Gay, Christian and Proud Poker Players Alliance

[DarthSikle]

I posted this thread on three poker forums:

www.pocketfives.com
www.cardplayer.com
www.pokerxfactor.com

Here it is:

All who like to join me are welcome to PM me here. We plan on having memeber's only tournaments every month. We have had one so far on Absolute. It was a freeroll with a $2,500 prize pool. Very Sweet.

Membership is free and only requires a statement that you are Gay, Christian and Proud.

I look forward to playing with all my gay christian brothers!

Pocketfives responded within three minutes with the following pm:

I'm sorry to have to delete your post, as I support what you're doing. That said, I don't think you (or our mods) are prepared for the slew of posts that will come as response. We don't have the time right now to constantly monitor it, and I don't want the hateful comments filling it up, so I made the decision to remove it from the boards. --Adam

To which I then replied:

Thank you for your honest and heartfelt reply. It saddens me in this day and age that this type of behavior is prevalent and indirectly supported by a bbs admin. I will be sure to let out members know and also, all the various poker platforms know about pocket 5's anti-gay hostility. I'm not sure if you know, but a party poker board member is homosexual. I wonder how he will feel about this? I urge you to reconsider and allow the original post. God knows, I can put up with verbal abuse quite easily.

He then responded:

I told you I support what you're doing. This is not about anti-gay hostility, it's about avoiding a situation where a lot of hatred will be posted on our site. I don't think we're victimizing you here.
