personally, i believe that subforums ought to be allowed to apply whatever standards of moderation the posters of that particular subforum in concensus establish. and as can be observed from the response in the original thread the posts in question occurred in, the resident posters of c-spam do not, overwhelmingly, consider the reaction of the moderating hierarchy to fit the posting environment of the thread, in the forum particular.

posting my thread (practical balaclava knitting) of future potential in the Creative Convention, i would not make a joke calling the resident mods pedos. in contrast, i am going to call the mods pedos while posting in FYAD and c-sPAM. fluffdaddy doesnt get to decide whats acceptable in cspam, nor does he get to decide what warrants a ban+30 in cspam. thanks, goodnight

personally I wouldn't join a group that has had credible accusations made against it, contained people who stalked girls, posted bestiality, licked toilet seats, were actual, convicted child rapists, wife beaters, people who were diaper furs, sniffed girls hair on the bus, had sock puppet accounts to agree with themselves, and of course the list could go on forever here, but you know... a few bad apples doesn't spoil the whole bunch...right?

sorry, i thought i was making my point clear with the whole "context" bit that fluffdaddy was violating in his/her moderating choices. my point was that in in context of an in-group, such jokes can be dissociated from the source of their humour, and even traumatic subjects be used as subjects of humour. it isnt a question of skin, thickness whatever, but posting in an environment where one thought such jokes were permissible, and was disabused. of course, if you believe that you ought to be allowed to decide whats permissible in places like FYAD and lite, thatd be your prerorragative

i dont want the right to post pedo jokes in the creative corner, nor ask the right to mock posters therein. i just wanna be allowed to do it in a place and environment where it doesnt bother you. cuz you dont post nor read the spooky spectre thread in cspam. nor does fluffdaddy, except when somebody reports a larry post. and then he reads the other guys post, and poof goes 30 bucks i spent on this bloody forum

Love to post on a comedy forum where the mods willfully aggresively violently refuse to understand jokes.

goondolences and you should resign immediately, for the sake of thy soul. and maybe fluffdaddy ought to consider resignation, if this duty is truly this heavy. like, why would you even want to be a modmin if you hate explaining yourself this much? like, dude. reconsider your priorities

Sheesh, okay, that explains a lot. I was wondering about that ban, because I've also heard of psychological research which indicates that pedophilia is essentially an inborn trait and not something you can really blame people for, just for how they act on it. There's a hell of a difference between saying 'they can't help it and we should acknowledge that' and "it should be treated as being on the same level as morally acceptable and legitimate sexual attraction between consenting adults," though.
