Starbuline is a banned member.  She tried to join here as SchmooSpoons but she's only 16 so she was banned.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

I see what you're getting scrapheap but I agree with those who've said that as long as the material isn't illegal (which the examples you used were) it should stay no matter now distasteful, but only to prevent the site being shut down by the host.  Rather than possible illegal content just being deleted I'd prefer it if it was moved to the WC (out of view of the public) to be discussed so that we're all sure it is actually illegal, rather than relying on the word of one staff member (not that there's any staff members I don't trust to make this decision its all about transparent management).

I wasn't certain of the legality of this,
so I avoided suggesting it. This is exactly
where my feelings were, on the subject,
though.

Here's the thread.  Though many banned former members can't see it...

http://www.wrongplanet.net/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=39332
Hmm, that thread is accesible to any kid that wants to go there and they are talking about penis enlargement and dicksize.

Oh come on.
Like one isn't exposed to that anywhere?

Apparently I'm banned from WP, now. I don't know why.

Didn't even know you were there.

I agree, Calandale.  

However,the point of this is that it exposes MrMark's hypocrisy.

same difference. it's clearly wrong.
Well it is wrong in most cases, but when it amounts to satire then its perfectally acceptable in my mind.

that's different. i was talking about private people. not people in public already who have made that choice.
Good that we are on the same page. Some people do deserve to be ridiculed though, so in special cases i would not object to it happening to them.

So if someone posts vids of Michael Jackson being beaten, we're all cool with that, right?

i'm not cool with it but i'm tired of trying to draw a line in wine.

Your language is getting as slick and contorted as Lucifers
And calandale, a 50 year old man discussing his penis in clear access to kids is a little inappropraite dont you think. Its a lot different when it is done on a forum rather than on some silly website.

I certainly don't think that.
I wouldn't do it (though I'm
not QUITE that old), if I did.

I see no problem with that post
OTHER than the hypocrisy. This
is someone who bans teens for
being potty mouthed, after all.
