mph Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 In <a href="http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=007Xiv">this thread</a> I responded to two posts. One criticized an A&I rep for not being a site supporter, and another incorrectly linked the phrase "hara-kiri" to Muslims (and suggested that more Muslims should commit suicide). <p> Those two posts were deleted from the thread, but my response to them is still there, and doesn't make any sense now. I'd appreciate it if my post would be deleted, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mg Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Matthew, I wasn't aware of this episode at all. But let me just ask: is the member who suggested "more Muslims should commit suicide" still a member of this community? <p> If so, a question to the management: why...? <p> Where does verbal abuse end on photo.net ? To me this sort of posts should translate in the immediate deletion of the member's account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mph Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 I see my post has been deleted. Thank you. I honestly do not remember who wrote that offensive remark. The original poster described the his slides as being "Harry Carey" and in disarray. Someone wrote that he meant "hari kari" (?) and described it as a Muslim term for suicide, and as "underutilized." In context, it was clear that he meant that the suicide method was underutilized, not the term. (Hara-kiri is a Japanese term and has nothing to do with Muslims.)
