There seems to be a bit of confusion as to what this thread is trying to accomplish. So Im making to clear points to make sure we are all on the same page here:
1 - This thread is about asking Realjock's admins to provide us with a forum section dedicated to helping out the LGBT community. This forum section will also provide certain features which I describe in my last paragraph bellow.
2 - This thread is not asking anyone to donate or anything of the sort but to simply say "yes I like the idea of having a dedicated forum section for this" or not.
----------------------
I was thinking that Realjock members can play a better role at promoting support for the LGBT around the world. We do have a Gay News & Events forum but I feel like it does not provide the right space or tools for us to be able to organize all the information regarding anti-gay movements and how to battle them through social media, donations and other forms of protest. What do you guys think about a forum section dedicated to supporting the LGBT community worldwide? This would be the place where we can expose anti-gay crackdowns, offer advice and help to those who are prosecuted anywhere. This forum section can even provide sticky threads for LGBT donations, protest meet ups and any other sort of topic that requires immediate attention. I'm a web developer I can easily set up a site for this...and I was about to but then I thought : what the hell? Realjock has over 100 000 gay members, if anyone has a pretty damn good chance at succeeding with this is this website. I dont know if the admin will even be willing to go for this but I surely hope so. Im tired of feeling useless and no we cannot fix all the wrong in the world but at least we can try to help with this particular "wrong". As part of the LGBT we should be more active with our support, we are a tiny minority and if we dont help out each other nobody else will. Please reply to this thread if you agree with this idea and if you believe that Realjock should be more involved and dedicated to supporting the LGBT community by providing a forum section for the cause along with some of the tools and options described above.
