It would seem that the moderator on here has the sense of humour of hemorrhoidal misery arse and is arbitrarily wiping threads that have been innocuous.
Good luck guys and may the moderator get their charisma bypass reversed.

Three people reported the post as being an impersonator of a member from IMDb, and someone else posted in the thread saying it definitely wasn't the same person. In addition, the username (Melanie000) had previously been used here already for the same behavior. There was nothing arbitrary about it. If it was indeed the original member from IMDb, I'll be happy to reinstate the account and delete the ones who made the false reports. Things like this are why I plan on having elected moderators for each forum. You guys know better than I who's who and which of you should be the mod (or mods) for this forum.
Thanks anyway for coming, @bigal96. I wish you well.

Thanks anyway for coming, @bigal96. I wish you well. It wasn't the original person from IMDB - which is me. I thought that here I would be able to escape the harassment I got there from a few (5 or 6 men) - and to see them keeping starting "parody accounts" in which I admit saying things that I never said, was very disheartening. Thank you for removing those attacks on me, it's much appreciated.

That is because "homophobia" has no objective meaning. It's an accusation that is actually meaningless. I could accuse someone of hating Scythians with as much fervour abd their only possible reaction is "wtf?

Are you saying that the couple I've been playing bridge with, who say all sorts of things about gay marriage and 'gays being pedophiles' are not being homophobic? What are they being then? When someone says something like 'Gay men are pedophiles', what kind of response should I give them? 'I'd say you're being homophobic, but it has no objective meaning'. That's nonsense, homophobic people exist.

That's nonsense, homophobic people exist. Please kindly define homophobic. Is it logical to accuse those of prejudice who criticise those devoted to a particular habit /taste /pastime? If I regard base jumpers as crazy people who have a death wish is that "extremeophilephobia?
