I will like all those who have realised who the real mod making all the right decisions and helping the userbase is to come forth and agree; it is Virtuoso.

They say you can insult and callout mods unlike with other users so I am fucking doing it.
It is time this happened immediately, bsh1 just unbanned the worst troll of this site; Type1 AKA Sparrow. He unbanned him to give him a chance to explain what cannot and should not be explained; death threats and worse in a final rap to say bye to us.
It is unacceptable that he will be so lenient to someone like that and so strict to some other users as he pleases.

Either you're saying it's pathetic and humiliating that the clitoris is so sensitive and that women should be ashamed of it, or you're saying straight people should be proud of their sensitivity and happy about it.

And what are you sexually, (gay, straight or what)? How are you feeling this month?

Pride month is due to gay people's sensitivity. That's an idiotic joke to make.

League of Legends. Main the Toplane role, I think it will suit you best.
Set the settings low, turn of the game music etc, you'll easily tweak it and stuff in time.

Loki is gay? In what lore?

When you say 'let it happen' I think everyone in the world 'let it happen' if you define that in the default way.

LOL She what? don't you mean Bush did that? Her husband led the only example in American history of a war where America surrendered and minimised casualties.

Go ahead, prove what you're saying. After you prove it, I'll go into how Bush's Sec of State and Kennedy's were far worse than HC.

You're confirming that to troll me and avoid losing Rating. You're a fucking banned user anyway.

No you don't you even admitted you had it on the default setting when you said you're welcome to me. Is the admin going to deny to changing it too?

I agreed to it being moderated you can't go in and change it against my will and force me to have to put the effort into debating it.

@DebateArt.com
That debate doesn't meet the criteria of the agreed upon troll debate criterion. I agreed to a non troll debate on neutering Sparrow. He could have made a strong pro-trans operation case but put zero effort in. I won it and deserve my rating and moderation of the debate votes.

She literally led the assassination on Osama Bin Laden in like 1/3 of the time that it took Bush's Sec of State to continually try and fail to get the guy. For 6 years they began to be aware of and search for Bin Laden, yet she does it like that. There's so much to her you miss because you mistake her ruthless side for evil.
Hillary always has humanity at heart, even when she dealt with shell corporations. You don't understand her ethos because you as a person are a 'this or that' type. You don't see the grey area, you don't think it exists.

I have both sides of her in my own views too. I would say she is the closest politician to me in general views but her means and sort of overall agenda are a bit different.
You could say she is more passive, where I'd be more aggressive but honestly that difference in temperament is why she's the better politician than me, hands down. I couldn't handle all the abuse in the media and from Internet trolls like you that she gets. I'd snap and lose my temper at some point, cry myself to sleep etc. Her patience and passivity are precisely why she's superior to me at politics and why I'd be a more 'get things done' type than her in efficiency and stuff.
Her and I are very similar otherwise. Temperament aside, I feel very in tune with her on almost all matters that she's had a view on.

This update is 5 days old approximately and was never logged in the changelog:
Created:
Recently, without asking us if we wanted it or not, debates have a new option. The defaults as is are 2 Rounds, 10k characters and 'moderated'. The latter was already the norm just not an option, the first 2 have been changed from the old defaults.
Three debates I accepted as 'moderated' would have costed me Elo/rating or gained me elo/rating. Now, because Mike the admin has behind my back gone and not only done this update but post-acceptance changed the debates to be unmoderated on a whim and his personal judgement, I can't gain elo from the debates or lose it.

I would happily agree to the first line's ending. There's very little about Trump that isn't vile, after all.
I understand that just like you hate Dax, you hate Hillary because someone you like told you what to say about her. Instead of saying 'she is X' say the proof of 'she is X' please. Explain the views she went back on.
Would you like to explore the gay marriage one, for instance?

Precisely the opposite, it is the pinnacle of ingenious anti-ignorant awareness of what you support that enables me to ascertain that you're a Stalinist in denial.

@Dr.Franklin
I'm a left-wing-leaning 'centrist' progressive and I don't support Islam as an ideology.
The key is making it matter more that the community is in harmony than worrying if I agree with their ideology or not. So, in other words, even if your true ideology disgusts me, I'm willing to ignore the holy book and the horrors written in it if you're willing to do the same and cherry pick the nice parts. This is why I don't mind Muslims, but I do mind Islam in its pure form.
You cannot deny that there are severely homophobic, women-abusing and violence-inciting lines in the Qur'an it even has a line that literally says to not think of those slain in the name of Allah as dead, they just 'appear that way'. I mean, if that line isn't the definition of what lunatic terrorists use to justify their actions then I'm not sure what is, it's definitely a deal-closer if nothing else, since if you aren't going to be killing anyone in Allah's eyes, you're not even a violent person in their reality.
Not all Muslims believe in that, in fact I would say most Muslims only agree with around 20% of the Qur'an. This is shocking but true, I have actually talked with real Muslims and gone into specifics and found they either get furious with you asking or calmly admit just how little of the Qur'an is actually not brutally unreasonable and/or unjust to believe and think.
If you're born into a Muslim family or whatever, maybe you're adopted by one, and they peer pressure you to identify as Muslim but you're a decent human being who never is led astray from core morals and societal harmony, then I don't see the issue with you 'following' that religion. The issue is what exactly the religion is. If it's the teachings, then we need to end it. On the other hand, if the religion is the people who follow it, we merely need to convince them to ignore the horrific and/or stupid parts of what they're preached to and taught.

@Swagnarok
Your second reply is a good point. I don't, however, buy into the idea that gays weren't actively oppressed for millennia. Humans were animals that reproduce sexually and thus there was a need to peer pressure against it originally but the oppression far outlived its necessity in our species' development.

Patience is waiting for the next bus.
Preparedness is either making it to the bus early or already positioning myself ready for the next-best travel route and means assuming I'd miss the bus even if I could have made it on time.
Wisdom is ringing up my friend, explaining that I just missed my bus and getting a ride for free or at a very low cost in exchange for being a great ally.

What most of us got annoyed by was you asking us to have rainbow pictures or gay-themed images for a whole month. We're not all gay here, we have 'pride' in our heterosexuality etc.

If you really want to fight oppression, stop pretending Sharia law and Islamic regimes of most kinds, as well as Christian-based nations like Uganda and Russia and most religious states, are okay. Seek to make the world more Pagan and/or atheist and celebrate that it is stopping to be idiotically regimented and with brutal morality that oppresses and enslaves.
Once you start speaking against vile ideologies, I'll start to consider you a true 'gay warrior who is fighting oppression'.
Debate against it, prove them wrong.
Being gay isn't something you earned, you didn't achieve your homosexuality. What have you done to alleviate oppression?

No, you're the one strawmanning and who is ignorant. Mod or not, you're not entitled to be proud of who gets your cock hard or heart fluttering. That's your taste and I have mine and so does everyone else. It's nothing to be proud or ashamed of, you are what you are. You didn't earn your sexuality, it isn't an achievement.

Virtuoso doesn't suit any rapper personality, neither does OBiR. Omar suits the song I chose better than any rap.

The song is not the artist. The song is the representation, in other words a dark song by a great artist is no less dark for the purpose of this thread. Same goes for Dax.

You were right to select Dax for me but that rap was terrible in flow and substance, despite the theme being me-esque to a decent degree.

Do you know how Alan Turing's life became and ended the moment he admitted what his sexuality was?
How about Van Gogh? I bet you didn't even know he was an avid homosexual. How about Mozart?
The point is they were all celebrated as non-gays and it slipped out later based on word of mouth or caught love letters coming out later on.
