Why the move?

I had started a thread called The LGBT Army - Now recruiting (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=442863)

and it was moved to gameplay.

I didn't mean for it to be seen as gameplay. It's just a thread for the LGBT community in general to congregate in and talk about LGBT issues, not to roleplay. the army thing was just a stupid name because of how people claim there is a militant gay agenda.

Would it be okay if we move it back general? please?

Yeah, and my talk about invading regions was a joke that apparently went over the head of the mod who moved the thread. It wasn't a Gameplay thread at all, IMHO.

I actually did read the thread past the title, you know. However, along with the title, we have these:

Based on these posts in particular, it seemed to me that you and the others were involved in planning an invasion, in which case Gameplay is the proper place for the thread.

I've no problem with a LGBT thread in General -- just copy your first post, put a new thread into that forum, and leave out the roleplay/invasion aspect of it.

I'm not the mod that moved it, and I read the thread AFTER reading this one. Your little joke reads as straight-up (pardon the pun) Gameplay. I'd have made the same call, as the thread reads now.

It may read as that, but that's why we are here, to point out the fact it was a joke and that the thread was not meant as, nor taken as by us who participated, a Gameplay thread. If you wish, you may remove the joke if you think it will be too subtle for some, so that the thread can be moved back to General. I would not like for a joke of mine to lead to someone's thread being moved.

Okay I'll start a new one.

Thanks Fass! :p

Maybe I should change the name of the group. Something less militaristic.

The Rainbow Joy Kids or something

don't worry - it's no big deal - my main concern is those that put their name in to join might not find the new thread. Oh, I'll just link to the new thread on the old one.

Well, I guess it's settled then. *spies cheekily on mod who locks this thread*
