Snapeslash... -.-;;;;

[silversolitaire]

I'm currently trying to stop a flamewar at Snapeslash. Some idiot posted a really offensive rant on what a sucker Jesus is and how all Christians are stupid and suck. I didn't get most of what she said, to be honest. At any rate, a ML isn't a place for such a totally unrelated and uncalled rant, so I put my foot down on it immediately to prevent worse.

I don't care if people think I'm being triggerhappy, but I just don't see why offensive religious debates should be taken to Snapeslash. Period. I don't give my opinion on that either. People are free to express their opinion, but they don't need a whole message just for that purpose that only has the purpose to offend people. And of course people ignore my ADMIN and just keep posting, apologizing at the end of the message "Sorry, but I just needed to add that." Well, my sweet, everybody needs to add something. That's what a flamewar is about and that's why I closed the thread.

Gonna watch it a bit more and then I'll start threatening with moderation if they don't stop. Religious debates really are among the most sensitive things you could do on a ML. I don't like them at all.

Jen, if you're reading this, I hope you're okay with my mod-job. But I do feel rather strongly about it, so I wanted it to stop right there and then.

Good for you! I, for one, think that's the right thing to do. Why would they do that on a snape list, anyway? :Shakes head:
