Mod check

I suspect some puppetry in the "What if you had a gay child" thread in General. Can I get a mod check on this? Suddenly, we have 3 posters advocating violent repercussions to homosexuality, if not outright murder of homosexuals. The thread's been civil, so such an insurgence of that is suspicious.

EDIT: Start with Philandro's post about halfway down this page, then go on to the next page: http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=371524&page=25&pp=15

They are not, as far as I can determine, the same poster. Also, one stated that if the kid committed suicide or left, problem solved. This is not directly advocating violence.

I would characterize the responses as predictable and thoroughly disappointing, but at this time see nothing worth warning for...

I spotted a fourth making a quick get-a-away, it seems. I was actually under the impression that advocating death/suicide was against NS rules. :confused: Meh.

That's rather odd.

I'd argue that the two people who used the "Gunning people down" smiley weren't exactly suggesting blowing kisses, but I really don't care. Such idiots leave the forums quickly enough, anyway.

Eventually, they'll mess up and make a mistake, and i'm sure that when that happens, the mods will be there waiting.

It was not direct such as: Go kill yourself, I'm going to kill you... it was "If they were to kill themselves it wouldn't bother me."

If I am to moderate smilies now, there'd be few posters left on NationStates... :D

Oh, damn.... ;)
