I recently posted a joke that made comment on mexicans i have no problems with mexicans it was just a joke and the forman clearly states anything goes in my opion they had no right to remove my post even if it was racist which it was not. What do you think?
They were right to remove the joke. It was racist and rude (not to mention the terrible grammar and spelling made it even worse) for any mexicans, any people with mexicans in their families... well, pretty much everyone in general.
YOU may not be racist, but the joke was, and shouldn't have been posted.
Sorry you got your post removed, but try and find a more tasteful joke next time.

No its a funny joke and i live in a town with mostly mexicans and most my friends are and i tell it to them all the time and they dont care they laugh and think it funny. As for the bad grammar read my sig.
You may think it's funny, and they might too, and that's fine. But it IS a racist joke, no matter how many people laugh, and has no place on this forum.
I don't understand how your bad spelling and grammar are justified by your signature, but that doesn't really matter... so long as your posts and legible :P

telling it to friends is one thing but telling it to a thousand people you have never met before is another.

OK, i guess i was wrong but they still should not have removed the post without a complaint from somone how do they know ppl didt think it was funny and my sig states hookt on fonix reely workt 4 me that clearly states why i have bad grammar inless you are to stupoid to get it.
No need to insult me...
So your signature means that hooked on phonics made you have bad grammar? ... doesnt really matter, but if it's so obvious then i'd like to know what im missing

trust me if they wouldnt have deleted it as soon as they did you would have got alot of people complaining about the post.
so you might as well not worry about the stupid joke anymore and get over it.

thought the joke was funny even though ive never seen a mexican :)
these are JUST jokes and btw every nations has its own smell and because its different everyone think it stinks and i actually find jokes about quebecois funny even tho I AM ONE ... this racist thing are going really too far people are so afraid to be racist
lol How do you know I didn't complain???????????
I didn't care for the joke. Would you like to try now to make it up to us by telling us a bit more about yourself? Like what animals you have or like, or would like to have....or perhaps a bit about your locale?
Bj ;)
Before you went and posted a poll about your thread being taken down, you should have read the TOS (http://www.ssnakess.com/tos.htm) Like i asked you to in the PM i sent you.
As for there not being a complaint, who said that there wasnt??? I did infact receive a complaint about your thread, that is how i saw it.

even if no one gets offended, it is still racist and evey time that you get away with doing something bad, you just want to tak advantage of it and you end up doing more and more bad things and soon you might really start offending people. Just don't argue and don't do it again.

you are all so funny i know the joke might not be appropriate for the site but damn people you need to cool down a lill as for the ones who were offended well you will be offended all your life :)
sry
mk... many of us are not saying we're offended by the joke, just that it had no place on this forum. If I said "All blacks are no-good criminals" or "women's only use to cook" (which is completely false), how do you think that would go over?
And people have a right to get offended... it's really not up to you to tell people what they will be offended by and won't. And it's not like this was just a little passing comment, it was a derogatory joke aimed at mexicans.
Anyway, I think the joke was removed for good reason, even if it is considered funny by some :]

Our moderators do there best to weed through the scramble of posts and remove them as they see fit. No post is deleted, they are moved to a bad threads forum which is only accessible to the moderation team, they are then dealt with as we see fit. Some may have found it funny, others would have got offended. So regardless of how people feel that your post was removed, it WAS removed for reasons within the TOS. Try not to get offended if your post(s) get removed, they are just doing there job. Heck they have even removed a few of mine and i own the site... LOL! :P

zoe you are really taking this too damn far anyway i wont argue cause this is just funny
:)
Zoe is right I won't let a woman in my kitchen at all LoL Hey Mk-ultra Zoe is being passionate about something she believes in and that shows in what she posts.So How can you decide what is too damn far? or not far enough? or funny or racist?I never got to see the Joke but I am glad I did not. If it is gone it would have been offensive to many folks not just people of mexican Background.Hail to the mods for keeping it real and clean for us.
this racist thing are going really too far people are so afraid to be racist
Adolf Hitler was not afraid to be a racist
Josef Stalin was a Proud racist who bragged about his racist beliefs.
One certan some one who Has just been deposed was not afraid to be a racist.
That Bunch killed about 20 million people combined.So yeah I am scared for real and wating for the next one Will It be you?
Hip
Is it only 20 million? Hitler killed 14 million - 6 million of which were jews.
I read the Odessa File :P
Well I was speaking about the people that lost thier lives to pure racist belief's (yes there were a lot more in the Stalin Hitler period)Many of those were only war related and not purely out of racism.Even still one was far too many Such a lesson taught so long ago and some of us still have never learned.

by saying afraid to be racist i dont mean afraid to show they are really racist but afraid to be pointed as a racist and please dont start with the hitler stuff this is way out of the subject
look at how much fuss there has been for a lill joke and tell me what is wrong please do so i just think that the kind of replys this poor dude is getting is way too much
"tell me what is wrong please do so" If you do not already know, All the people in the world could tell you and you still would not know
"please dont start with the hitler stuff this is way out of the subject"
Well racisim is racisim does not matter what names I use or what time period It comes from.You can post your views So I can't post mine?
Well you found the joke funny That speaks for it's self!!!!!!

To mk-ultra and anyone else who thinks that joke should have stayed up on our forums....
Please understand, that the joke in question is not suitable in these forums. it is against the TOS, and was deleted just like any other post that breaks ssnakess.com terms.
The fact that some people might have NOT felt it was offensive is not ssnakess.com's problem and we will continue to delete any threads like these that we feel should not be shown on our forums.
Like hip said, if you cannot understand why that post shouldn't stay up, then you probably never will. You can have your own opinion on a matter, but dont continue to post and drag this thread on, when its very clear why it has been removed. You surf these forums for yourself, the moderators have to surf these forums for EVERYBODY, all the time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to make sure everybody enjoys our site without having to come on and read racist, sexist, degrating, posts, etc....
So in the future, if you feel like discussing an issue of why we have deleted a thread, take it up with us personnaly, rather then waste everyones time and space.
Please PM me personally, if you are still confused.
I would be happy to go over it again with you.
Thanks,
Grant
