussion around what they look like, what they enjoy or even getting to the level of discussing gay sex in their first thread. I asked nicely for people to behave, it was flatly ignored within a couple of posts and I took the decision to put a 1 day ban in place. KSLB happened to be the first person to make that mistake, Im sure others would have followed so he got unfortunate really. Others will hopefully take note. I really do not like the 'stag do' mentality that litters this club. Each member has a right to be treated with respect. Recently we have lost Linda as a valued member of the club, and we have also lost our only female moderator and that leaves a gap in our experience which I hope to rectify quite soon. Take another read through that whole thread and then tell me if it was acceptable for the discussion to end up where it was? And also if it was acceptable to allow it to continue in any shape or form when my request was ignored. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB As a female i agree that the lack of a female mod needs to be sorted as I find the above post sexist and I am sure that had a female mod read the offending threads in their entirity they would not have hesitated to ban the offensive female. With regard to the piece of meat comment you have made i think that wallicechic was the first person in the thread to portray women as a piece of meat by displaying that photo and posting as she did. Also from your above statement it is clear that you are actively trying to recruit women and this in itself I find offensive. Surely the aim of the forum should be to recruit supra enthusiasts irrelevant of their gender. I also think it is clear that kslb's offending post was not only, in my humble female opinion, a joke, it was not meant to be offensive. If you remove your obsession with the gender issue for a moment and imagine it was a man it was referring to then I am sure you would find it ammusing and your sexist stance would be as clear to you as it is to me. I feel that the ban should be lifted and wallicechic should be made to answer for her offensive behaviour, not to women or men but, to the supra enthusiasts of this forum.

Sheefa Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Finally, Homer (Darryl) a mod with decent sense came along and closed that thread. I've been harsh in the past and out of order to others, I won't deny that, but openly calling her a fat whale (when she's clearly not) or variations of this is bang out of order. I'm surprised a few other members haven't received a temp ban Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As simple as that - and to prove I'm not sexist I'm going to lock this thread the same as I would if a male member disputed a moderators decision in public.

Branners Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Im not sure I can be bothered arguing, but its a slow evening, I can fit you in. The thread had already gone way off topic and in to an area that was unacceptable anyway, yes? I asked for people to behave on that thread, yes? KSLB openly and blatantly ignored that request, yes? So he got banned for ignoring my request. I do not actively try to bring in female members, I do however believe we should encourage female members if they show an interest in supras as their presence on the forum is few and far between. kslb will remain banned for ignoring my request to behave.
