i know why youve done that Kathleen but that thread was quite interesting and now its closed because Gaz is making sick racist comments. i had one person on ignore once but then i had to take them off cause i couldnt understand what was causing all the arguments.

i know he could easily rejoin if he was banned but we would soon realise who it was and get rid of him again . he will get bored at somepoint surely?

Free speech is all well and good but once the topic of racism or religion comes up, that's when it gets iffy. He's getting away with saying some sick, messed up things.

It was a good thread - with alot of different opinions. I cannot tolerate racists though. I agree with Ice - name one positive thing that he has contributed to the board. He has never done anything but cause trouble.

i dnt see the racist thing that he did but to me he just seem like a litte boy who wants to try and annoy as many people as possible so he says what he thinks will get the biggest reaction!! and if he does mean what he says he needs to wise up!! im sure it will come with age sooner or later!

Actually unless you are 'taught' otherwise I'd think that people are not inherently racist. Young children will happily play together without caring what skin colour each is no different than they would think of hair colour or any other difference, it is only when they grow up and are told bad things by idiots that they start to form these stupid racist opinions.

yea true!! but i think hes just immature and trying to get a rise out of people by saying them things! and now that everyone is on his case he thinks its great so keeps doing it more! he'll grow out of it as a lot of teenagers act the same!

I agree with Ponrauil, for the full 100%.

This is still "just" a message board though. For all I care he can cause all the trouble he wants. And when he'll put stupid comments up, he'll find people that will stand up to him. Unless threads are locked...

I think some of you are making too much of him.

I split the thread and put the gaz crap in the Trash Can. I hope that will be something everyone can live with. If he makes any more questionable posts, please report the post and one of the moderators can delete it.

In one way you are entirely right. On the other hand - it is very tiring to "stand up to him" and constantly wind up in stupid pointless arguments. I guess the racist stuff just crosses the line in my opinion. Especially since he just had many privleges taken away because he was personally attacking people. Even on "just" a message board - a person should not be attacked personally in my opinion. You can disagree with someone all you want - even disagree very strongly - but don't attack that person personally.
