     Offensive comment  

I find this comment extremely sexist and a personal insult to Philippa Boyens. Would appreciate an Admin review and decision, please:

     It is a typical comment [In reply to]  

by that particular user.Most of his posts concern direct or indirect insults towards Boyens(mainly) and Jackson.

     Agreed. [In reply to]  

Some signatures by some posters should be checked as well though. In this thread, for example Unsure

"I am afraid it is only too likely to be true what you say about the critics and the public. I am dreading the publication for it will be impossible not to mind what is said. I have exposed my heart to be shot at." J.R.R. Tolkien

We all have our hearts and minds one way or another invested in these books and movies. So we all mind and should show the necessary respect.

     It must feel as a constant aggravation to some, though. [In reply to]  

Anyway, it is for the mods to decide. And they are okay with it, I guess, since you had it for quite some time.

     offending people in general is okay? [In reply to]  

I mean, I notice you aren't saying it's not 'offensive'.

Only that since it's not aimed at any one person in particular it's okay to offend?

Or something?

Why do I try to work out the reasoning of internet behavior?

     Please,have the courtesy to respond [In reply to]  

directly to me and not with that way: "some signatures by some posters",especially when an attempt to reprimand me(i count 5 times in the last 3 months so far and i haven't replied to you) is more than obvious.

     This would be exactly what you do with your signature. Just not as offensive. [In reply to]  

 But I did not respond to you directly because I do not want to discuss it with you.

I simply want the mods to look into it.

That's what this sub-board is for. Not personal back-and-forths.
