I Thought The Mods Were Trying To Tone Down The Drama

Not Instigate the drama. Neither I or Logansteno are happy about the new tagline. Since when is it okay for the mods to make fun of users in the tagline? Seriously, this is not okay. There is no universe where this is okay

Yeah, seriously. I think someone may need to be dishonorably discharged.

Consider yourselves lucky! I’ve been here for, well, almost as long as Oppo itself and I’ve never been featured in a tagline

Dont be a dick. Whats rule number 2 again?

I would say to just take it in jest and laugh it off. I’m gay and my boyfriend and I get way worse on a daily basis in the real world, this is clearly just an in joke.

I do believe it’s:

On the other hand, during pre-Kinja every Oppo cursed your name with every fiber of their being.

Not really. It’s a needless attempt at forcing users out of our community. We may as well be VWVortex.

It’s been changed.

We don’t talk about that

Ive noticed, thank you

I saw it too. I normally (quietly) side with the mods, but that’s a bunch of bullshit. Someone needs to own up and resign or be resigned.

You guys able to find the culprit to reprimand them?

CB > Sam
06/26/2015 at 22:03

It doesn’t say who changes the taglines on Kinja (I checked on Photography, and all is says is the tagline), so the person who did it would have to fess up.

Sam > CB
06/26/2015 at 22:05

Damn. Hopefully we get some sort of an apology. Though we could probably just sweep this one under the rug.

Pretty sure it was arch duke. He commented to my last post saying “the tagline is better”.

Thats how I found out about the tag

CB > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
06/26/2015 at 22:33

It was changed before you posted, though. But you could be right.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > CB
06/26/2015 at 22:35

No, the comment is still there:

Kinja'd!!!

CB > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s

No, I mean the tagline was changed before Archduke commented on your post, I believe.

That may be a little far. I'm also reminded of a rule.

Theres a few rules if I remember correctly

Oh, so THAT’S what all the hooplah was about.

A gay joke. Real fucking funny, anonymous mod.

Why are you so offended? Do you think gays are inferior? If not, why are you so insulted? Are you afraid some girl you want to hoon will see? Are you unsure about your sexuality and are the repressed feelings making you upset?

Dsscats > Sam

I laughed at the tagline. I totally agree.

I dunno, it is technically a plain statement of fact. Same sex marriage doesn’t necessarily have to be “gay marriage”.

Or so the tiny lawyer in my brain says. :|9

It was a jab at logansteno and I

On one hand, true.

On the other, is this topic any better?

Just so you know, it wasn't me.

Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing who changed the tag. It was immediately changed when other moderators were made aware of the issue and I informed the group that this was something that should not be done again.

With that said, though this tag itself was a bridge too far, there is a history for jokes about individual commenters in the tag. Hell, half of them are about Brt. This barely qualifies as a joke and very much is an issue, but the issue is the content of the tag, not that the tag was about an individual user.

What offended me was more the timing of the tagline, than the content. Though I wasnt very happy about the content either. Making that kind of remark about me without first asking permission leaves me to believe it was done with malicious intent rather than in jest

How is that at all offensive?
