It always amused me how people think that the next morning they join the EU magical EU fairies will fix all that is bad and replace it with all that is good. And also provide free food.
The end is, sadly, the same: "Germany, pay off our debts! You owe us - you invaded us in [insert number] century!"

Sometimes even religious idiots have their use. You can have no more of a cat but her skin. This law will serve its purpose even if proposed by a fundie. He is a useful candidate for a scapegoat - make him a laughing stock for press yet the law have passed. Fundie will suffer the consequences and others could execute the law. It's a win-win situation.
It took me approx three posts for previous topic to be closed by the mods. Telling your opinion when being forbidden to actually express your opinion is a funny experience.

Absolutely and I also think that any forum that is in the public domain should have forum rules and etiquette that is enforced. You can't ask some people to do and say the right thing and assume they do it, that's why in some cases we need Moderators.
You still do not understand - a lot of people on Codex who shocked you with "rude and bigoted Sexist comments and jokes about rape" ARE moderators.
-
There are several people on these forums who I respect immensely who are active members there and I know don't think like that but seriously don't the Moderators on RPGCodex enforce forum rules? Or am I being oversensitive....
you seem to assume "Forum Rules" are something universal.

Even if 100% of fans wanted them, I don't believe we have the time and other resources to implement them well. I am not inherently opposed to romances, but I don't want to spend time implementing something I'm not confident we will be able to execute at a high level of quality.

I'm just confused with this thread. I thought they implemented this forum so the community can interact with each other and the devs and can help to make the game really great. But besides the people who discuss the pro's and con's about having no romances in the game with valid arguments. I really don't get this war between the "promancer" (ehh...what?) and the...other guys(?). It really doesn't benefit the game and the work the devs are doing in any possible way...but congrats to the side which won...

That reminds me: you posted a few Tiger Lillies videos a while back. You obviously don't know much about them if you hate gays.
And I also like Queen and Sopor Aeternus. That surely have a lot to do with my comment about Facebook activism.

To be honest, initially when reading about the law(I think there was more then one) that Russia passed to limit LGBT parades, I was ambivalent about it, first its not the only country with similar laws iirc there few such as this in the USA, but mostly because I am so sick of those parades, which at this point seem like call for attention, seeking universal recognition which no one have.
HOWEVER and that is a huge huge huge however, I remembered that it is Russia we are talking about and not where I grew up, where LGBT kids at school treated far better then any of the "usual suspect" for abuse, who get the blind eye from society.
For those who had similar misconceptions about this issue, in Russia. Here is a nice video on the issue:
When i saw that "join us on Facebook and tell the world you stand with Russia's LGBT community" I laughed so har it still hurts.

I'm mostly amused at using rats' fur for clothes making. It's not a kind of animal that produce a lot of fur.

Clothing being sold as cashmere actually contains rat fur, it appears, as Italian police arrest 14 people and seize more than a million garments.
The Chinese-born suspects were arrested in the Italian cities of Livorno and Rome after a year-long investigation, and have been cautioned for fraud, the Italian news agency ANSA reports.
The clothes claiming to be made of cashmere contained a mixture of acrylic and viscose, as well as "fur from rats and other animals", judicial sources say. Bogus merino wool, silk and pashmina garments were also seized.
Counterfeiting is widespread in China, in domestic and export markets, leading Beijing to step up its efforts to crack down on the practice. Taiwan's Want China Times says fake goods are a "way of life" in many rural areas, with people having "no choice but to accept counterfeit and defective goods".
China's reputation for peddling fake goods may be hurting its legitimate industries elsewhere in the world. According to the Arab News, Saudi consumers may be put off by the "Made in China" label, even on popular brands, because they're worried the goods might be fake.

1) Blaming the immigrants for turning up when it is the construction firms are benefiting from them is ludicrous.
2) As we've already discussed at great length, it is right and proper to criticise Russia for violation of a human right. The homophobic laws persecute people for something they are. Consensual gay sex hurts precisely nobody. Likening it to eating pork is mendacious at best.
1) It is their fault - they violate the law by illegally crossing the border. Anything else is secondary. You are not blaming a shop owner for slippery floors because thief broke his neck in attempted burglary at night.
2) When in Rome, do as Romans do. Eating or not eating pork hurts precisely nobody yet considered as offensive by the majority of population in certain locations. Should some country practice necrophilia and will root for fellow necrophiles I doubt they would enjoy the same support gay community have.

Speaking of Sochi and arse:
Humans Rights Watch alerts us that the transformation of Sochi from a small resort town to international Olympic host has been made possible by more than 70,000 workers, including tens of thousands of migrant workers from outside of Russia. Many of these migrant workers face exploitation – with employers failing to pay their wages, confiscating workers’ passports, and forcing them to toil up to 12 hours a day with only one day off each month – all in violation of Russian law.
It's a sad state of affairs. As much as I love watching the winter Olympics, it will be tough this time.
I see no reason to treat illegal immigrants differently. They are criminals and have no rights at all, ergo - such treatment could be seen as a fitting punishment.
the unacceptable rise and legislation of homophobia
Should Olympics be hosted in Jerusalem or Mecca, would you demand that people should demonstratively eat pork to support food equality? Would you bring pet pigs with you to protest against animal descrimination?

From what Google translate helped me to understand - peaceful and democratic people, simply wishing to improve situation with human rights and freedom in their country, captured a riot police officer and peacefully tore out his eye, then peacefully dropped him nearby to die. Well, I suppose it's a nice start.
