Like Urbanyst said PK, you cannot be direct in your insults. Calling someone a straight up faggot is way too direct because the term 'faggot' is derogatory just by itself. Saying that someone sounds stupid is way too direct because the word 'stupid' is also a derogatory term regardless of whatever context it is used in. And therein lies the issue. Because there is absolutely no wiggle room for debate of what you meant by that. It very clearly was meant to be an insult, no ifs ands or buts about it.
If you mock someone though, you could claim your intentions to be different. 'You aren't very bright' obviously means that the other person is dumb when you read it at first glance. But it could also mean that they aren't very happy/upbeat too, or that they literally aren't shining in light or something. See the difference? No words used in that sentence is derogatory by itself. That's why other posters don't get banned.
Another thing, you directly insult the person whereas other insult the idea. Someone says something absolutely stupid, you call them stupid. This is too direct. You need to say 'that idea is stupid'. Because now you are insulting the idea rather than the person. The reason why this matters is because when you insult the person, it means everything that they have said in the past should be disregarded and that everything they will say in the future should be as well (because if they are stupid, that means they can only give out stupid advice or stupid ideas). But if you insult just the idea by itself, it doesn't necessarily mean that the person will never have a good idea, it just means that his/her current idea is a bad one. Not that all previous and following ideas will be, which is what is implied when you insult the person direct. That is the difference between your insults and another person's insults.
Plus, if someone else were to insult, they would explain why, typically using the word 'because' immediately after insulting them. E.g. "You're stupid because....."
Yours tend to be "You're stupid." Next paragraph.
Those two words have a whole paragraph for itself, showing that the stupidity of the person is it's own separate thought and idea, thus emphasizing the stupidity of the person. Yet because it is only two simple words (which usually are bolded or underlined for extra emphasis), it is mocking in the sense that those two words describe every aspect of the person. If someone were to say 'you are stupid because...' it would lessen the insult since using the word 'because' means that if you fix that one aspect, everything you say and have said COULD have credibility again. But you leave your insults in their own paragraphs which completely voids this possibility, even though your following paragraph tends to explain the other person's stupidity.
In short: it's not what you say, it's how you say it. People can read tone through your text more so than others. That's not a bad thing because people read your posts with more weight attached to them. But that also means your insults have more weight to them.

Agree.
No straight answer because TRUTH is not encouraged here.
It is what it is. I've accepted it. But I also want to expose it so that all men posting here know exactly what the situation is and there isn't any "guessing" about what this place is all about and how it operates.
@Tenacity You have proven NOT to be a "faggot" in the end. You can take hits like a real man and keep going without crying for your mommy (the mods) to help you. That's the true test of inner strength and integrity. You fight your own battles.

Well, I'm glad you are starting to take notice lol. But yeah, we all need to start acting like GROWN a.ss men on this forum and not like the "bytches" we complain about in the dating market.
- I've had guys like Taiyuu Otoko put me on "ignore" because I didn't agree with 100% of what he was saying.
- I'm sure I've had guys report me to the moderators before over other "disagreements"
The stuff is childish and woman-like. Reminds me of a chick when she adds you on FACEBOOK and the moment you break up with her, or post something she doesn't like....she "blocks you" or "reports you". Just god damn stupid.
If you have a problem with somebody, take it to them and address it to them. If you can't agree, then agree to disagree and move on. That's my stance on it. But Poon King with that being said, like I told you before, you could not be running around calling people "fag.gots" when they disagree with theories you posted. That was just as childish and "bytch-like" as well.
Hopefully we all can move forward. We are all MEN operating in America in 2017, which means we have much bigger FISH to fry. It's hard being a MAN today for a variety of reasons, so we need to continue to discuss, debate, and bring viewpoints to the table that can help MEN deal with the B.S. we have to deal with on a daily basis.
So if we are to follow this posters logic for what constitutes a "fagg0t" (in his eyes).....are we to assume
that his best friend @deesade who comes to help the poster "fight his battles" is a fagg0t...... seen as he admittedly "went running to the mods" to cry about @9Volt.........
What's good for the goose and all that....
...seen as hypocrisy is a theme....
speed dawg

Good point. What is the saying, ultimately at the end of the day, you have to stay in the game. You can't change anything while you are banned.
That's what's great about passive aggressive attacks. They can't really be proven so people get away with them. It's very indirect language.
I'll tell you this.. they sure as heck weren't compliments to me. It was devalueing language, suggesting my opinion didn't matter because I can't keep a woman longer than a year.
