| About this dispute going on... everybody chill. These days the word "gay" is not used to describe something as literally homosexual, but a synonym for bad, disliked, etc.
I agree, "gay" isn't the appropriate word, but you have to look at the context in which the word was used. As for the updates? Good job with the page reducer. Keeps it much more organized. I'm thinking an overhaul on the photo album would be nice. |

Originally posted by Vyper The word "gay" is still used to refer to people who are homosexual (regardless of whether you think it is or not). The fact that this word has become a synonym for "bad" is a commentary on how some people see homosexual persons. "Gay = Bad ?"  And you say it has nothing to do with homosexuality? Don't make me laugh.
If you use the word "gay" to mean "bad", whether intentionally or not, you are being insulting. And where I pick up on the word being used, I will not tolerate it. If you mean "bad", say "bad".  |

| Vyper your definition of gay is Personally when I say something is gay, I half say it because of the subject matter, and half to invoke the other person, ie. "your mom's a fag" is much more effective than "your mom smells funny!" |

| Look at it this way.
In the high-schools of today, one of the most commonly used put-downs is the word "gay." It's not used to call the person actually homosexual, but to show dislike for said person. Get where I'm headed? Either way, I think sonicandtails needs to use a better vocabulary |

On occasion i use the term "gay" when i talk about something offencively but i dont delude myself into thinking i am free from being callled a homophobe in doing so. You shouldn't either. |

| Isn't this thread supposed to be about update progress? What we need is a Hide Offtopic Posts option. Lol.
Anyways, I do think at least having the option to display all of the page numbers would be kind of useful. And I don't see how it could hurt anything if it was disabled by default. (edited by rubixcuber on 10-05-06 11:35 AM) |

| tunabot 1.95 (tb_int 0.95, tb_nklr 1.1) done.
max time 600 seconds update resolution 1 second up from 300 sec max time and 2 sec resoltuion. It should stop dropping things now, or at least update faster. It's hard to tell.
edit: nevermind, tunabot's fucking broken again, I'll fix it later (edited by Xkeeper on 10-26-06 08:19 PM) |
