74 21-Apr-2016, 05:50 PM (This post was last modified: 21-Apr-2016, 08:08 PM by sloscotty.) I would like to see additional prefixes for this category. Something that would clue readers as something to avoid or not. What is "funny" to some might be offensive to others. If you click on a post labeled "funny" and are offended at the content, it's not your fault. The OP (and others, including myself) might find it "funny", but even if the content passes the "youtube test", it might not pass the "I wish I hadn't clicked on that" test. I never want to offend anyone, but I also believe in a certain level of expression that although some might find disrespectful - is not intended that way. Not sure what I'm asking for here - but I'm sure everyone knows what prompted this.
Thanks for reading,
Scotty

5 Unfortunately I have to disagree. Yes we know "I am the one" who is offended by wanting to respect women and ask that we don't use this site that "should" promote the positive aspects of our Hobby/sport to promote sexual innuendos or even political, sociological or other topics. We should be discussing FPV here. But it is also possible that I may be the ONLY one who feels this is true. If that is so then I can surely leave, because then "I" would be the one who is a negative influence and don't belong here. If that is indeed the case, I am prepared to leave.
I do think there is still a place in the world for Honor, Respect, and Just treatment of people who are different from us.
Maybe I am wrong.

74 I certainly DO NOT want anyone to leave the forum. I value the input of everyone here and will be disappointed if you decide to leave. I think there is room here for a wide variety of opinion and personal taste. I do not think any thread (including the one alluded to) was written in a disrespectful manner or with any intent of being disrespectful to anyone. I did apologize for my comment in the thread. It was not meant disrespectfully, and it did not come from someone who is disrespectful of women. However, I do understand how someone with different sensibilities than I have, could have found it offensive. Which is why I suggested some prefix for such things to warn readers. I personally believe there is room for all of us.
