i think the homosexual poll is getting offensive

hey i'm kinda new, but i got an issue with a poll about homosexuals. i know people have their views and such, but some of the comments are just down right lewd and offensive. i don't really know what to ask really. but if some one could smack some in the head and tell them that they are playing nations not nazi rallies that would be really help full.

They have a right to free speech like all of us here on NS, though it is limited. You just have to try to ignore it.
Sorry

What goes onto this site is deemed appropriate or not by the moderators. Any further censorship is just downright wrong. If something is offensive to you that is part of the game (Issues) then leave. If it is other players, report it.

Here's an answer to your quandry, when you wander onto a link you find disturbing move the little mouse arrow over to the back button on your browser and click it. If you see a title on a subject you find offensive fight the ghoulish urge to peek everyone displays at a car wreck and don't go in. Hope it helps.

Free speech?!? Ha! No such thing in "MB's Father knows best state". We are free to post what Max deems appropriate, nothing more.

:idea: I suggest you cry about it and try to get anyone banned that you can.... offensive people are mean and not very nice..... only speech that you agree with should be allowed here... please, if my sarcasm offends you try to get my IP blocked, it will serve as lesson to all of us non PC degenerates....

Doesn't matter what you agree with. Offensive are, by nature, not tolerable though. Of course it is debatable what "offensive" means, but since you agree they are offensive, clearly it is best they be censored.

I completly agree...censorship protects us from dangerous ideas and unwanted knowledge... in fact, your procensorship ideas are against the principels of the first amendment... I declare a Mod alert on your fascist jargon.... MOD ALERT MOD ALERT MOD ALERT .. this procensorship thread is offensive to me, please ban all posters on this site!!!!!
