I wanted to keep it between him and me but when he didn't stop I had to tell the other mods to do something about it. And I think the issue now becomes public because he isn't a regular member, he's a moderator.
To bring it public is fine Fabi but I think everyone should be sensible to leave the topic between you and Burke and not jump onto the Burke hate train.

I assume people are grown ups who can manage to be respectful enough to a degree. And another poster repeatedly calling another a whore even after being asked not to, especially as a mod who is supposed be checking that of behaviour, its not cool as a poster and COMPLETELY unaccetaple as a mod.

I thought it was "jokes" until her above post and suprised he would behave like that.


If you are "ok" with this fine, and its public as it is already when I read him call her this in dozens of posts, and only reacted to it out of coriousity last time he said it.

That still does not explain why you had to write that post to interfere.

I questionned him calling you that Fabi (not cool even this risque jokes inviroment, out of the blue)), and was suprised you were "ok" with it (due to your lack of reaction and silence) and assumed it was some weird inside joke despite not seeing the jest side of it.

But to read the above, that you said you werent ok with it to him privately and for him to stop 20 days before (this is were it stopped being "harmless joke"), and he still continued? Thats were it became more then just a joke, to say the least, for him to ignore it and continue to insult you in that way, is clearly disrespectful. And if he continued it, not only as a mod, but as a poster, you were totally in the right to report it.

Seriously, what a dick move Burke. If someone behaves like that, they should be warned, and if its a mod, he shouldnt have it "suggested" to him to step down, but demoted. Simple as that.



P.S I defended Burke in bizzarely being compared to Seven, by saying what he says is in jest, for fun and does not really intend to insult (mostly), and that the comparison is hardly valid. But the above is simply nothing but a basic case of clearly and directly insulting someone else repeteadly (and as a mod to boot).
Thank you Montel Williams.

When he said said those things, people were laughing and later when its questionned people said it was just "jokes". Now I see confirmation its defenitely not, and I'm suprised, and seriously question his behaviour. If you think thats interferring, heed your own advice and dont "interfere".

A select few did yes. Mainly because we did not hear Fabi's side of things and were unaware of the PM she sent. Like I said the issue lies between her and Burke nobody else.

the world's top chefs are men.


what exactly are women good at anyway?
Be there for you when you need them. You just can't live without them.
Having a women right next to you who loves you, doesn't whine/complain, and appreciate who you are is the recipe of success. Now, finding this women is tough

So gay men can't be great?
A great gay man could have his best friend (a woman) behind him. The woman behind the great man (in the quote I posted) doesn't have to be the man's wife IMO. It could be his mother, best friend, daughter, muse, etc.

I don't think a woman who doesn't whine or complain exists!
