Gorillas avatar offends me. - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

S4toSTI · 06-08-2006, 12:43 AM

I have a friend that used to do coke and it strongly offends me. The fact that something like that is allowed on this site reflects so negatively on this site and the people who run it i don't even wanna be a member. I think that things like this will turn people away. I don't understand how cursing can be against the rules, but drug use can be used as a joke. Take this seriously or not but that is the way i feel.

do you think posting a thread publicly in off topic is the proper way to go about this?

HatchSurfer3 · 06-08-2006, 02:53 AM

wow, if u honestly truly were offended by that, then i think u would've pm'ed him and asked him politely to take it down. And if he didn't then maybe go to a moderator. What is the purpose of this thread? I had someone that was like a brother to me almost die and ruin many people lives, including my own, because of drugs. But i don't have to publicly whine about it. Seriously i mean no offense, but ur acting extremely childish about this whole thing.

This thread only brings more attention to his avatar and possible scrutiny. Also, sorry about your lost bra.

This isn't the first time someone's gotten upset over an avatar, so you should rethink your insult.

Life is too short to be offended by trivial things.

Develop a thicker skin and remember that the entire world doesn't revolve around you and you'll live longer due to a much reduced stress level.

BlackBulletTSi · 06-08-2006, 08:37 AM

no that avatar was just down right wrong. I honestly think a few people were offended by it and just didn't say nothing.

and I have a family member that is currently struggling with heroin addiction, It didn't bother me. I'm sure it wasn't meant to come acrossed the way you interpreted it.

poolmike · 06-08-2006, 08:47 AM

I found it to be disappointing.

hummerman88 · 06-08-2006, 08:47 AM

But here's what you have to remember, it's AN AVATAR. It has NO impact whatsoever on anyones life on this board. Period.

If you get offended over things like avatars, pictures or stories posted on the internet in general, or other such trivial items, you should just toss the computer in the trash. It'll save you loads of heartache and hurt feelings.

Scapegoat · 06-08-2006, 09:44 AM

I'm offended by your lack of mammary glands
