Sweet Nicole now apologzing to Royalan 

I respect you so much Royalan. I'm sorry for all that has happened, and I hope you're going to be OK, even if you're not ok right now.

I will always remember when you, internally, raised how we can be doing more for these communities, and how we should be handling things going forward. It was a great thing that helped us improve our processes and decision making a lot in the early days.

Thanks for all you've done. If you're ever in Chicago, feel free to hit me up. Drinks are on me.

who TF made that?

Doesn't matter. It's probably the best thing to get out of this drama. Glorious meme. Excelblabla must be on fire right now. 

When you make a meme that even The Bore find borderline, you hit something.

There’s lots of reasons to make fun of Excel. Being trans shouldn’t be one.

When someone use his status, be it trans, gay or anything else, to shield themselves from anything and behave like a dick, I think it's fair-game.

Excelsirlief whole life revolve around reminding people that they're a trans and that grant them some rights to behave like they do. You must hit where it hurts the most.

New borians 

KarpalaJoe is not new. He always been an asshole, though.

"She", thanks. The Brad Pitt avatar was a give away all along.

My attitude is the reason I've been denied to get past the "Junior member" status. Mods don't like me.

[Mr. Nobody]

i'm just glad their crusade for diversity has found success by....removing a black gay man from the moderation team

Disagreed on one aspect of the cause he shared with them so he was cast out like the leper he is 

There's much more to unpack with this move but that involves care posting and I'll be damned if I do for a site I can't and don't want to post on anymore

[Raist]

Surely, Royalan's apology is something not enough something something empty something, right? Right?

[HaughtyFrank]

I'm reminded of the "wrecking bathrooms" analogy. They have little power in real life so they relish using it against the people who actually listen to them, only hurting their interests in the end.

[Pissy F Benny]

Somone did a flashy in the trashy?

"She". Thanks.

Only a kiwifarms loser would think that pretending to be a woman on the internet is the easy street to respect

I’m willing to accept fake pics tho

Do it, man, make the care post. I wanna read it.

I'm tired.

[Hermit]

I'm here to read all care posts

[nachobro]

Being cruel about a trans persons looks is not my scene.

Stick to making fun of white cis males.

it's a classic sitcom, and probably the kindest comparison that mug could get

[HaughtyFrank]

Surely, Royalan's apology is something not enough something something empty something, right? Right?

I'm not calling anyone out, but I feel that the apology rings rather hollow. I appreciate that action is being done, but there's still many lingering questions.

1. Did royalan's acephobia factor into any moderation decisions, such as Xaszatm's thread closure?
2. Is royalan still acephobic?
3. If so, does he have a willingness or desire to address his irrational biases?
4. If not, how have his views evolved?

I don't really feel comfortable that the actual things royalan had said, he hadn't actually acknowledged them. While he no longer has moderator power, he definitely has pull and people who respect him, and I think there's valid concern there still.

though i'm sure incel is a sex creep too so really its a perfect fit. cousin incelki

I‘m willing to accept a gif of a busty thot as a substitute for the promised care post.

That dude is a huge sex creep lol, he (Balki) was on some reality show and groped chicks and was otherwise gross as hell.

Wait really? Link plz

Priorities though. Drama > sleep/work/sex/anime. 

[NinjaDeath]

So where did Royalan post that apology?

It was the Surreal Life.. he was a total creep, here's a blurb I found:

http://www.zimbio.com/Douchiest+90s+Sitcom+Stars/articles/6/Top+5+Douchiest+90s+Sitcom+Stars

Appeared On: Perfect Strangers (1986-1993)
Character: Balki Bartokomous
Douchebag Credentials: Perfect Strangers was primarily a vehicle for Bronson Pinchot to rip off Andy Kaufman's vastly funnier and vastly more interesting Latka Gravas from Taxi. As Balki, there was rarely a scene that Pinchot didn't manage to chew his way through. His life after Perfect Strangers is Douchebaggery 101. Pinchot appeared on the fifth season of VH1's The Surreal Life, where he slowly creeped out every single female cast member by being a pathetic old lech. His groping hug of Janice Dickinson was so over-the-line that she nearly quit the show on the spot, later saying, "I don't like this guy. This guy is a gimp motherfucker." Pinchot, for his part, told the cameras, "I believed in my heart Janice and I will hook up somehow."

 "I believed in my heart Janice and I will hook up somehow."

Their insistence on not having sexual feelings for others and not really bothering anyone is disgusting and makes me want to vomit.

I'm of the mind Royalan is getting thrown out as the sacrificial lamb because his post is the one that's publically available.

That's absolutely what's happening. They did a similar deal when the whole Etika situation reached a head.

People love to bring it up and weaponize the etika situation at every opportunity

stop bringing it up! reeeeeeeeeee!

a lesser, more transphobic man might have started to doubt her asexuality at this point

[BisMarckie]

Also, obviously, transparency is a must. Meta commentary on moderation cannot be a taboo subject anymore, as having it be so is explicitly anti-transparency, especially given how many people have been frustrated by how difficult it can be to get information from moderators in private.

are you sure you want this 

Look where that got us on the Bire, some weirdo is always going to defend even the biggest assholes on the forum.

lol

You know, I don't really give a shit one way or the other about asexuality. I was wondering why that is. I think it is something to do with them not doing something as opposed to doing something. When you think about it, most sexual orientations are defined by your action where as asexuality is defined by your inaction.

Jesus.. cheated on by an asexual.  That's gotta feel like shit.

(I'm probably misconstruing something about asexuals aren't I? )

edit: so not a-romantic?  emotional cheating?

It was emotional cheating, but regardless I was absolutely shocked. At first I thought she fucked the guy, so it was even worse.

I have no problem with someone being asexual, obviously. I would never date one again, though.

Yeah. They need sexual correction therapy. Lock them in a room with three hot models.... wait... I think I'm asexual.

What the feck is going on now, jeez last time I checked the shit thread was like two days ago and now we have a new thread that's already blowing up. Who tried to fuck KetKat in a shower?

Take a break, take a KetKat.

Nah. The trans community on reset are obnoxious arseholes, but that doesn’t make it OK to take a swing at trans people as a whole. Same goes for atheists, feminists, and a few other labels. Don’t let vocally miserable arseholes in one corner of the net skew your perception of entire demographics.

Mind you, I don’t like people mocking Slayven for his spelling so maybe I’m just sensitive. Or tired. So tired.

Edit: fuck things have moved on a lot since this post so now I’ve just left a late care post here. This event is taking a toll on all of us. #FREEROYALAN.

[Raist]

However, it's perfectly fine to take swings at brits as a whole. Cause they're muppets.

Acetone. Reminds me of Accattone, my favorite movie by non-white Italian director Pier Paulo Pasolini.

who the fuck came up with the term "ace" for assexuals

[nachobro]

the same people that decided to rename incels to asexuals

[HaughtyFrank]

who the fuck came up with the term "ace" for assexuals

My guess is that they were sad that "aphobic" translates into "someone without phobias". Like atheism is the opposite of theism

[TVC15]

Them aces man, you gotta watch out for them. You think you know a dude, and then he’s just there sitting across from you not thinking about having sex with you. What’s up with that? I feel threatened and afraid.
