Censoring Threads Sucks, Any1 agree?

[HANSEL]

I think censoring threads is worse than having a couple of lame topics, dont respond to them if they suck and it will go away, if you are responding to it, it deserves to be there.

that depends hansel. If someone is trying to make a joke out of anorexia and cancer then that's a problem. There is no place for that on a bodybuilding discussion board. These are life threatening diseases. People die from them everyday. THey are not something to laugh about.

He got flamed then went ahead and posted a link to pics with seriously sick girls. girls that are probably close to death. Do you think he learned his lesson? I am sure he's really not a sicko. He's probably a second handle of someone else on the board trying to be funny. I am all up for a good laugh, but that was a little sick, if you ask me. I think their is a very fine line on what should be censored or not. Those two threads deserved it HANDS DOWN!

 

[HANSEL]

But he got flamed and corrected.

We cant eliminate all threads because we dont like them.

I am not a big fan of censorship either but certain topics just shouldnt be joked about and because people are such moral dsylexics this shit must be edited

but that was a little sick, if you ask me.

If "you ask me"! Exactly my point. I didnt find it so offensive that we could not talk about it.

So Give it a Thumbs down and move on forgetting about it.

Hansel,

I understand your point. Censorship is bad because it can lead to other things. If let to get out of hand most of the threads will have to be closed because something always offends someone. In the case, I completely agree with the mods. Sorry. If it starts to offend more than 60% it should be closed.

I agree with HANSEL. There are lots of ugly things in existence. Ignoring them may make on feel better, but it doesn't erase them.

Additionally, if one makes fun of something unfortunate, let him be bashed. Allow him to say his part, though.

The policing of thoughts can be a very nasty practice.

Yes, I know the trauma of post-censoring myself, and it's not pretty...

 

[jackangel]

I'm with you on this, HANSEL. I'd rather leave it. I can't think of anything I'd want deleted, objectionable and offensive though it may be.
