Harassment

[Kope]

I wish there were more ways to personally make the environment better, especially for woment but eh, have to start somewhere. Still a good video, some things to think about.

This appears to be the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SLDgPbjp0M) they were talking about in that episode.

Listened to the video, the guy probably doesn't even know what an utter fool he sounds like and probably can't understand the controversy.

He's a real ass.

As opposed to what? This thread? (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=71326)

And don’t start with she deserves it because of her behavior. That makes about as much sense as this. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h95-IL3C-Z8&feature=player_embedded)

The topic is slightly different but the logic runs along the same lines.

I don't recall posting anything about Tralina either negative or positive, so not entirely sure what you mean.

I agree that many comments in that thread are horrible and unwarranted but I still stand by my comment about her reasoning, not about her being female.

Sorry for being unclear, I did not mean to imply that you did. I meant that they also must not see how much of an utter ass they are being. It's not just on some random youtube video, the behavior is plain as day right here on this forum and in this game.

Great post Kope, thanks for sharing. Sad how we can see all of what the episode spoke about happening right here in our little sphere of the interwebz.

In the same way they talked about limiting the options of newly created accounts, we could/should institute a similar system. No photos in posts created by an account under 50 or so posts. Moderator approved messages for the first 10 or 20 on a new account.

Something has to be done, and there are options.

I agree completely.

Niilbog asked for help...doesn't seem like he's accepted any. I just happily hit "report" but that doesn't seem to do much good.

I'm not even going to go into detail on my opinions about this. I'm just going to leave it as "pathetic attempts"

I am 20 years old and a virgin boy. My Right testicle hangs lower than my left testicle. I am very scared of this problem. How to cure this problem? Do I have to undergo surgery? Please answer asap!
