OK, this could be a problem.
Because of all the new, "improved", gay internet browsers (both IE and Netscape), it seems to be impossible to use email without going through the hassle of the gay MS Messenger or Outlook. So I have no idea what my email address is, or how to access it. I use Netscape 4.5 or whatever the newest version is, and I frickin hate it because of all these gay new "features".
My favorite browser ever was IE 3.0, because email was actually easy to use and you didn't have to rely on a bunch of other companies gay products.

David,

I realize it's off-topic, but do you mind if I ask what you mean by "gay internet browsers", "the gay MS Messenger", "all these gay new 'features'", and "other companies gay products"?

No really, what those browsers do is gross!

Wow, I hope you guys are just trying to be funny, because I have to tell you your remarks could certainly be taken as deliberately offensive.

I would hope that there is no room for bigotry in these discussion forums.

you have a problem with the way people talk? Go live in a cave the rest of your ****ing life.

Anyway this thread has gone too far off topic. If you really wanna discuss this go to CivNation off topic forums.

Mr. Temba, if someone slurred you publicly four times in a single posting, would your reaction be to "go live in a cave the rest of your life"? If so, well, all I can say is we are very different kinds of men. Me, I will *definitely* "have a problem with it"! I don't think my response was any different than that of, say, an African-American who came across a posting with the term "nigger-rigged" used four times in a row.

When someone, in a public forum, seems to be going so far out of their way to slam me, I'm going to call them on it. In those circumstances, a quiet cave somewhere is one place you won't find me. Sorry.

Right on, Tim! Stop the juvenile gay-bashing, once and for all.

mrtemba · July 31, 1999, 01:02

hold on...what did I say about this? was it..

a ) continue posting here by all means I love to hear about this

or

b ) go to an off topic forum

mrtemba · July 31, 1999, 01:06

and whats more just for the record, I find it sad that you can't accept the way the majority of young people talk today. Such impartiality and bigotry really isn't a good thing for society.

>hold on...what did I say about this? was it..

Mr. Temba, I'm sorry, but my original note was a response to Mr David Floyd. If you do not want to read this, or wish to visit an off-topic forum, by all means, please do so! I am waiting for Mr. Floyd to explain his comments publicly - right here in the same forum in which he publicly slammed gay people.

>I find it sad that you can't accept the way the majority of young people talk today.

I cannot accept prejudice sitting down, no matter what anyone (even "the majority") says. I'm sorry that saddens you. You should know that just because "the majority" of people say something does not mean it is acceptable. Until surprisingly recently, the ugly term "nigger" was in widespread usage. It took an awful lot of black people to say "ENOUGH!" before that hateful term was banished from public conversation. Because of its power to shape thought, language is one of prejudice's most powerful weapons.

>...bigotry really isn't a good thing for society.

Thank you for the opportunity to conclude our conversation on a note of 100% agreement. Now, if you will excuse me, I am waiting for Mr. Floyd's explanation.
