About two pages that are completely off-topic.
One person uses a homophobic slur.
People freak out instead of blocking.
He trys to dig himself out of a hole instead of ignoring.

Some people don't like to block anyone.

It's not that big of a deal. I'm 25 so growing up calling friends gay and faggots is a thing. Just because the PC world gets their panties in a bundle doesn't mean I'm gonna stop using it. Doesn't mean I'm homophobic. I support gay rights. Get over it

You can't use that word in the forum.

 

[riverman]

I don't need to apologize if I don't want to. It's not necessary in this situation. At all. You don't need to do anything if you don't want to. It's a free world. There are lines but I didn't cross any. There are no real safe spaces in real life. No bubbles. I get so tired of social justice warriors trying to censor others. That's why I'm so bothered. So no, I'm not gonna let the social justice warrior win and let them think it's okay to dictate how people talk. It's not. We only regress as a society like that

ignorant speech is ignorant speech....that's why when you use it you help social regression...it bothers people and you know that so why be contentious in a basketball forum of fans? Does it really add to your basketball enjoyment?

 

[Cippy91]

@Cippy91 Not being racist doesn't justify using the "N" word. Just because you're not homophobic doesn't mean you can just call people that and not expect people to get mad.

I'm just saying the same people calling me out are the same people who let black people get away with saying nigga. These are just facts here. This started because I said "Clyde is a Faggot". Then five people get all upset about it. I'm saying Clyde is dumb. It's a different meaning. Kind of like how gay also means happy. It is in no way a shot at actual gay people. Like I said I support gay rights and have even seen gay people use this word the same way but I mean hey we live in a society where everybody just want something to get offended. I said it's fine and to stop. Everybody trips on me, what do you expect? For me to take it? Just sit here and get piled on? Naw

 

[Strenuus]

annnnnnnnnd back to the game! ... after halftime.

 

[Cippy91]

You act like I'm using it constantly. I said it once, haven't said it since

 

[EGame]

The championship teams in the 90's

ahh ok. thanks for that.

Such an idiotic post.

Mods, get this in order.

You need to stop digging. GTFO with your bigotry

And that's your opinion. I don't know it bothers that people. I actually saw somebody use Faggot in the form the other day and nobody said anything. So that's confusing. It was supposed to be funny, but people got offended. It is what it is

 

[illmatic99]

So there's a basketball game going on. And we actually played defense in it for a whole quarter.

 

[riverman]

I'm a social justice warrior....question is , why aren't you?

Dude, STFU stop using that word. Holy shit.

@SlyPokerDog get on this man

 

[Cippy91]

Doesn't matter if that person is gay or not.

Hopefully you can filter it out, it'll be better for everyone.

Okay then sorry for using it. You see what I'm saying though. People automatically calling me a bigot. That's not fair at all. I'm not one but it's okay to just call me that? It's a little out there

Replace the word you used with the "N" word. Do you think that wouldn't offend anyone either? Would you defend that in the same way too? A slur is a slur...

People aren't "automatically" calling you a bigot. They're rightfully describing the things you're saying.

We have multiple members here on this forum who are openly LGBT. Not acceptable.

 

[VenomXL]

Hey guys, basketball is my favorite sport. I love the way they dribble up and down the court.

 

[Strenuus]

Wait, they dont get courtside for the visiting broadcasters?

 

[BonesJones]

Do road commentators not get to sit courtside?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

You act like I'm using it constantly. I said it once, haven't said it since

I've deleted at least 3 of your posts in this thread because of it.

 

[Strenuus]

LOL!

Much easier to just ignore ignorant posts imo.
Stupidity isn't worth your attention sir.
But to each their own.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Just stop I'm trying to watch the game, if you wanna talk about it in message cool but I'm done

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Depends on the arena.

Thanks for the apology. I am gay. You are young. You friends talk this way so you think it's okay. I didn't call you a bigot. I was just trying to explain to you why it was offensive. Thanks. Say no more. Now let's talk about the Blazers.

 

[Tunchi]

This fucking team man
