And that line was shut down by engineer_comp_geek , and quite properly as it would lead to a thread hijack.
But he has a point. There is a group of members here that claim to be supportive of a kinder, gentler, more welcoming SDMB, where sexism, racism, (but not ageism) transphobia, homophobia, misogyny and all sorts of things be banned. And who can be against that? We all want a kinder, gentler, more welcoming SDMB, don’t we? But that same group loudly supports a forum where it is Ok to call some poster a cocksucking cunt bitch, where internet bullying not only goes on, but it actively encouraged.
That is a dichotomy, and hypocritical to boot. Either we want a kinder, gentler, more welcoming SDMB OR we want a SDMB where bullying and personal attacks are Ok. You can’t have both. A board that allows and encourages bullying and personal attacks is NOT a kinder, gentler, more welcoming board.
I honestly don’t recall anyone ever calling someone a cocksucking cunt bitch.
First of all, the cocksucking part calls to homophobia and doesn’t fit well at all with cunt bitch.
Secondly, the entire construction is just off somehow.
Thirdly, I thought this whole thing was settled. Wasn’t there a vote ages ago where it was decided to leave the Pit as is, but to no longer include vile evocations in the titles?
We have already had multiple threads on the subject. Starting another one isn’t helpful.
Instructions to all: Do not start more threads on why we need to get rid of the Pit. Do not post that we should get rid of the Pit in unrelated threads.
