      Interesting Name for a Website

      You’re setting up a website, you’ll be selling pens. Do you give any thought to what might be a bad name for your company? Not these guys.

      And they've put their email address in plaintext / mailto on the front page - just right for spam gatherers - They're going to get some really appropriate sounding spam!

      How does one find a website called *****land?
      You don't just happen to come across a site with a name like that (I know I never have). It must be a gay thing.
      Mr. PC-GUY, were you doing some Googling for pen, island or *****?

      BVV, do you have something against people posting things in fun, or is it PC-Guy, or is it Gay people? Cuz if PC-GUY WAS gay, he'd be giving them a good name. We're not in the habit here of questioning people's sexual preferences, nor slamming them.Anyway, we do have fun in Janie's corner, and if it goes against your sensibilities, maybe you should just look the other way and keep the comments to yourself.
      That said, you are welcome to join in the fun.

      How do you know he ISN'T gay?
      Having said that, there was no need for your comment anyway. I have nothing against fun, PC-GUY, gays and, I might add, gay pc-guys in general.
      What do you take me for? A religious lunatic?
      Clearly what I said was only in jest. I was merely "extending" the original joke.
      A GUY (albeit a PC-GUY) presents us with a site called *****LAND. How did he find that site? Hmmm, that makes you (at least me) wonder...
      Perhaps it wasn't even funny. Ah well, you can't please everyone all the time.

      That's all there is to it. A little, cheap sexual innuendo. No harm or offense intended.

      The way I know he isn't gay is between me and PC-Guy, and not open for public discussion.
      I take you for nothing, as I don't know you.
      The harm has been done, but only to yourself. Tell me, how many forums have the members ignored you on, or have you just been booted from?

      Quite a twist to a harmless post about a website name. I can assure you,as admin,that none of the staff are gay.Everyone is married,has/ or had a spouse.That being said it doesn't matter if people are gay that visit,that's their business.Next time one of my staff are verbally attacked in any manner by you,it will result in a ban.The staff volunteer their time here to help people.They don't need/deserve to be abused,or hassled.None of us get paid for it,the forum does not generate revenue for us,or the site owner.

      Agree completely with Woody & Janie

      Yes we do like fun here, but we dont stand for attacks on people for their sexual preferences or any other reason, even if it was meant in jest.

      PC-GUY is a all round good guy, can U say the same about Urself BVV?

      Fair enough. Just choose your words more carefully next time.


      Seems this thread has gone in a bad direction... thus I'm going to close it. Enough has been said. Now go buy some pens.
