I'm not too big on shit talking anyone, unless they really have it coming. I'm still not going to say anything about this character yet, but he seems a bit hot headed. What are your thoughts on this wonderful character?

PS, I made a new thread so I could keep out of his. Would not want to go off topic in his own "domain." There was purpose for me creating this, leave it open for now, please.

Since the other thread got closed I'll say this here...yeah he should have PMed a mod, but that sig can be very offensive to people and he never once belittled anyone cause they were an Athiest he was saying that it offended him and he asked that the person remove it (Also isn't there a rule about offensive content in sigs? I'll have to check on that)

Then people ripped into him caliming he was putting everyone down because he thinks he's better since he's a Christian? In what post did you get that from? I didn't read the original thread because I could care less about wrestling but in what posted I saw nothing that even implied what everyone said. Even more surprised that Jedi sided with everyone else.

And to what Tool said in the thread:
Quote: Here's a lovely song by A Perfect Circle that you can ***** about. I'm sure Maynard would love to know that someone was touched by his lyrics. Wink


First off, the song is about his mother dying and the people whom walked in saying, "Her faith is so strong even as she's dying" then walked out saying, "I never liked her..." It was written though also in the style of a reference to a story in the Bible. Maynard said himself Judith was not meant to be an anti-Christianity song. Also recently an article on TooldBand.com has said...and I quote, "Maynard found Jesus"


My point with this post is Silent did nothing that you're all accusing him of, that I can see atleast. And you're all just anxious to ***** him out and ban him. Hmm...and people wonder why alot of people take long absences from this place...

Do a postsearch of his. I don't have a beef with him in the least, but all he does is constantly make asshole-ish posts.

Quote:No offensive content. This includes, but is not limited to :




  • Gore and excessive violence (both photographic and animated) including 'stick death' and violent Flash animations
  • Pornography and strongly sexually suggestive material (both photographic and animated)
  • Racist and hate speech material
  • Other material generally considered rude, vulgar or crass (including bodily functions)

Thats the rule. I don't get what's his problem. He made 2 sigs about pot yet he's offended by jesus on a crusifix and someone calling him a noob.
#5
i say theres no problem with religion bashing sigs, i really dont find them offensive, and forcing people to change them is known as fascism... sort of like what Hitler did.
#6
No what Hitler did was persecute people for being a part of a religion...asking someone to remove offensive content is called making a simple request. It's like someone finding the word *** offensive when used at any time. You don't see the word as offensive unless like calling someone an *** or something of that sort right? Well to them it is offensive...in that sig it was something mocking his religion and he took offense to it. I personally was not offended by it but can see how he was. And also what does Marijuana have to do with religion? I don't remember the Bible saying smoking pot was a sin.

well you got a pt spoon, but i really dont find jesus on the cross very offensive, and people laughing at him, thats pretty much what the crowd did when he was being crucified. theres not really any hate speech against him, other then noob, and i doubt that could be considered racist material. also its not really gory, or even remotley violent. but it could be considered rude by some christians, however, i fail to see any reason why.
#8
I'm an Aethesit and I didn't mind the sig, but I can see how some one of faith would take offense to it. I mean come on how would you like it if some one you worshipped and who had died for you, was mocked? Christians honestly believe that he died for them.

It'd be almost like some one saving a bunch of kids from a burning building, but the person died in the process and now he is mocked for being an imbecile. That really is what you mean when you say Noob.
Even though I'm not offended I am very dissapointed that you all seem so "gung ho" to do something about this guy when he really hasn't done anything, but make some childish remarks.
#9
I find it surprising that I'm the one who got everyone on Silent...yet I'm really the only one that he actually attacked directly in a flame without being provoked and I'm one of the few defending him.

Just so you know, the whole Maynard finding Christ was a big April Fools' Joke between all the major Tool fan sites. Wink

And I never said it was about being anti-Jesus. I said that I'll let him decide what it's supposed to mean. And the only reason you don't see the way he is acting is because you don't want to. Stop being so close-minded.
#11
Well considering the Maynard finding Jesus thing was posted before April Fools...it's a hard one to pick up on. But since they haven't posted an "April Fools!" or something along those lines I'm still wondering.

And even if he acts childish that's not really a good reason to ban him. And being close minded really doesn't stop you from seeing how somebody acts. Close minded would be not accepting someone for their religion or sexuality...something more around there.

He can be an annoyance, like anyone else on these forums, but for the most part I could care less. Just another string on pixels on the screen is all.

That Jesus signature was hilarious. I was wondering why it was gone.

I have recently seen the posts about it. Though on Toolband.com where I heard the news it took 7 days for them to post that it was a prank.

How did this turn into a conversation about the band Tool and how their singer "found Jesus"?

Anyways. Just leave Silent alone. He wasn't causing problems until some of you started harassing him. If you have any complaints, PM me and I'll speak to him.

Ok...I didn't mean to offend athiest people i'm just christian and we believe diffrent things. so what It dosen't make me mad and I don't try to force my religion on to others. I woulden't make a anti-athiest sig or pic and show everyone though. I found his sig offensive I didn't find his beliefs offensive. I don't know why your trying to bash me for smokeing pot because you and tool both sound like rockheads. It's like you hit up a rock before you started bashing and flameing me or even posting in general. >_>
I'm srry I can't just ignore people. I apoligize to the mods that have to waist there time on such bullshit. Also, Jedi WTF is up with you. How about slackin up on me I never see ur posts intill there against me or flaming me. -_- All and all problem solved.

Also thx spoon for comeing to my defense and anubis I want to see more flameing outa you. lol

Well, thank what ever deity you worship that some one finally caught on to this.
#19
My opinion is: You find a sig offensive, don't look at it, and really, don't be an uptight jerk about it. It was meant to be humorous, and that was ruined by all this bullshit.
#20
i'm srry i ruined your life's treasure. I believe this thread could be closed now, I believe if I would have made it I woulden't of had to ask.
