    They are, but they keep creating new accounts and since there is no fee they will keep it up. It is mostly little children or bigots that really aren't worth the time of day.

    I would keep reporting them, getting them banned, and keep our forums clean of the trash. There are several of us that have taken to "policing" the forums to keep the trash down. Join us and report, report, report.

    Besides...reporting them and getting them banned ticks them off royally because they are denied the attention they so badly crave.

    "The Thracian Dogs are loose" and if you don't know what that means go look it up.

    Questions are by nature a supplication for information, evaluative and cognitive knowledge, and should be answered as such.

    It is not rude to point out the unacceptable substandard of English used in formulating questions. It is however unacceptable to tolerate the hatred of the Gay community that is posted on here. The answer is to report those hateful answers

    Yeah, I noticed it too- particularly a kid who laughed at us being gay...

    What I think it is: Just a bunch of hoodlums with nothing else to do... hell, I've seen this sort of thing at school. We were in a computer lab when a kid went onto Wiki Halo, and made the comment that UNSC marines are gay or something... the bastard got our school isp banned from the site.

    These people that terrorize us... serious action must be taken!

    Hm...i've got continuously questioned a sprint approximately it, yet you're ideal! you have an exceedingly keen eye and suggestions! super pastime! i think of that Kevin is greater out of their aim merchandising variety so they think of of him as much less significant; i'm not asserting I dislike Kevin..in simple terms proving a factor. yet there is likewise Zac Efron...he's 21....nicely, i are not getting why the editors try this. and that i think of that he's warm in simple terms like Nick and Joe. Joe is eighteen and he remains warm, and Kevin is barely an insignificant 2 years aside and that makes him grotesque??? what's up with that??? Zac Efron is 21 so does that make him grotesque, too? in simple terms with the aid of fact Kevin is older would not make him grotesque. And this makes me experience undesirable. Kevin won't be my sought after, yet remains component to the band and merits to be dealt with with understand. Why do human beings try this? it is spoke of as empathy...it would not experience good...ever! Starred cases 10!

    I agree with you, but every once in a while there is one that just hugs our souls. Look at the video about the gay mascot. Yes by the way they do seem to be increasing. They must be able to put down the crack pipe long enough to spew some hate.
