Re: Complaint and need a explaination

yes every word has different meanings, the one i posted was the first one.
How do you know i am not deeply offended by this racial insult?

I can be offended by it or I cant be, does not matter much because it is what it is, a personal insult.

Does the ombudsman even know about this yet?

Re: Complaint and need a explaination

Sorry i was busy finishing essays yesterday and have been coming home today.

Both this and the other topic breach a broader topic than their basic one. This question of the urban dictionary needs to be answered.

Re: Complaint and need a explaination

Well, the obvious answer to this question is simple.
"yes, Urban Dictionary is a proper source"

reason? Because we live in a urban society. we cant ignore the current slangs being used currently.
you guys give out warnings for a word which was considered an insult in the 19th century, but you don't ban another word that is considered in the 21th century?

what sort of logic is it?

i actually had no idea there was another thread about this, i only posted over here because i truly feel i am personally insulted. and justice must come.

That's a bit demeaning isn't it coming from a forum admin? Jim is only trying to do his job.

What is going on? Are you and Deni trying to do a tag team jack-ass act? Demeaning fellow staff members publically, insulting users... sheesh.

Re: Complaint and need a explaination

Oh isn't that wonderful?

KnowLedge wrote:so I reported to mods about a post that was made. This post used the word " E-Thug " to describe me.


now here is the definition of the word E-Thug
1. e-thug
Electronic thug. A pale, pimple faced, skinny white kid who would most likely burn up if he came into contact with natural sunlight. Spends all of his time threatening people over the internet to compensate for his lack of a life and hatred of humanity for not accepting him.


I take the "pale, pimple faced, skinny white kid" as a personal insult. This is also something racial. It is a racial stereotype.

Dani says "no action will be taken, go talk to a ombudsman" without an explanation. and so i am here.
[/spoiler]
Did you conveniently forgot to mention that prior to this (just noticed this complaint randomly by seeing new posts) you said that

LMAO you are so stupid

you are saying the younger the religion, the more violent it is?

that is the most stupidest thing ive ever heard
no you stupid **Filtered**,

And you expected I would be nice? :lol:
This controversial thread was going on very politely and you come starting to be rude and throw swearing in the debate and then complain of the backfire? Hillarious.

I didn't whine about those posts, i could legimately have done so, as much as you did. Because let's face it...you started it by being rude. So don't play the victim.
If I did say rude boy you could have complained I compared you to this jamaican vibe of young gangsters called "rude boys" so take your responsabilities for your name calling.


deni wrote:Subject: Why?

Your report was closed with no further action taken.

E-Thug is a common term used on the internet, describing a person that is bullying others on internet forums, message boards etc.

It is not a derogatory term per se and can be compared to other terms like noob etc.

That's the meaning I meant. Don't know where the hell he got his definition, but well..not all of us base our Knowledge on urbandictionary definitions (meaning by this, words we use are in the sense this site provides)

I can be offended by it or I cant be, does not matter much because it is what it is, a personal insult.

Pot calling the kettle black (considering you started acting rude which cause me to call you an ethug for the sense provided by deni and psi)
And racial insult? Oh come on that's boring "omg you are racist you did racial insult". :lol:

Re: Complaint and need a explaination

doesnt matter what i did. Its a personal insult and u need a warning.

what do the mods and the ombudsman say is what i want to know.

define this as not a personal insult and u wont get ur warning. Till then, it is a personal insult because of the definition i gave that most of the people follow.

'trying' being the operative word there. Earendil informs him that what Jim believes is his job, is not his job. Who else but a forum admin would tell him that? :roll:

Do you even believe what you say? I REALLY hope you don't. ](*,)
You also need a warning then if such word deserves one. :roll:

Stop whinning about so called personal insult and act all offended AFTER having name called me, this is the definition I used:

That's totally appropriate to your behaviour, so stop trying to cover your back, you started it and you are the only one guilty here! Just because it's convenient to use urban dictionary to accuse someone of having insulted, doesn't mean that all of us base ourselves on it for words we use. I have better standards to find my words than this "dictionary". #-o

Don't insult me again by insinuating that words I use(d) have the sense that urban dictionary gives. Thank you. :)

Re: Complaint and need a explaination

I'm reopening this thread at KnowLedge's request.

My apologies to all involved for not attending to it sooner - I honestly thought it had been resolved, probably because it was locked.

Re: Complaint and need a explaination

The main definition of thug is : an aggressive and violent young criminal (not sure why they have to be young)

Therefore an e-thug would be the same definition except it occurs on the internet.

Also...
Electronic thug. A pale, pimple faced, skinny white kid who would most likely burn up if he came into contact with natural sunlight.
The problem with that definition is the "skinny white kid". Who decided they had to be white?

Knowledge, are you saying that if you were a pimple faced, skinny black or asian kid that you would not be offended by the term e-Thug, because the definition is different?
