I received a warning for using the word gay in a negative context in rep. This was for when I said that a post was not gay enough. Can I get this stricken from the record as I was clearly putting the gays on a pedestal and in no way insulting them?
1. You used the word as a part of an insult. That's a negative context. Telling someone their post is "not gay enough" is prejudiced. It had nothing to do with putting a lifestyle choice on a pedestal, you were insulting a poster's opinion and used a prejudiced remark to do so.
2. It's a warning and cannot lead to a banning.
Negative rep is allowed, which clearly means letting someone know that you do not think that their post is up to par is allowed. What I thought your post needed to make it better was some subtle homosexual undertones. I never insulted you I just stated what I thought would improve your specific post.
And did you call being gay a choice? That is actually prejudice.
2. A warning can lead to a banning. Enough warnings gets you infractions, enough infractions gets you a ban. You didn't need to show how little you understand how things work though, I wasn't speaking about the potential of being banned, I just don't want an unjustified blemish on my perfect record.
1. Warnings do nothing. We can give you 3, 4, 25, they still do nothing but look pretty in the CP.
2. Stop being a smart ass. The word is not in a proper context and that's all that needs to be said.
The rules:1. Between a poster with a clean record and one with warnings, who are you more likely to be lenient and or understanding with? Obviously the one without, because whether the other poster's warnings were just or not, they are the one to appear to have been less troublesome. They do something or else they wouldn't exist.
Positive or negative, it's a prejudiced remark. Would you like the ban instead?D. Prejudiced Remarks: Racial, sexual or any other kind of prejudiced remarks in ANY forum may result in an automatic ban.
2. The word was absolutely in proper context, it is the beholder's comprehension that appears to be off.
You've been given lenience. Now stop pressing the issue.C. Stirring up Drama: Dont do it. If there is some aspect about the WrestleZone Forums that you do not like, rationally make your case and discuss it in a mature fashion. Do not be immature and cause a massive fuss, as it will only work against you and may result in an Infraction.
D. Pissing off Staff: We will not put up with it. If you are being persistently and intentionally annoying to a Staff member, the Staff member has every right to infract or ban you. Do not be afraid to discuss and debate Staff members; just do not Troll a Staff member.

I have a couple of infractions for spamming that I'd like to get rid of. Can I?
Those are warnings. The admins only reverse infractions.
Any chance of been able to tell me why I no longer have permission to post on the comments section on the main site?
