OK,
I am seriously pissed off about the way a small number of people responded to this issue with the male/male tickling. I don't have anything to say about the actual posts being deleted or whatever because I haven't had time to talk to the people involved. Which is exactly my point.
What is wrong with some of the posters here that they can't wait 12 hours for people to wake up and wander to the TMF and see things happening. Dodger, to name names having already publically announced my feelings there, made three or four hostile posts after several responses by Morandilas (MTJ Pub) stating that we were going to get to this as soon as Myriads had time to look into it.
And really, do people need to be told that? Have we not demonstrated time and time again that we desire to encourage open debate? For christs sake, grow up! Myriads has allowed Psycho to accuse us of being sinners right here on our Forum, and I have allowed competing companies to freely use the TMF. We have nothing to prove to anyone.
And furthermore, what makes anyone think that there will be no censorship on the TMF? We tell you right up front that there will be censoring of material, to keep flames from happening and to keep things calm and orderly. Censorship is not the same thing as discrimination or suppression of ideas. To use two examples someone else gave me, Disney is not discriminating when they fail to show pornography in their cartoons. Likewise if I don't like liver, and I censor it from my diet, I am not being unfair to liver.
Our deeds and policies here speak for themselves and I'm not going to defend them. Dodger immediately rushed to AMT in a righteous frenzy and posted TWICE with subject lines of "Subject: the TMF is a hoax! KUJMAN demands Males tickle Males!" What he was trying to accomplish I don't know, but it wasn't the productive and positive resolution of the situation, which is the standard we are aiming for.
This situation will be resolved in good time. In the meantime, try not to take things so personally, and make a real effort to have some perspective about how important this really is that you can't wait 24 hours without freaking out. Really, what's the fucking rush here?
