There are plenty of posts that are posted on here (the majority of them being removed) that are offensive, but I truly believe the majority are to cause a rift rather than genuinely believing what they post, there’s a huge difference between a genuine transphobic/racist/homophobic/sexist arsehole and someone who has different opinions on a forum, but unfortunately when you are portraying the first one, that is how you are judged (and as I said, this definitely isn’t one sided at all, I’ve said **** I shouldn’t have said, but you live and learn) and eventually comes a time when people can’t be bothered with said forum and dealing with it.

I’ve criticised the admin team a few times, but reevaluating the situation, it is difficult finding a balance, cos bans being handed out on either side of the forum is gonna cause ****, so there really is no right way of dealing with it where everyone is happy, and there’s never gonna be.

Others have found places where they can go and discuss the stuff they want to discuss with the people they want to discuss it with and feel more comfortable around, and that’s great.

(And I fully believe this post is just waffle and will make no sense, but I did have a point... I think?)

No just waffle
