| Okay so I don't think anyone gives a shit about SmackDown I am guessing but this week, Ric Flair told Natayla to kill herself and that was edited out from the program when it was published. Wasn't sure whether to post it on EAW or general but really, there were two questions I wanted to ask y'all...
1. Did you think Ric crossed the line?
2. If someone like Demon used that (because he is a great example of a heel and the shit he says is quality so let's use that) on our promo page, since EAW is a bit more extreme and tends to cross the line, do you think it shouldn't be a problem even if the user acknowledges that it is a fictional usage or do you think EAW also has a line they should never cross?
P.S: I don't want a full blown argument to consume this thread, this is not about who is right or who is wrong. I say that because of an incident that occurred last year so yeah |

| It depends.. I think he crossed the PG line for sure. But I'm not fond of suicide jokes so I'd say yes. |

| It crossed the PG line, for sure, but Punk used to tell fans to kill themselves in IWA:MS all the time.
I don't know though. I, for one, am not offended when someone uses a "kill yourself LOL" joke...mainly disappointed that the person saying it couldn't think of anything else.
And in the case of Demon, I fully expect the "Dark Demon" character to say that to someone as he's a brash, cocky heel that will do and say anything. |

| I'd say there is no line in a fictional show. That's like writing a book where a character in the book tells another character to kill themself. It's just making Flair look worse, like it's suppose to. |
