this is my 10,917th post in the forums, you have under 100... i am currently freemium, you are premium... i fluctuate between premium and freemium, quite often... i have contributed to the site in many ways that you may not be aware of, but that old timers appreciate... let's see; changed the accessibility of the clan world for all users (low rank, high rank, freemium, premium, anyone... and yes, was threatened by admins over it), created uniform sigs that are flown by clans (considered spamming and did a time out for that one), helped create the bigotry/racism guidelines for the site, created contests in which actual prizes like full years of premium were introduced, have helped with multiple rule changes and site changes, have been the voice for the little guy vs. "the man" from the get go. what have you done for the community within these forums or for the site?
i don't understand what my status as premium or freemium has to do with and of this. and let me make my concerns with your suggestion, easy enough for you to understand:
your suggestion is offensive, elitist and DISCRIMINATORY
if you don't like what people are saying, if you don't like the conversation, if you don't like seeing their silver icons, USE YOUR FOE LIST. even better, start your own user group and control who can come in and post in that group. doesn't have to be a clan, it can be a user group, thus members could be in clans and your group. otherwise, you sound like an obtuse person, who has issues with things people say that you perceive as dumb or ignorant or not worthy of your time. this suggestion is disgusting and goes against the very fabric of the culture of acceptance that CC has championed since the beginning. i am truly embarrassed for you and your discriminatory suggestion. guys like you put marks on peoples clothes and send them off to places where you won't have to see them. guys like you make people you don't like, for whatever discriminatory reason, sit in the back of buses, use separate water fountains, eat at lunch counters and use different restrooms.
your suggestion is so appalling and disgusting, i hope you think about what it says about you as a person and your ability to interact, not only with this community, but with society in general. the black jesus weeps for your soul...-JĆ©sus noir
p.s.- quick definition for you: Discrimination is treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing is perceived to belong to rather than on individual merit.
