Head Office if two of your three members are in the band i dont care if you call it box car racer its still blink-182 03-27-2024, 12:10 PMscudmuffin19 Wrote: If GMs dont want that then it should fall on them to ask those questions in scouting. How long before the IP thread starts asking if users are right-wing or left-wing? Or what their race/ethinicity is? How far does the rabbit hole go before you've gone too far? In no land of logic and reasoning would those ever get approved. Equating what's being asked from thoughts on a fictional pride night jersey to questions about race and creed is comparing apples to oranges. | PTS: 7 | BLK: 45 | +/-: 6 | PTS: 4 | BLK: 10 | +/-: 0

Do what you want and ask what you want when scouting. That's your time to ask questions to identify if the player is the perfect LR fit for your team. The league's job with this survey should stop just before that.

We, as a community, have a responsibility to keep this place safe for everyone. Those who hold bigoted beliefs, by definition, are going to make this space less safe for everyone. If you feel like you need to hide your true opinions because the league wouldn't tolerate you, perhaps you should take time to reevaluate your opinions.

Commissioner first site "billionaire" https://simulationhockey.com/gcalendar.php 03-27-2024, 11:59 AMscudmuffin19 Wrote: what happens when a prospect answers no to a specific question? from recent experience it sends half the league into a shitstorm about the issue and puts the user on 3/4 of the J team's DND list. Also, this IP thread should just be a general survey of player goals, etc. not a bunch of "do you believe in pride night" questions that I know alot of y'all will crucify someone for answer "no". Why intentionally set a user up for league-wide bullying like that if not for you and your co-commissioners enjoyment in the HO servers. When they answer no? Outwardly? Nothing. The last issue that occurred had nothing to do with the interested prospect thread, but the topic you are bringing up instead. There are a number of things a person can say that would put them on my DND list (if I was a GM). Being able to handle yourself when asked a question shouldn't be that difficult. If you are put on a DND list for 3/4 of the teams, you are still eligible for 1/4 of the remaining teams.

Someone who would ask that to exclude a person based on their ethnicity is entirely different of not wanting to allow homophobic people in your spaces. If you can't see that, I don't think anything can come out of this discussion and I suggest you read the thing Rankle posted about the paradox of tolerance

SMJHL GM cut back down to my knees, gotta get back, gotta get free, cut back to my knees, lean back now, lean back and breathe
@scudmuffin19 I get a sense that you are highlighting contrarian views simply to go against the bloc and consensus. While absolutism isn’t something that should always be a permanent state, I don’t believe this is really the great example you are thinking that it is when trying to highlight a weakness in the bloc or anything akin to that.
