Persecution!
I started a thread on the PC PowerPlay forums today, entitled 'Homosexuals are gay.'
Underneath it I wrote, 'Discuss.'
It was looking to be quite an amusing thread, with the discussion kicking off like so:
No1 "I think they're more queer than gay."
No2 "Definitely gay."
Me "I'm going to have to meditate on this."
Things were looking up, but a few posts later and a moderator had deleted the thread. That shouldn't suprise you.
So a few moments pass, and I get this private message from 'Coconut Monkey', the moderator, as it turns out, that did the deleting:

.....for a rather silly thread in Rhubarb containing unsuitable content concerning homosexuals. Please read the Forum Guidelines before posting in future.

I was going to let it pass, as it's a pretty standard consequence to get a warning after such a post, but then, in an IRC server, far far away:
[16:11] <HappyLemon> Circastes: send back a well-written and annoying as hell reply
As the only worthwhile thing in life is laughter, I took HappyLemon up on his proposal, and squeezed out the following:
Hey there, good buddy;
I'm shocked and appalled at this forum's unwillingness to discuss a major ethical topic even in the lowest tier of the board. I feel it is my duty to fight for ones who cannot, and it just so happens that homosexuals fall into this category. I have only recently decided to take this stance, and I'm currently testing the depth of the water by informing members of PC PowerPlay's forum about the various syllables associated with 'homosexual' and homosexuals alike. I feel it is important homosexuals are recognised with every name society has attached to them, including faggot, fag, fairy, nance, pansy, queen, queer, poof and poofter that way when we RISE UP AND BREAK YOUR SOCIETY DOWN INTO PIECES THEN ENSLAVE YOUR CHILDREN FORCING THEM TO DO GAY THINGS LIKE TUCK THEIR PINK COTTON SHIRTS IN AND WATCH LAW AND ORDER you will know exactly who the enemy is; we do not wish to be labeled terrorists. I mean they.
I would like to go on but I'm having a few friends over for sodomy and cream pies tonight, and I still need to get all the shit off the walls from last week. I think it has dried.
Regards,
Spencer. ;)
PS. I am not gay.
I am now banned from the PC PowerPlay forums.
