this isn't the first time discussion threads such as this have turned into group bashing threads.
are posts such as jackskeleton's and turd ferguson's allowed?
actually, the thread title could be considered bashing. unless randyc changed it to that. then it's funny.

I see no problem with them, unless I missed where they cross into personal attacks against members here.
Bashing of groups of people and/or celebrities or people in news articles has pretty much always been allowed with some exceptions like racist comments, bashing religions etc.

it's fine by me then. people that hide behind any sort of organization are fair game imo.
just wanted to make sure derogatory (well...as derogatory as 8 graders can be) names were ok before i started my thread about people who shoots themselves with low powered air guns on purpose.

It pretty much was. Could it have been edited? Sure. But by doing so we would have been hiding the offense instead of directly addressing it.
