So some of you might or might not have seen the topic "FOR GALS ONLY!!!" but I have a few things to comment about that.
1. There were accusations of this being a male ran company and site. To this I say correct. The three (well four if you count Shylock) who set all of this up were in fact male. But the post continued to accuse the owners of the site saying "AND the fact the these males are simply out to get us in their own anit-feminist ways ... and somehow prove their better". I find this to be completely unfounded and without warrant. First off the forums were created as a way for anyone who is connected with The Power Trio to communicate with each other or ourselves. It was thought to be a fun place to where people can go and just talk about whatever or find info on the Power trio and their work. There has never been some underlying message that we have been trying to push. This is not to say we don't express our opinions but we have separate topics for our opinions and not base the entire forums on one feeling or idea such as Anti-feminism. On a personal note, I would love to see all the numerous anti-feminist remarks and ideas because from what I can remember, one of our favorite and most prolific members is mslottielenya.
2. I congrats the originator for having the ambition to start their own topic that they felt strongly about. Though I must agree with Harry in that the topic would suggest Gender discrimination. As pointless and time consuming as the sign up terms of service seem to be, they are there for a reason. This particular segment was referring to gender discrimination. You seem to think that this is a stupid and pointless rule but that would mean that you are fighting there vary thing you are supposedly fighting for. If you are telling Harry that he needs to do better than preventing racial, religious, or GENDER, discrimination, I would love to hear what you have too say. Though it would seem your idea of better is to start a "For GALS ONLY!!!" topic and make unfounded accusations against the people who are bringing you the forums.
3. This line, "then who would u have to make urself look goood?" also implies that we have made these forums in order to make ourselves look good or that we pick fights in order too make ourselves look good. I don't know what you think makes someone look good but in my opinion, fighting on online forums hardly constitutes a good image. If anything it makes us look like petty whiners with too much time on our hands.We have not made this so that we can attack anyone or any idea just too make ourselves look good. As stated before the forums are here for fun and information.
4. You wanted to bring personal issues into this. Fine. Your right, I didn't say Happy birthday to Harry because I mixed updates. But you know what, it doesn't matter because our friendship runs much deeper and thicker them some petty words that are recycled too the point of uselessness because everybody who knows it's your birthday will say it whether it is a close friend or stranger. He knows I love him and would not intentionally diss him. Mistakes our made and I apologize for them. Your right again when you are referring to me not saying Happy Birthday too you. The reason I didn't say Happy birthday too you is because you didn't pick up the phone. If you don't believe me look this picture. Notice the name and date of the call. I colored over the numbers for obvious reasons but I have the one without if you don't believe me.[a href="
