[Bangelnuts]

 Due to a highly offensive series of Posts in  the thread which pay sites would you subscribe to ? on the Podium .Motoki said goodbye to MATY. I for one would Love to have Motoki come back to MATY and feel that the thread did indeed  have offensisive gender preference posts regarding homosexuality. I enjoyed Motoki's Posts and his helpful Information Bailed me out of Jam's in my game more than once. please take a moment to take this poll

Motoki, I always thought you had a thicker skin than that. By leaving you are giving what some people would want the gay community to do, to just go away. Either way, I hope you and yours are well or will be well with expedience. Take care and I hope to see you around again soon as I value your opinions, humour and general state of Motokiness, gay, straight or just plain Motoki.

Very well put, bravo Nectere.

But I do believe it is a multitude of reasons that he feels the need for a break, at least that what I inferred from the post in the thread. Sort of a vacation (hopefully not too long), and if he really needs to walk away for a while, maybe he'll pop in from time to time to say hello. And there really is absolutely nothing plain about Motoki :D (not a real smilie)

[Bangelnuts]

 come on Motoki we need our lord of the Nannies back

[gali]

Two tumbs, nectere! Motoki and all of us have to fight this religious prejudice!

Edit:  Veil, we don't want him to take a break - we want him right back!!! If he takes a break, he will forget us, and will never return.

He was, and is, one of the respected members of the forum, and we really love him.

We want you back - don't desert us!!!

Already the forum feels like there's someone vital gone AWOL!

Two tumbs, nectere! Motoki and all of us have to fight this religious prejudice!

I second that.

Motoki - Please don't let the opinions of a few people prevent the rest of us good folk from receiving your knowledge, wit, and wisdom.

[Elvie]

Yes, come back.  You're More Awesome than you realize 

[rohina]

I can understand why Motoki left. I don't think it was just "thin-skinned". I just saw the thread, and I don't understand why someone didn't move it into Retardo Land when it started to descend into such an assinine discussion.

Of course, I am echoing all those calls for him to come back.

And, there you have it. You can't have your cake and eat it, I guess. The drawback of free speech is that people are thus free to express their opinions, regardless of how distasteful, ignorant, and bigoted they are.

as my hubby is always saying opinions are like a-holes everyone has one  and not necessarily one worth listening to. the anti homosexual posts are  a good example of opinions not  worth paying attention to.and point to narrow mindedness at its height.

I thought it was that everyone has one and they're all full of shit?

As someone, (I forget who) once said: " I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

Not sure I am totally in agreement with that.  There are times when some people should keep their bigoted opinions to themselves - but of course, they won't!

he was referring to the opinion not  the a**hole taken in your context that saying is correct as well

Hmmm. Ok I just have had my head up my ass because I totally missed this one. Personally I don't give a damn who is screwing who, when where or how. It should only matter to you if you are their significant other. Yet again quoting Men in Black "Jay: Why the big secret? People are smart, they can handle it.
Kay: A *person* is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."

[aussieone]

Hmmmm....

Most of us who identify as gay/lesbian/bisexual (myself being a lesbian) encounter predjudice, bigotry etc from some people in the community. Hwever, just when you think you've developed skin as thick as a Rhino's hide, it takes someone to make one little comment that can cut so deep to the bone that all of the walls and defences you've put up over the years crumble in an instant and it is extrememly upsetting and frustrating when that happens.

I can understand why Motoki has decided to 'have a break' or call it quits even. Perhaps it may have been the last straw to have encountered predjudice at a site that he obviously loves and feels comfortable being a member of, perhaps he was a little oversensitive, like we all are at times......

Hopefully he'll pick himself up, dust himself off and come and join the fray again.

Should have remembered, studied Voltaire's Candide for A Level but it was 40 years ago!
