But regular poasters advocating a perma should probably lighten the **** up
this is where i was for a while, but the problem is the somewhat positive responses he's gotten inspired racist idiots like yeota to come out of the woodwork.

sorta like how greear's over the top homer shtick insipired awful posters like rmthawk to become cheap greear knockoffs and completely ruin the baseball thread and run off elite posters like kyleb.

I'm not trolling, I am 100% serious.

I use to like dkgo until I learned he was racist and apparently he's a homophobe too. The only way to deal with ignorant people is to shun them from regular society until they either learn the error of their ways or jam an ice pick into their faces.

tut may have had a rage problem but he was a great poster when he tried. epipen might have had a brain problem but his posts were acceptable. I don't allow myself to be associated with people like dkgo because it would reflect poorly on me.

What do you say to the black/minority posters who post here? Sorry? **** that, off with his head.

Easy solution: ban the idiots, leave the good ones alone. Greear was always kind of an idiot though.

I'm all for freeing TuT (even though he's probably found a new identity as a certain slot receiver), but that has nothing to do with dkgo.

CDL is right though - all the rape jokes here make me feel uncomfortable. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THE WOMEN WHO POAST HERE?

Or we could just get a thicker skin.

I dont care a single bit about any of this personally as none of it adversely affects me, but the double standard is silly.

I do have a close female friend who was raped and if anyone even uses the word she freezes up and cant speak for a few minutes. The way she explained it to me once (after she had a breakdown because someone used the word) was that her coping mechanism was to completely forget it ever happened and that even tiny things like meeting someone with the same name as the guy could trigger flashbacks to the event which put her into physical shock. I have never heard of anyone having a reaction to a racist comment that is anything near this bad, but I guess its possible. There is no reason to have a double standard on this where something with lesser effects is punished and something that could actually be crippling to a person is let go.

Like I said, I am all for letting it all fly, but lol at the mods if they think racist jokes are worse than throwing out comments about rape.

dkgo is the kind of high volume poster the forum needs. clearly he loves attention a little too much and will blow himself up eventually. of course he'll return with another name and everyone will quickly figure out who he is and things will go on as normal.

never really understood this 'don't perma this guy!' attitude when they always come back - their penalty is not being associated with having made a billion posts

This is the only post worth reading in the last 100.

DK hasn't been funny in 6 months because he's been forcing all the racist **** to get a reaction. Its stale now and its getting guys like yeota and more recently phb to say stupid racist **** for the same reason.

dk's mistake was Fig Guying it up in the wrong forum. He really, for many reasons, should avoid politics. There's way too much overt racism and homophobia that has to be dealt with in that forum for anybody to give dk a pass.

The rape thing is just a total strawman. The rules of the site have always explicitly forbid racism and say nothing about jokes in bad taste. If the rape jokes upset people enough that there were loud enough noises that somebody made a rule about it- then that would get people banned too.

It's not a double standard. Rape has unfortunately become a catch all word to describe anything the speaker wants it to, however people would probably get banned if they repeatedly used "rape" when referring to female posters or female athletes/celebrities. dkgo isn't "doing funny standup sketches" he is being a racist *******. I don't remember the famous Seinfeld routine "what's the deal with black people? They are all criminals and drug users and are worth 3/5ths of white people.

The problem with fig guy in politards is that there are not only lots of actual racists in there, there are like 100x more post reporting types. Also there are no more accomplished trolls than politard trolls, they will bait him constantly. Hes never, ever gonna last more than like 5 posts over there.

dk has 4 pages on infractions, mostly for similarly bigoted posts and 50 active infraction points. The length of the ban likely reflects that more than anything specific about his post.

To say nothing of the fact that conflating public nudity, homosexuality and child abuse is a lot more offensive and dumb than just calling somebody a fruit.

Nobody has ever called an asian person Lucy Liu or Jackie Chan before? Gtfo

I also called this white guy Gerard Butler because he had a beard that was straight of out 300.

Lots of butt hurt.

These both tend to fall under mildly offensive, but wildly unfunny.

Maybe think a bit about the difference between these two situations and why the first might be a lot more insulting than the second.

Well I'd have to see the exact quote to be sure, but if it's what mutigers poasted earlier then this is just a complete misrepresentation of what dkgo said

Intent matters. Yes dkgo makes racist comments, but he's practically never mean-spirited about it. Unless he's referring to Sham or Rivera specifically.
