I don't think I really need to explain much, their admins are transphobic. stalin-smokin

Snowe, an admin, complained about a transgender person being offended over being misgendered. Ategon made an apology post but keeps snowe on, no public apologies from snowe to the transgender people affected.

Textbook very-smart

note: conversation about Ategon's use of the word triggered edited out, might be misunderstanding, need clarified

The comment that was removed was:

Wow this Kuori person is a massive idiot. They to refer to a 3rd party is basic English.

You gave the reason for its removal as:

be civil, you have a point but you dont have to call someone an idiot for it

What do you mean by this? In what way does this transphobe have a point?

sorry my bad with that wording. Point there is referring to them having a point they are attempting to argue which is the second part of that comment (the they section). Point in the context just refers to an argument rather than the supporting of an argument. Realize now that it can be interpreted pretty differently from what i intended edit: updated it to just be the be civil part
