I just wanted to personally apologize that there has been a certain member on here who has gone around spreading hate comments about gay people. I regret to announce that this has only just been brought to my attention after what seems to be months of it going on.

So to anyone who was offended by this person, I am personally sorry. I'm also severely offended that a user like this was participating within our forums and so I have removed every ounce of his homophobia from this site.

His homophobic posts have all been deleted with a personal message to him from me stating that if he continues I will personally see to it that the Police in the area of his residence are aware. Basically, he is gone!

But let him be an example of how homophobia is NOT tolerated on this website, and will be dealt with in the most strict way possible. Bigots you have been warned.

really? That's pretty harsh. I mean why would you come on this site and then spread that kind of stuff.

Flameboard, you did the right thing - and thanks - but you shouldn't have to make a personal apology.
Whoever the guy is, feel sorry for him ( or even her ) and hope that some day he, or she, gets a grip on things, ( no pun intended ).
Homophobia is never going to go away - we all need to do our bit and educate the ignorant.

I am glad to read this! Stopping him was a great thing.

I hadn't seen any of this, but thank you for taking this action. And no apology from you is necessary. Thank YOU for the great job you do with this site.

Wait a minute, does this mean that someone sat at home on their computer looking for a gay forum to leave abusive comments on? Did he get a warm and fuzzy feeling when he typed them up? Is his mother proud of him?

There are some sad people out there, aren't there?

Sad and pathetic

It's quite funny what people do to annoy others :p

Unfortunately I'm well aware of the hatred of gay people having been bashed by such a person. I was left in a coma for 5 weeks and still cant work because of brain injury.

Ouch, that's ridiculous. Sorry to hear that
