I think that those things only apply to soap stars, LoL. I mean, people are downright VILE to certain celebrities in the Off-Topic forum.

The only reason we're nice to soap stars is because it's likely that they visit our forum, many of them. Blake Lewis? Rosie O'Donnell? Paris Hilton? Doubtful.

That said,a picture tells a thousand words. Blake grabbing another man's crotch naturally will raise questions. Also, I think there's a difference between saying "he's gay" and "OH MY GOD WHAT A NASTY FLAMER!" The latter is pretty offensive to EVERYONE, whereas the other statement is pretty simple and un-sensational. Why would saying Blake's gay be considered 'bashing' or anything similar, anyway? Is it an insult to be gay? Surely not! LoL

Of course there is nothing wrong with being gay. But what if he is not...that is what I am saying to you.

If he's not, great. What if someone referred to me as 'straight' and I wasn't? No big deal.

Fact is, he grabbed another man's crotch in a picture. Naturally, that's going to cause a bit of discussion. He knew it, himself. I'm sure he's aware of the rumors and he still grabbed his crotch, anyway. By grabbing Chris's cock, he's obviously comfortable enough with himself and his own sexuality to do that without worrying about people's reactions, so I doubt he'd be upset with people questioning it. He's confident enough with himself -- obviously. The cocky cock-grabber! LoL

Here they are again for your consideration.

1. The flaming of members or staff at SON is not allowed. Flaming is completely unacceptable and will be dealt with immediately. No matter what that person has said to you, there is no reason for you to go off on him or her. If you have a problem with something posted, use the Report to moderator feature.

The "calling out" of members is not allowed. If you have a problem with a member, contact a staff member or the SON administration. Should one "call out" another SON member to bash them or to fight with them, they will be banned.

2. No trolling. A troll is someone who comes into a community and posts inflammatory, rude, repetitive or offensive messages designed intentionally to annoy and antagonize other members or disrupt the flow of discussion. Additionally, trolls do not contribute to the discussions at hand, and join only to link to other sites. Anyone found to be a troll will have their account deleted immediately.

3. Respect others on the board. There's no need to resort to name calling just because they may disagree with you. Should a member be found to be harassing another via board posts, PMs or e-mail sent through our boards, that person will have his/her account banned immediately.

4. The decisions made by the staff at SON are final. There are times that SON will make decisions that everyone may not agree with, but it is our job to regulate the board. If you are in disagreement with how the Soap Opera Network and its Community Forums (SON Boards) are managed, please contact the Administration via [email protected]

Posts created through the message boards relating to this topic will immediately be deleted.

5. Warnings will be removed at the discretion of the SON staff. Do not PM a staff member asking when they are going to remove your warning.

6. SON does not allow spamming. If you're going to create a thread or respond to one, make sure there is a point. Responses with only smiley's, or the simple "Lol, I agree" or "yep" is considered spamming in the main discussion areas and will result in a warning. If you'd like to get your post count up, there is a designated area for that, which is the Playing Field.

7. If you have any account problems, always an administrator before creating an additional account. Having more than one account is not allowed at SON and will result possibly all of the accounts being banned. However, it is quite reasonable that one may create an additional account due to various reasons. The best thing to do is contact a one of the Administrators to get your issue resolved as soon as possible. Members found to have more than one account will have to inform the admin of which account they intend to use.

8. Porn or general nudity of any form is not allowed on the forums. Any person found to be posting porn will be banned.

What the F is an ant queen? That doesn't even make sense.

King, anyone who knows anything about ants knows that ants live in colonies and there is a huge female ant, called the queen, since she's the leader of the colony and if she dies the whole colony dies.

I just read Paula Abdul broke her nose trying to avoid falling on her dog. She will still be on air tomarrow night.

There is also rumors of Blake singing a duet with Katherine McPhee. I guess her fans sent letters to Idol and there was an outcry to have her on the show and the rumor is that Blake starts off a song like he normally does (beatboxing I'm sure) and then Katherine comes in halfway through and the song becomes one of her songs.

Anyway, just thought I would post these. Thought they were interesting.

Oh, great. Nice way to win Blake votes from the McPhee fans.

I know I shouldn't laugh. But Paula and her antics crack me up!

Good. I hate McPhee and I hate Blake. Let them stew in their shittiness TOGETHER!

Well, if the rumor is true, it isn't supposed to happen until Wednesday night during the results show.

In regards to Paula, she wasn't hospitalized and it wasn't said to be serious but we'll see how she looks tomarrow night.

I am curious to find out who is performing as guests Wednesday night. I know they are starting at 7:30 with a red carpet thing. i heard Kelly will be performing. I also heard Daugthy was performing but not sure if it's Tuesday or Wednesday night. Anyone hear anything?

Here are some Idol song spoilers for tomarrow night if anyone wants to know (just play the clip on the page):

http://www.myfoxaustin.com/myfox/pages/New...mp;pageId=3.1.1

Here is what the reporter says for anyone that wants to know (don't look if you want to be surprised):

Blake is singing first and is singing:

1.) "You Give Love A Bad Name" by Bon Jovi (more beat boxing....ugh)

2.) "She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5 (well, he did good with Maroon 5 last week so why not)

3.) Winning Idol Single from Songwriting Contest

Jordin sings second and is singing:

1.) "Broken Wing" by Martina McBride (superb choice, one of my favorites performances of hers this year)

2.) "Fighter" by Christina Aguilera (strange choice, I guess this is what she hinted at when she said she would be pulling something young and fresh out)

3.) Winning Idol Single from Songwriting Contest

Ooh, I'm worried about "Fighter" for Jordin. I can see it sounding a little pitchy... and I don't like that song, LoL. Hopefully she'll surprise me! It's also a bad idea, IMO, to try and tackle a Christina Aguilera song, because you just can't rival Christina's vocals and runs. When Katharine McPhee did one of Christina's songs, it sounded EMBARASSINGLY bad.
