Teacher fired for being a former pr0nz star.

[url=http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2011/09/05/drew-gay-porn-teacher.hln?hpt=hp_t2]Not the first time this has happened[/url], but in previous cases, it was a woman teacher who was fired. In this case it is a male teacher and the school district's reason is very similar. "Because the teacher's past activities can easily be found on the Internet, it would be too disruptive to a learning environment to have them attempt to be in the classroom." I can see both sides of this. The teacher wasn't doing anything illegal or wrong in their past career, but at the same time, it would be impossible to prevent class disruptions once his former career is seen by parents and students. So, how much can a person expect to be disconnected and distanced from their past activities? Should anyone expect to have a "clean slate" when it comes to their personal history?

I don't think that it was the word condom [url=http://admin.bungie.net/Search/default.aspx?q=A%20Turian%20Geth&g=5]that got the member banned[/url].

We'd be better off if this thread were locked.[/quote] I say we call that word something else. How about a Pom-pom star?

  • How sad that someone has lowered themself to looking blatantly past discussion value just so he can call a mod out on a mistake.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Craigkong [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Recon Number 54 Fine. I'll ban myself for a week (in a couple of minutes so someone can see/quote this). Just for the sake of integrity. Happy?[/quote][/quote] Wow. I'm pretty disapointed in the community. Surely the people who called for the ban should be banned for spam due to off topic posts. OT: I guess he wouldn't be able to teach if people found out.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Nannerpus [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] chubbz So you're butthurt because he bypassed '-blam!-'? Seriously? Last time I checked, Recon wasn't True Underdog. [/quote] Nope! I'm butthurt because whenever somebody else does it THEY GET BANNED![/quote] So instead of being mature about the issue you have with the moderation, and maybe going into the Septagon and making a thread about it to get a little perspective from the moderation side, you decided to make Recon your scapegoat and essentially bully him into banning himself.

  • OK, I looked, really for the Adult Film one? For real? You guys do realize that now he's done this he will NEVER show an ounce of leniency ever again, right? Now he HAS to be a hard butt. And Recon was one of the few who would actually talk to you in the questionable threads. He saw the discussion merit when other mods would lock and ban. Great job guys. *slow claps*

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Nannerpus [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Miles Of Blood IMO- you complain too much- and thus a Moderator has relieved himself of authority to please you... /srs [/quote] Actually, my complaints in recent months have been due to this phenomenon. If you go back and read my posts in the Community Forum, you can see that I quite often call for better moderation skills. I believe that part of the reason we have such problems is that the Mods are used to a different type of Flood. They've come to expect certain things form users that many of them do not hold true to anymore and, as a result, unless they have a -blam!- ton of time to commit to "knowing" the new community they are unprepared. I.M.O.[/quote] LOL Community forum... They don't need to know the community, they need to moderate it. Making him ban himself has left a hole in the mod chain that will be filled with trolls, spammers and Meat spinners. He was one of the better Mods (Not saying that any are bad) that joined in with relevant contributions and got involved with discussions. Well done Old Boy /sarcasm
