A few JUBbers seem to have to inject their own personal bias into every HOT TOPICS thread even though the thread has nothing directly to do with that. I can name some of the worst offenders but I don't think I need to. Just look at the current Orlando shooting thread for examples.

Some even invent pointless and silly HOT TOPICS subjects in order to vent their personal views of such things as Islam (which properly belongs in the religion forum). Perhaps the solution is for Moderators to be more vigilant in detecting inappropriate uses of this forum and to move the threads as soon as they appear.

But in the end, I think the solution is for every poster here to remember what JUST US BOYS is for and not use it as a vehicle for spreading his own personal prejudices unrelated to the gay life.

See, this is why Donald Trump needs to remember what AMERICA is for... ;)

I remember you using HT to have a bash at me and other members in the past.

Though generally i agree with you, too many threads seem to bleed into each other, that's why i made the MOD thread last night so people could have a break from it all.

Sadly a lot of our more humourous posters like Ram and illgetbi have left so there's very little light and shade nowadays.
 
I don't care much unless it is really obvious...like 100 threads in a row bashing Hillary Clinton definitely belongs in politics so I could ignore it if I want to...but it would be a lot more annoying to ignore it in HT.

I think the solution is for every poster is to be an adult and take some personal responsibility for their own fragility and learn how to use the IGNORE BUTTON.

It is really very easy.


:)
 
It would be much easier for a few people to make the IGNORE BUTTON unnecessary.

(No smiley face. No winkie face.)

But then you'd have no one at all reading your tripe.

Obviously the arrow must have hit the mark because it appears that you are feeling a little fragile there yourself...No?
 
I recently cleaned out my ignore lost just to give a few people a chance again. I do it every now again because ultimately maybe they changed or aren't doing what they do when it comes to the reason I put someone on ignore, unfortunately people made it back on quick.

And please save the "people use the ignore function because of differing opinions", which I understand can be true. But like in real life people also ignore other because they are just straight up fucking annoying.

There is a time and place for certain discussions on things, but the people I am thinking of don't understand this concept or just straight up don't care.

There are people on here who rant and rave where inbetween the lines they might have a point. Unfortunately they don't understand where to let up or are just too angry to even attempt to have a conversation with.

You have to remember that a lot of times, it is just trolling.

Some posters love to see us at one another's throat and they know the buttons to push. They know that all they have to do is post something about Muslims and everyone will take the bait.

Some posters are pure ideologues and see it as a great moral crusade to warn us of the evils of the religions and politics they hate at every turn. These are the humourless, toxic souls who literally have nothing else in their frame of reference to even talk about. And all one can do is call them out when they take a topic off the rails. The worst offenders have been warned and they usually pull back.

It only takes an American election or an event like Orlando to grant full license for them to rant and spew. In the latter instance, the event is so inextricably linked with lgbt affairs that it was only natural and predictable that it would provoke the discussion it has. To their credit, the Mods did move to separate the thread as best they could in order to quarantine the politics and the issues about guns....but I think in this case, it is impossible to keep any thread focused away from politics or religion or debating gun control because all three are huge parts of the story.

In about a week, it will all settle down again. This event will just be another footnote in history and hopefully lighter threads will arise to fill the space.
 
Rareboy is right: the Orlando events have elements that naturally bring out opinions about gun control. homophobia, Islam, and other contentious issues that people feel strongly about. But I am more focusing on other threads that are either posted as troll bait or that certain JUBbers twist to use as a vehicle for their particular monomania.
 
I don't see why not. Freedom of opinion is what changes minds and helps us grow as humans. I disagree with moral censorship. Just because one finds a view offensive doesn't mean someone else won't want to see that opinion.

I don't care that he kicks dogs. If god didn't want dogs to get kicked, he'd have made them much taller so they'd be a lot easier to slap.

Anyway, I'm just quoting your post [again] so those who have you on ignore (see purple pussy avatar post #8) will have to see it.



Speaking of purple, though, I'd like to take this opportunity to take a stand and say that purple cabbage is creepy as hell. It's unnatural and ungodly.

I too can recall that incident, i was also mentioned in a post by the op. However, he does raise a valid point. I am sure many here can remember me rolling around in the dirt with certain members.

It was actually something six posted after the death of Lewis that gave me pause for thought. I don't think i am as "naughty" as i once was. Though i must confess, the temptation still lingers.

Yep.

But too bad, I guess.
