View Full Version : The use of gifs

In many respects, some of these gifs used to respond to posts, can be and are, in the main, hilarious and raise a titter. However there are some people that use gifs that infer things, that if written, would get a ban, or an infraction for, yet they are tolerated.
Why are some people allowed to use these gifs when they are clearly mimicking, or are being used as a vehicle, to insult a fm. I find it quite wrong they are not removed or sanctioned.

I agree, I want to say more, but don't want another warning.

well, we could say that you can just block people talking about FMs rather than HMs if it bothers you, but you get a warning anyhow.

Turn off images then?
They've been fairly tame this year in comparison to other years (especially speaking for myself)

yeah, I don't really care either, but the fact is that you get a warning for it.
Using gifs to attack FMs is no different, tbh.
All I am saying is let's be consistent.

Well I never use gifs as I believe in freedom of speech but a lot of them are pretty funny. There are some members on here, you included who constantly bang on about reporting people and threads and infractioning people or closing threads.....it's tiresome.
You are like Big Brother producers and closely monitor every single post and if you take even slight offence or deem it offence to others then you feel it's your duty to bring political correctness to the world.
Stop trying to make the forum boring and if you don't like someone's posts block them or ignore them and just debate and chat to those you find interesting.
This is simply my opinion of witnessing your threads and your often preaching others are offensive when they disagree with you.

You probably need a warning for talking about FMs here, tbh. Keep it to the HMs.
Consistency and all.

Okay so you're allowed to insult people but we're not allowed to use gifs? OKAY!

See you've just contradicted yourself again by putting my post down and acting like a passive aggressive child.

Now on the face of it that statement looks and feels rude but its exactly the same as some of the difs used on here which some people use instead of words. I got 3 today, all on different threads , all by different posters, with a gif of a woman condescendingly looking at me and saying shut up, Ive also had on saying aw fook off, these are not right.

FFS I was using it as a tool to explain my point and both you and t jumped on me. It was done to prove a point and it obviously worked. Point now proved.

I love Sams posts...he spends time putting them together and I love his blunt honesty. Don't always agree but I find him funny. There are many on this forum that get on my tits...but it's a forum, we have different opinions and conduct ourselves in different ways. Just accept it.
I don't even look at the gifs...more interested in reading opinions.
