A note on the new sticky Hypocrisy

[Gildwulf]

Honestly guys, this is just a reminder of 2p2 policy, I don't really see what the big deal is. The only people that are going to get banned are the people that push the envelope too far and do dumb crap so they can be BBV martyrs.

That makes sense. I think CaptainBusto summed it up nicely with what's a joke and what's blatant racism. T-God claims we all know what the line is and no one is offended, but how can I (or you, actually) say that?

Really.. all I ask is that I can say "nigga plz" from time to time.

honestly, that stuff is fine; the problem is that 95% of BBV is not funny and when they see teh cool kids doing something they do it too except take the funny out. It's like watching a white kid imitate Dave Chapelle.

For example, a week or so ago someone posted a pic of nation and he is an indian guy or something. I was too lazy to reply, but if I had, I would have said something like "I always thought you were a negro". Despite the fact this is obviously 100% a joke, is this not allowed?

No dude, this is OK.

If you say "I always thought you were a Jew." it's banning time!

What if I'm jewish? Does that make it okay? If it does then I want everyone to know I'm a homosexual female jewish african american immigrant. There's also a strong likelihood that I have red dot indian/thanksgiving indian/asian/poor hygene european/eskimo/retarded blood somewhere in my lineage.

This is exactly why there is a sticky on racism and not other forms of prejudice right now such as misogyny, etc. I honestly don't think the other stuff has gotten out of hand, but racism has picked up steam pretty heavily and people need to be reminded that regardless of the BBV free-for-all style, 2p2 has some rules that are enforced or at least should be across the board.

You can't. Neither of you can, that's why I did. I got a 135 on an imode IQ test in high school so I'm qualified to make these statments.

I feel the same way. I don't want that phrase taken away from me.

And to think, if you didn't live in Wetern Canada you could be curing cancer or something.

What a waste of a T-God.

That so many of you seem to think this is an entirely new thing makes me very confident that something did need to be done here. Even if gildwulf had never been made green, I probably would have been deleting more posts, giving more warnings, and banning people more often for breaking general site rules anyway. And I most likely wouldn't have posted a new sticky to warn the whole forum before doing any of those things.

I've suspended and banned several BBV regulars for making racist comments over the past few months, and none of them seem shocked that their posts weren't appreciated. As I said before, this really isn't a new rule.

There is a very thin line in this kind of situation on who is joking and what is "irony". I have a sense of humor obviously (I thought Borat was genius) and I am willing to let things slide to a point. But if someone makes a dumb comment and some guy with 5000 posts says "lol ur such a sp*c" or "lol k*ke" it shows the guy with 1000 posts that that's ok. And that sets the whole tone for BBV.

Does that make sense to anyone?

Makes sense to me.

Guys, we can have a conversation here without being ridiculous.

BBV: I'm sorry that this kind of came out of the blue, but all I am saying is basically a reinforcement of 2p2s basic policy because certain people have been pushing the envelope too far and I don't want lol nig**rments to be the next BBV fad.
