Can we bring this thread back around to it's actual purpose, discussing the transphobic comment on BOTS.

I've said all i've got to say. I think Niamh and I will continue to disagree, and that's where it will be left, I think we both would prefer not to speak about this or anything else to eachother for quite some time.

Well as long as you both believe this and stay away from each other we shouldn't have a problem like this again. As much as this forum is here to discuss different opinions, name calling shouldn't be brought into it and that's often when threads go completely off track.

And rest assure we know what we're doing re: elproximo and if he plays up again he'll be punished further.

I think that El Proximo has gotten off very lightly with a one day ban as most of his comments are extremely homophobic and/or transphobic and seem to be posted just to upset people or cause arguments.

I just read this thread and my impression was that Mods will continue to discuss it, as MTVN stated in an earlier post, so hold your horses.

Yeah, that's also why I said just a day "for now", as Niamh said ElProximo is only recently back from a 3 month ban so it's not like we take this stuff lightly

You are male or female depending on your hormonal make up and DNA not what body parts you have.

Just to clarify, the post you quoted me on was in response to the following:

I don't think that she was being deliberately transphobic though.

Please close this post down its creating discord and going nowhere. The one side cant stand to hear critism and the other side cant post their views for fear of being infracted. Its a go nowhere subject as its so one sided.
