 Hey all,

Report came in for the thread, and I apologise that it was late, and I've been asked to pop by.

Sorry global women. You will continue to be objectified and commodified in all media because Endorph and some other internet lesbians think objectification is hot and okay.

This post is half a hair short of earning you a sixer. I'm honestly inclined to just straight up give it out, but I would prefer that Goons just not be fuckwits with each other.

There were a couple of spicy hot takes around this post as well. I legit get that there's a lot of completely justified anger surrounding the fighting game community controversies atm, but please try to funnel it in the right direction and be more constructive with your posts.

If anyone else is being a turd ITT please hit the report button, or PM one of the Idiots Three and we'll drop by to sort it.

I'm sorry if you would rather have this pmed to you but I don't understand how something incredibly hostile and hosed as that, especially calling people "internet lesbians", is only half a hair short.

If all it takes to be on just the right side of arguments is to not just directly tell someone they're pretending to be gay for internet points then Jesus man

Not that's fair, I've asked the mod team to take another look at it as well to ensure a warning was the right call.

 Sorry I posted this in the wrong thread!

Yeah nah this thread is right.

I've listened to your feedback, gone back to have another re-read in context, and they've been giving their marching orders.
In my role as IK I am trying to be as supportive as I can be, and I want you to know that I'm I 100% have your back if someone is being homophobic/bigoted/racist/etc in threads.
I hope this comes across in my posts whenever I have to stop in and make a decision, and I apologise if I give off a brusk or flippant impression by posting like an Aussie :v:

In this case I made the wrong call the first time, as my personal modding style is to issue warnings more than probes.
They're off for six, and they'll be looked at by a mod on top of it.
