Level of decency.

I was laughing at the comment that men are dumb and say things up front while women outright lie about it. What's so bad about that?

I agree with pilot. Whomever son of a bitch uses profane lingo should be kicked out of here.

Pilot Bhaijan, can you post a few links (at least 10) to the posts in question. Just so everyone knows what you are talking about. Also post some links where you feel that Islam (or any other religion for that matter) was insulted.

Really X-treme, think about it. DO you honestly think that statement is funny enough for a guffah without the connotation to masturbation?

Masturbation happens man. It's no biggie. you can read about it in your morning papers. Discussions about what goes on in porn videos you'll have to find a specialist outlet. There's a difference whether you want to admit it or not.

Anyway, I'm no monk I never said I was. Main point of this thread is that the board has to cater for everyone not just adults.

X-treme: The stupid title of the thread was PORN VIDEOS. One of the participants was named RON JEREMY.

Yeah ok. point is still that this board is not just for adults only and members need to bear that in mind and that goes for everyone.

Thanks NYA - for pointing the 1st link^, 9 more to come - I guess??? :)

Pilot yaar, are you in a kindergarten or 2nd grade that you get a kick out of the curse son of a bitch? What’s such a big deal about it? Listen, if you consider yourself a silent observer and not an active participator, I can recommend a place for you to go, it’s the place where you keep your head. If you want to see changes, participate and see how many likeminded people you may attract. If not, then *** the hell off. I say it with love, don’t take it the wrong way. Do you know how insulting your comments are to people like Gadha and others who spend all day here trying to get to have a little bit of gupshup with fellow Desis?

Must be a new rule for you. I’ve seen you post “Allah” or the “prophet of Islam’s” name as recently as this week without the mandatory praise following it. You can’t force people to follow your version of religon anyway. Especially for those who think it is silly and insignificant for that kind of window dressing.

Before complaining about how others defame your religion or prophet, perhaps you should avoid such statements as these:

The Jewish holy book is racist, its a racist doctrine and a racist creed.

I don't know how to post links to other threads here, but just wanted to address the profanity issue. Yes Pilot, some "big" words may definitely have a base value, in which case you simply ignore them or descend to their level and reply in like manner. They are not the run-of-the-mill vulgar slang atleast, you got to hand it to those posters. Vulgarity does not fall well on the ear, but one can tolerate a nicely sugar-coated gali somewhat better. Yes?

When you talk about vulgar words, there are many "daily language" words that I personally find reprehensible. For example, some in Xtreme's posts above:

Masturbation happens man. It's no biggie.

Now that word I simply can't type.

When did I say penis and vagina are pornography? I was talking about you and Ron Jeremy getting carried away in the Porn Video thread. Go read it again if you missed it.

Some words above also, my fingers don't like to form, and neither do my eyes like to see; esp. in a "Family" forum.

How can such "daily usage" words be allowed, while forbidding a comic relief item like what you wrote:

How are you going to define your 9 years old what DUMBASS really means?

You can say idiotic donkey and still retain the same meaning, nahin? But would you call that a personal insult now?

WHERE does one draw the line as to what is permissible and what is not in words that are bandied about on a daily basis?

Again, personal insults should be dealt with personally and not elaborated on the board, but communal insults really are quite boundaryless. There's no personal element in there I don't think.

No one has as yet told me what a place like Corner Room which frankly shames my older-twenties sensibilities, is doing on a "Family Forum".

As for language usage, the beauty of any language is twisting and turning the words to come up with unique phrases that look and feel not so bad after all. You can do that in Urdu as well, but I have seen numerous Cafeites use such vulgar urdu that it's preferable for me to stick to English. Gadha ji for instance in the Chaltahai thread about handbags, decended to a level of urdu profanity that was a put off. He often does that btw. Even if it is done subtly, it is disgusting. Yet, how come the urdu writer crowd sees no shameful aspect of all that? There are just as many understandings or passings of innuendos in Gadha's and other peeps posts. Calling Sadi Sobi "gobi" and using that word in all sorts of connotations would be an example of a personal insult - is that fair? Just because it is said in Urdu, does it make it alright?

People, don't hide behind the hijab of religion to post vulgarities when it suits you. It makes you no different from the hypocritical Mullah. Everyone likes to have a bit of fun and frolic, there is no harm in that, but come out and do it properly rather than run behind religious petticoats. You can't be starched up all the time. Even Nadia_H whose posts I respect immensely, lets her down once in a while to enjoy herself. She's not hiding an inner self, and neither should anyone else. If you don't post responsibly yourself, don't expect others around you to do so.

l8r.

  1. I always say “rasool Allah”, if my mistake I have used their blessed name, then Allah forgive me, but I show more respect to our master then 99.9% of you ppl.-plus no one is saying dont use the world Allah. :rolleyes:

  2. That thread was not anti semetic or anything. It was based on cold hard teaching of Torah, wich you can find on any website. Such as “non jes are sub human”, “you can cheat the non jew” so on. Also ppl agreed with it, so you cantb act like I’m the only person heere exposing the lies of those who defame Islam.

I know displaying the racism of Jews hurts you, but live with it-it was not a silly thread, was not childish-it was prper discussion on an issue, such as Islam and Women-you dont post those threads al over the place in complaint.

I agree with myself namely,

the only point of concern for me is the language used at times...........this per se is not bad in my opinion but what is disturbing is that it is getting a structural character, that's not right.

with respect to making remarks about pakistan or anything else......i don't mind because 'we' are as much culprit to making remarks as the 'others'.

NYA That was really fast, I was expecting 9 more replies from you but you did it in just one shot. From your posts and previous threads I can see that you may or may not be married but for sure you don't have kids around you. Once you get to a point where you'll have a complete family and they all will be browsing the same website as you do then your language and your thoughts will be much different from what it is right now. Till then people like us will be looking at Admins and Mods...

If you would like to see changes and then 1st start from yourself. I am already changed... As for attracting the likeminded... sorry to disappoint you and other but I am not running an election here instead you can browse back and see for yourself ... how many people agreed to what I said. People who spread vulgarity may be the one who could have felt insulted but for sure not Gadha or rest of the gang. But still for your tassala I'll confirm with Gadha.

Pilot, So the problem dear is with your family. Try doing something about them. Don’t tell me you lock them inside the house and don’t let them go out for fresh air. Reading your post really tells me you have major issues, participating at gupshup is the least important one of them.

Try net-nani or something. It will help.

Are you by the way suggesting to get rid of the Corner Room? Where sometimes even us adults get shivers by reading the kind of stuff that goes on.

One last time, when you come here and say that you are a silent participant, but you like to see changes made, you are being insulting to all those who participate here. We don't need **ing silent observers, they should keep their mouth shut. It is the people who participate that matter. I hope it is not too hard to swollow for you. My having a family or not is none of your **ing business, and you having or not is none of mine.

One man's master is another man's false prophet who insulted their saviour. Religion is not an exact science or some monolith where you dictate to others who they should refer to as 'master' or that they should show reverence to a person they deem as irrevelant in their religion or spirituality. It still doesn't give one the right to label a whole religion and their sacred texts 'racist'.

Guys,

when you pick up your papers in the morning do you see it filled with a bunch of obscenities? Why not? Is it a surprise to you that they don't print **** this or **** that?

I don't make the rules here and the Corner Room wasn't my idea either so I don't intend to answer for that. Chill out, have a good time but don't step over the limits, that's all.

Newpapers are published by knowledgeable people who understand the issues, have studied the craft and can make the proper discernments in fact of fiction.

Unless you are telling me that the Mod of the corner room is a Sexoligist or a Porn Star.

I don't think newspapers are all that clean. Afterall, there are those Victoria Secret's special edition sale thingies. Allbeit in black & white but still it can generate indecent levels of exposure.

NYA!!! Taliyaan!!!

Alhumdulillah Me and my family are fine by the Grace of Almighty Allah. I am not surprised with your attitude and the way you are losing your wit and cool mizaj. Thanks for your advise though re: Net-Nani or Nana instead I would recommend you to install one.

Hate to tell you that ... but ... you don't need to be a frequent poster if you wish to see the decent or moral values to be implemented.

For your information - it is not necessary to be MNA (member of national assembly) to have your say...

Stay cool!

OK Pilot you win. Now get lost.
