I recommend in general (to a few in here) that you know your sources, avoid flamming, and approach the debate in a mature manner.
theSLAYER edit on the 24th March, 2017 :
I'm only making a post here because of the onslaught of reports that are being prompted from here.
[For the record, my views are: you can marry whoever the hell you want. Just because I'm straight doesn't mean others have to be.
Granted, I see human rights as an "illusion", because rights can easily be stripped away in many circumstances, even if we are ignorant towards it.
But in an ideal society, it would be great to have access to something that should have been our birth right, right?]
As the reported content dates back to a good 8 years ago,
it's possible the views of said users have changed since then.
They may have been trolling, or ignorant, or simply stating an opinion that is deep from their belief system,
or a combination of any of those factors,
but whatever the case, I don't see a reason to infract these users as these posts before my time as a mod,
and most importantly, said users aren't being problematic right now.
As such, I'm re-locking this thread, with no other actions to be taken.
PS: if it's worth something, some of these reported posts already had actions taken against them then.
