[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 8538218, member: 6795602"] Obviously I'm not a mod and also just read the thread. IMO. Most slights weren't modded at all (no issue for me as some things can be a bit disrespectful without crossing the line). Most of the mod action I saw there was about fairly significant insults. I think the topic was treated more sensitively than a typical topic which I think is what you are noticing, but not really any more sensitively than certain other topics get treated. I agree in principle that some topics need treated more respectfully than the typical topic - even if I sometimes disagree on where the lines get drawn or what should specifically count as respectful. A few comments in that thread said things like "...because of the documented "relationships" the adult soldier had with his underage trainee/squire/name I can't remember. Not to make light of it, but it would be a class that fits some Catholic priests or the members of NAMBLA." and "It's based on a well known fictional franchise?" - Fictional Franchise here being a reference to peoples sincerely held religious beliefs in the church/bible. It was primarily these kinds of comments that were modded. (Not actually quoted as intention is to provide examples while minimizing calling out the individuals). [/QUOTE]
