Well, I can't shake the feeling that you are plotting a very utopian scenario and opening the way for further littering of the forum by it.
I don't mean to say that I don't see part of the point of these arguments, no way is perfect, but personally I think I'd rather trust the administrator though, rather than risk complete chaos and the ubiquitous insulting of each other's users.

But I'm not saying I can't be wrong. We will see who wins the election and which approach the majority prefers. :) Both candidacies (yours and daszekmdn) can be seen to be well thought out and good luck to you both.
Surely either option will be better than what has been here so far. :)

Okay, here is a scenario. A racist term is used against ablack person, in South Africa, such as the K word, or calling them a munkey. Would you let it go? Sure we could archive it, but that person would have to see that word or terms everytime, they came across this topic. And experience trauma. One can argue they don't have to read it, but stil. To me it seems like lets hold on to stuff, no matter what if a person gets hurt psychologically.

I can put the same arguement or question, such as the Jews are blamed for the faults of the world. Or when it comes to someone's sexual orientation. Do we say that person can say whatever no matter if the other party is affected or hurt psychologically? This could include forum posts or someone's status. Thoughts would be appreciated.

Has there been a serious forum or community, which approves racism? I really don't think so, but a valid question anyhow.

No, there hasn't, or wasn't. I was just curious to know what the addmin to be would've thought. Especially dealing with the war topic, or some statuses in the other thread.

umm well just because someone sessomething will that have any inpacked at all the anser is no should it no but if for some reson it does then you were not rased right also that ties in to the alagation thing witch was ansered and if it is acived why look at acived things anyway if you know they are there for a reson

I'm following the developments of both this topic and the other one. I'll craft a coherent response tomorrow. Interesting conversations are happening, and I'm glad to see it. This is evidence enough that our community isn't inherently broken and insightful conversations can happen.
The only thing I'll say for now is I think the stance I've taken has vindicated me.

Also I think 25 is saying something that someone said on the internet shouldn't impact you.

You wouldn't have liked to understand what I had to say anyway consiter it a good thing.
