BAN HIM FOR NOT LIKING EMMA WATSON!!!



Yeah... you basically attacked someone in a way that wouldn't even be allowed here. However, here, you might get the post moderated / changed and then a warning if you hadn't done that before.

Basically calling something "gay" is the issue.



Now we need a mod to explain why he got banned because I'm not going to touch it to be safe.

Because it's tantamount to calling someone gay. Which is not an unreasonable thing to do if someone finds Emma Watson "too curvy", IMO. I've seen more curves on a ruler.

On the topic... they should have annastasia morna play annastastia in the movie...

Ok, here it is: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=50329662&postcount=412

I think you got banned for liking women that look like men.  That is all I am saying XD

Yep! Gay is not a usable word now. It's the G** word.

What's the issue.  If someone was less curvy than Emma Watson, then that would be/look like a man.  It wasn't an insult, a fact.  That's why I am so confused.  I've seen more blatant insults against certain races, nationalities and religions that have nothing happen to them.  It actually kinda pissed me off, because it felt like a mod going too far.

I got moderated one time here and it was a misunderstanding that got clarified and all was good.  I just figured that's how things work with misunderstandings, especially considering how ridiculous the membership process is with the GAF.
