Nightcloak, I'm sorry that the joke offended you but as best I can tell, it doesn't seem thatArvon intended any harm with it.
As with any joke, it's always possible that someone will be less than amused so please be careful when posting them. I've seen a number of things passed off as 'jokes' that I wasn't amused by, but as long as they aren't deliberately spiteful or hurtful in general, I try to ignore them. Keep in mind we all have different tolerance levels for various topics and situations so something you find hilarious may hurt someone else, especially if ethnicity, race or religion are involved. We need to be sensitive to this but at the same time try not to be OVERsensitive to things that might not be intended to offend. It's a fine line, I admit, but we usually do ok with it.

If however, anyone sees something that they feel really is offensive for whatever reason, it's possible to report the post to the moderators to be followed up on. Sometimes it's not a joke and that's when we come in.
