I'm completely offened by one of the member's banners in their signature. I believe by all within me that it needs to be removed NOW!
If the staff at this forum will not take care of this problem by Thursday, I will leave this forum completely and never return.. you may say "oh well good" but i will NOT recommend this forum to anyone I know.. I will not use codes or share any links or anything with this forum.
Depression is a mental illness and can't be helped unless some use medication and even that can't help completely and I'm one of those Americans that was diagnosed with depression and I was completely and utterly offened by this signature.
It is rude and it needs to be removed now. If the staff will not help and be respectful then I will not recommend this forum or any of it's members or anything to anyone and I will post on my forum why this forum shouldn't be posted on.
It's disrespect and something needs to be done about it. If you would like to please post below or email me at okla_rebel18@yahoo.com
(The subject is the member who I veiwed)

This is the internet. If you find something offensive, you're better off ignoring it rather than trying to change it.

Well, this issue should be best dealed with Aleon (James) himself. I hope you understand the signature is not meant literally and he is only joking. I understand how this might offend you, but it is his right to free expression to have the signature in his profile. Anyways, please resolve this with him, via private message or instant message. Although you may get more exposure, this topic will eventually be locked and you probably will not get as nice a response from Aleon than if you private messaged him.

If there is an issue regarding something that offends you, it is best to send either the person himself a PM or talk to me or urbancinderella about it.
James will I'm sure respond to you soon enough, most likely though PM.
Sorry that is has caused some offence towards you, however I can assure you it's not designed to be taken seriously or spreading anything hateful.
From my perspective, I don't find it particually offensive but it's more geared towards those claiming they have it when they clearly don't.

Just to note, I am American.
Ya know what, actually, rather than wasting my time posting here, why don't you create a debate in Chillout about these so called "metal illnesses".
It's only disrespect if you're offended by it. And quite frankly, if you're offended by a signature, you shouldn't be here anyways.
There's one simple lesson that far too many people need to learn. People are cruel, get over it. That is but a taste of the real world.
Which brings me to a simply and well known phrase that just proves my point.
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares.
EDIT: Sorry Oliver, I was posting this and kept getting bothered on MSN. Plus having to proof read a paper.
Second edit: If you have any further issues, feel free to drop me a PM about it. You won't get sympothy though.
