While I disagree with it (feeling that bitch is like dude, and gender neutral), McNally asked us not to use gendered insults. It's his house, his rules. I slipped up, he was nice enough to toss a warning than a sixer. I appreciate it.

ok, well i guess any use of the word gently caress outside of telling someone to gently caress an inanimate object or themselves is off the table, lest we condone rape.

Sometimes I think that McNally’s language rules go too far. Then I read a post like this confirming that we’re not missing anything of value.

This isn't really one I'm going to come down on because I slip up sometimes and use it too. This is mostly getting ahead of certain posters who throw tantrums when they get hit for openly being misogynists and some will go on a reporting spree whenever someone uses borderline words.

No, not at all. It’s no more his forum than it was mine or Vas’s or EBB’s or loving Grover’s when we were mods.

Being a mod means that you get a couple of extra buttons to do bans and probations, plus access to some mod only forums and the reports system. That and a blue star next to your av. That is it in its entirety. It’s the dumbest “job” in the world, and nobody with a shred of self respect would take it very seriously. There’s things to take seriously as a mod, but being one isn’t one of them.

McNally strikes the right balance. I 100% disagree with the no using of bitch as an insult, but I also recognize in a larger context- The vast majority of the SA forums is pretty much in concurrence with him. So it’s not like he’s just playing PC police- the times and people here are changing. He’s guiding the herd towards the larger SA community’s standards and that is good. Being the black sheep or problem children will end up being the end of this great little group if we don’t get at least somewhat in line with everyone else around here.

Still a great sub forum and community, it’s not like I’m gonna stop enjoying this place because it’s slowly gentrifying to the level of an upstate liberal arts college professor.

Conversely while mod is the dumbest job ever, IK loving rules. Just don’t let that kiwi Two Finger have a probation button.

Who the gently caress is running these C-RAM’s anyway? Are they run by contractors? Or do we take navy folks who know how to maintain CIWS or whatever and make them do it in land locked Afghanistan for 6-12 months?

I’m all but 100% certain it ain’t the USAF or USMC running those guns, so my best guess is Navy folks under Army opcon or contractor/civilians. Or Army owning them and having the folks for it, but something tells me the Army isn’t putting joe on that. Just a hunch, could be wrong.

Anyone know?
