I made a post in this 'guess what' thread; as there was a lot of homophobia there, annoucing that I was bisexual, and I had a choice to choose my own sexual orientation.
There was a lot of 'If I saw a gai out on the street, i'd beat him up' going on.

And I get frozen for it?

I had a friend check, and they only got warnings (at the most).

What the hell?

Your posts were definately against the rules.

Why did you ever think something like that would be allowed?

They keep the site PG friendly. They don't think children should be exposed to material of a sexual nature.

Ah; but considering you're not allowed on the forums until you are 13; it shouldn't be a problem.


Also; I did not create the topic; I was trying to say that there is nothing wrong with homosexuality, and if you think there is, then you're not worth anyone's time.
Surely; I had a correct point?
Or was I frozen because my post had the word 'bi' in it? ;) Quite silly; if you ask me. Considering the Homophobes got off with nothing more than a warning.


those forums are hell.

You deserved what you got really, but the other.. People, should have shared your fate.

Perhaps the member that froze you was not the member who warned the others (hence the different standards)? Or that you've already had another warning?

I'd really like to know whether they'd also freeze/warn an account for announcing one's heterosexual though...

it is still sexual content after all, doesn't really matter what point one's trying to prove.

Which is the point I'm trying to make.

It's not fair for me to get a worse punishment than they; as I was merely responding to THEIR POST which broke the rules; mine was more of a followup post.

EDIT: I've made multiple posts saying 'I like girls' and I hadn't received a single warning for any of them. ;)

At the end of the day, you were breaking the rules. No ifs, no buts. It may not be entirely fair but nothing ever is. Still, I do agree that the others should have been iced too.

I do agree about TNT being a bunch of Jerks. But I've got my own personal reasons for thinking that way.

On the other hand, it is unfair that you got frozen and everyone else only got a warning. The filters that neopets use is very odd and at times stupid. I however suggest, {if you get your accoutn back, or make a new one} either avoiding the boards, or just being very careful of what you say.

I've heard stories of people being sarcastic {over the internet} and being frozen for it. Which is hard to tell the difference between sarcasm and real, over the computer anyway. But anything can be taken the wrong way.

eg; 'sucks' is censored, but 'hell' isnt.

Probably because it's a component of "hello." I have no idea though; I try my best to keep away from the boards for that reason.

The NeoBoards are not a safe social network. They're a huge open sewer. If you don't want to be covered in human waste, don't go swimming there.

It had potentional; once.


I'm considered a 'report happy' because I report people's threads that are about 'being raped' or 'having 3 kids at 13'... blah.

I'm sick of those forums, actually. I'll take your advice, and not go there again.

If you're not thirteen, you also broke the rules by registering here. ;)

I believe you have to be older than 13 to use the forums- or at least you used to have to be older than 13. It was in the Terms and Conditions somewhere, I swear.

Just like if you're under 13, you cannot play 'gambling' games.
