When used to describe a person it's a racist term with only bad connotations. And if you or I called someone that, there wouldn't be thread upon thread extolling our virtues. If Phlabby did indeed ban Kirksey and Kirksey did indeed call someone that name, then Phlabby has my respect for doing his job. But the people acting like it's OK to call people racist names and then pretend they don't know why the banning took place? 😞 If I'm wrong and Kirksey didn't call anyone that name then I apologize.
Your avatar is very fitting for recent events.

And Kirksey did not call anyone "that name."
Phlab, if you are still around.....if I typed out the two words, would that be ban-worthy? I am curious.

Don't you have some moderating duties to occupy your time tonight? Have you spoken to Hand of Hercate about presenting himself as a klansman?
I'm actually watching the Pats beat up on the Bills, and taking a break once in a bit. I got a message laughing about this LAME THREAD and gave it a quick scan. You guys are going to give your ego a blister, might want to cut back on the stroking.

I don't know why someone would lie about his friend like that though. Really, I understand this place less and less each day.

Originally posted by pawnhandlerKirksey used a racial slur. That much is certain and admitted to by his friends and I think even himself. The defense is more that the slur wasn't intended as a slur or wasn't a slur at all or was acceptable because, in Scrib's words "Kirksey is blacker than most black people"

I'm guessing that Sunburnt is manipulating the truth by saying that Kirk didn't call anyone that because the slur was directed at himself and Dr. Scribs.

Originally posted by pawnhandlerNo problem 🙂. I understand it less and less too. I don't like the way people on this site twist things, so I was asking for clarification. Phlab PM'd me with an answer. Thank you, Phlab.

Q: Reverend, it's no secret that a lot of RHP members look up to you. You are probably a role model for many of the more junior members. I'd like to give you this opportunity to share a "scared straight" message, to tell them just how miserable it is to be banned, and what steps they can take to make sure they don't repeat your mistakes.

Originally posted by DoctorScribblesDoc, I guess I could go round and round with RN challenging his lies but it would simply be a case of "he said, he said." Probably the most "scared straight" message I could get out is just ask people to not forget those who as Shakespeare said "show us the steep and thorny way to heaven" but who cannot heed their own advice. You and I remember sitting around the sacred campfire and hearing the wolves howl into the night. We remember our hispanic brother called out as "brown trash." The clock is ticking for another eruption, but this one from another active "volcano."

Of course, you may continue to falsely accuse the Mods or Phlab of persecution, but what you'll never be able to explain is why they are supposed to be persecuting you.
You've been accused of racism many times in this forums because of your blackface act. Maybe it's time to rethink it. It's not only stale, it's in poor taste.

There are some here who need to rermove that literal thorn from their behinds and relax.
By the way, my quote and reply of the Paynka comment was an accident. I wasn't responding to you Mr P.

The post that was quoted here has been removedThere's nothing inappropriate about posting such a picture, as a joke, in an UNMODERATED PRIVATE forum - the very type of forum that was brought in to allow such capers outside of the pulbic forums. There'd only be grounds for complaint if the legality of the image could be questioned.
P.s. I wasn't even warned!© (blart blart repeat until ears bleed)
