The Rayaan / Jacob(smooth) Situation
#15
RE: The Rayaan / Jacob(smooth) Situation
Oh I nearly forgot. I would have posted this in the original thread in off-topic had it not been locked (I never posted in that thread):

The privacy policy clearly reads this:
  • "You are also required to state your religious views, which is displayed on your profile for the benefit of all members. This information is not checked for validity or accuracy, and is publicly accessible once your account is created."

With all due respect what Rayaan did was a clear violation of the present written policy which states very clearly that "this information is not checked for validity or accuracy". To me that phrase is very clear and it means that a person's stated religious beliefs will not be investigated by staff; yet that is exactly what was done in this instance.

Tiberius, since you didn't specifically address this part of the privacy policy in your post, could you please clarify the staff's collective opinion on whether my interpretation of this is accurate or if you have a different interpretation of this part of the privacy policy?

Yes in that instance, and I too found the comment quite distasteful. But live and learn hey?

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
