I don't care if you agree with me, but I care if you make this place an unfriendly environment for some people. Dude I’m not and no one else is complaining. If the mods have a problem they can tell me. You don’t talk to anyone else like this? You're not? I guess if you edit away the comment sure. No one else is commenting defending looking at women like utter objects but you. No one else is saying "well it's not out fault, women don't like swords at all anyways".

It goes beyond that really stupid moment in forum history. How many times has Mok had to step in and tell dudes to stop being creepy? This is like the 3rd time I can think of in recent weeks. It isn't just one time, and folks don't seem to take a hint. There was other times? Gotta admit, they might have slipped by my attention. Or maybe my brain repressed them lol A while back a sword company used a woman as a model. Of course most comments were drooling over the woman.

Yeah I'm not a fan of skall but hey, it's good for his channel and good to see he's doing well.

Of course most comments were drooling over the woman. Now that I think of it... There has been more than one time I've seen stuff like that happen and wonder if women would be uncomfortable with it. But I guess you kinda just get used to it around circle of dude friends, and get used to thinking of SBG as such, when it's actually a public forum. To the mods, I admire you willingness to deal with these situations. Reminds me of my security days that I do not miss As for skall, I don't feel the guy actually cherishes his swords, so I hope he treats this one well. I get that it's a sacrifice for the viewers, but if someone started beating the semprini out of a sword I got them as a gift, I don't think I would get them another (referring to the single edged viking sword).

Never said that and I’m done chatting with you. When someone else beside you tells me I’m the one in the wrong maybe I’ll listen

Truth be told, I plan to live low my entire life anyway. But still, it's good advice to be mindful of what's posted online.

I reported the cheesecake photo last night, with a reminder in thought that this is a family oriented forum 1. A safe and family friendly environment, which the staff and moderators will work to provide;sbg-sword-forum.forums.net/thread/18656/quot-rulesMyself? I am a certified and reprimanded jerk but I don't dance around that first rule. I am reading a lot of "so what" "Dude I’m not and no one else is complaining. " and I am reading that from a teenager with too much time on his hands and is accepting zero culpability for being a loud mouth, ignorant, attention begging teen. Simply ignoring him will soon calm things down a bit but the more you feed him, the more he is going to reply. It is only limited by our own acknowledgement of his presence. So, yes, I complained and am complaining some more.

The more I think about it, the more that unnecessary detail didn't need to be part of that scenario. But man. You are straight up obsessed with that I actually agree as well but the thing is that it wasn't a "rape themed Rp" that is a disingenuous description of what that fictional scenario was. This disingenuous framing of things is completely unfair. Not a single mod nor Jon himself shot me a PM or anything or I would have EASILY modified that one word it in the beginning.
A large percentage of our active forum members participated in that thread over about the course of a week or more including mods and Mr. Frances himself until he started complaining FIVE PAGES into it.
Yaldabooth, you might know this but I shot Jon an apology/olive branch right after that whole thing happened and he was unwilling to acknowledge it.
I ditched that thread kinda early lol. It got too heated

Disingenuous is flicking off a "sorry if you were offended" note after posting a degrading retaliation thread that was rightfully nuked off the face of the server.
But anyway, super cool that skall got a sword to play with.

I didn't feel like I needed to change my screen name in order to distance myself from my creepy fan fiction afterwards. But as fun as this trip down memory lane is, tacos are more interesting so peace and love in the new year.

The digression to idiocy was apparent by the 3 post. It did not start as a PG13 thread. We're also supposed to respect a rule set. An awful lot of threads are well enough labeled to avoid having to read this tripe. I had read the first three posts leading this thread and fast forwarded to the end to see if there was anything that was worth reading. I reported the cheesecake and the blue meanie scolded the rest leading a youth astray. Yes, SBG will always be regarded as the forum that had the most fun. One by one, the crap gets deeper and one by one, some stop replying at all. This is my complaint thread and I'll complain if I want to

Ignorance is a statement of fact, not an insult. It is an opportunity for one to learn what they are talking about. Feel hurt now and in a week, you'll be sending me a pm re my own experience (just as before).
Yes, a lot of members are ignorant regarding any given subject, just as I am. For instance, I have never field stripped an AR-15 and as enthusiastic I might be on the subject, I don't jump into an AR-15 thread flooding such a thread with my own opinion.
Your now playing big dog as proxy just underlines how ignorant of diplomacy and rational discourse one can be.
I made a statement in that thread and anyone feeling hurt about their knowledge might simply not continue to have to apologize for being ignorant.
Get it?
