While the post may not have been intended to be about politics or sexuality, it included some bits that took it well outside acceptable meme boundaries.

inb4 someone who doesn't understand ironic "gay rights" or "this character is gay haha lol" memes says something like "uh actually? in the lore on page 4835783475 of the book of,, noxus,,,,, swain said he hated the gays"

^This right here is basically inviting discussion of "ironic gay rights" and, further, is boiling "this character is gay" into a joke. While I appreciate that may not have been your intent, ultimately the way a thread comes across matters more to us (in terms of what content is/isn't allowed) than the manner in which it was intended.

Further, other lines in the thread were also not acceptable. Take the following comment of yours:

icant believe you guys hate the gays

Again, while it seems from context that you meant that in a humorous manner, it's a type of humor that we don't allow on the boards.

I just recently had my posts removed because of comments that were "borderline" according to some moderator. I did not insult anyone or anything. It was a bit of a heated discussion, but no insults were tossed out. My god have people gotten soft. Can't say anything these days without people (or some moderator) getting all social justice-esque on you. Pretty ridiculous times.
