jefjef




The accused are suspected of:
bigotry
making comments about what gender i am.

comments: as i show in the screen shot below this kind of comment below should not be allowed on this site this player gets off with making comments towards others and i feel it is about time you deal with it. from what i understand by this comment he is saying i am gay. as for the trolling bit all i done was make a comment that jefjef was taking the thread off subject.

wait for it...

keep waiting...

BOOOM!!!!

Who would have thunk it?

I've seen jefjef say a lot of bad things, but "get bent"? Is that what the complaint's about?

Let's hope this is finally the straw that breaks the spurious report's back to get Eddie banned.

Then clearly, you don't understand.

It has nothing to do with sexual orientation, dude. Stop stretching.

I think a pair of muzzles would solve this thread which I predict will be locked very quickly.

Yes. I shared candy with eddie. My bad.

So. Let me get this straight. So when JJ tells ME to "get bent" he is referring to Eddie's gender? OMG! JJ we need to talk!

Isn't there a long vacation waiting to be awarded by the mods for this lovely spurious complaint?

OK OK OK!!!

HOLD UP JUST ONE SECOND!

THAT TID BIT OF INFORMATION IS TMI, MegasWoman

But I must know, did he tell you this on a Iowan dirt road or while you two were chasing tumbleweeds in Texas?

Inquiring minds want to know?

Well, now, Stunna...He's not very discriminating as to where we are when he says it. But I am expected to obey...whats up with THAT? It's freaking COLD on those Iowa dirt roads!

Am I the only one who noticed that Eddie is saying jefjef thinks he's a woman?
I didn't think that someone saying someone else is GAY has anything to do with commenting on what GENDER the individual is. By the title and gender comment, do you mean sexual orientation???

Because if you did, confusing someones gender and someones sexual orientation are COMPLETELY different things.

And everyone else is right, "get bent" has nothing to do with sexual orientation. you misunderstood.

Well you do not know what has been said behind the scenes we must not wall pm each other. I have followed this you might see this comment as whatever you want to. but like i have said before my kids read along with me, (jefjef knows this and my kids see this comment as someone getting called gay. but not coming out about it.) So i am in my rights as a paying customer not to have what i find offensive posted on my wall, by a player that has been told not to by several mods of this site.

and yes you say foe him but all i can say i will not foe other clan leaders in case. god help me saying this we have to comunicate at some point.

Thats what PM's are for. And if your kids read this stuff-and you let them-then they should find some of YOUR posts very enlightening.

FOE AND MOVE ON. And still a spurious complaint.

MOD EDIT


I just googled "bent" and that link did not appear anywhere on the first four pages. I got tired of looking after that.

You also have the right to FOE. As for communication you have spammed my inbox a few times with the knowledge that I get and open them despite my having you foed.

This complaint is spurious eddie and you know it. You should receive a vacation for this.

As for "get bent" it has non sexual definitions:

-get drunk until unconsciousness
-fuck you, f*ck off
-get angry
-get arrested

Now if I said "get bent over" then that would have had a sexual meaning and yet still not be a slur.

GL eddie. Thank you for the Birthday present and have a nice day.

MOD EDIT

Eddie to be on forums (phpbb) you agree / acknowledge that youre over 13 years of age. I your 8 year old was allowed to read and google the words, she's not supposed to be viewing to begin with. This shows more of a lack of supervision / parenting then a problem with jefjef.

Theres much worse things being said onsite, and if your concerned with her googlibg things being said at that age you should supervise better. It's not bigotry, like megas said foe and move on. I can find lots of words to type in that have lots of meanings...innocent things too. That doesn't mean those words should never be said does it?

Of course not.

A lot of you are clearly not aware of British nomenclature, I would classify the phrase 'get bent' as an example of a bigoted statement offensive to homosexuals akin to other statements like calling someone 'queer' or a 'cockmuncher.'

Is jefjef British? "fag" is bigotry in the US but is a cigarette in britian. So if someone from britian said it wouldnt you argue context and intent? Of course.

He's not british, that wasn't the intent, it's not the meaning in the US.

That's not the intent? His intent is clearly to flame eddie from what I can see on the message and he did so with what seems to me a homophobic slur, that is very different to say 'just going off for a fag' as in cigarette, if I was to write on someones wall 'you fag' I don't think I could justify saying I was calling him a cigarette.

No. His intent is to clearly tell him to "fck off". In case you haven't noticed JJ is not exactly a quiet, shy kinda guy. If he meant it in a SEXUAL way I'm sure there would have been dinner and a movie first. C'mon now. Show us all where "get bent" means anything homosexual.

Is this really being discussed as vulgar? It was a catchphrase on The Simpsons, for crying out loud.
