Weirdo

So many run challenges this month..

Has anyone used the Strava training plans before? I'm interested, but I fucking WISH they would let you have a gander before starting one... what do you need to have? how time consuming are they? do you need to be near the segment / climb you're training on? so many QUESTIONS!

Anyone know why with power strava says average undefined?

Too much power?! You broke strava.

I wish. Need a lot more power.

God dam you Strava....Garmin shows 121km rode, Strava 119.9 no Grand Fondo for me.

Am I being oversensitive here, or is the use of word 'Rape' in the title of a Strava segment pretty gross? Strava support don't see it as a problem.

What was their response?

nope

Strava support don't see it as a problem

of course they don't http://notapattern.net/2014/10/14/ways-men-in-tech-are-unintentionally-sexist/

Right, thanks. Glad it's not just me. They just said it wasn't against their ToS.

Here's the link, in case anyone else fancies reporting it.

They just said it wasn't against their ToS.

This, I assume, is the personal opinion of the support rep who looked at your request. This is in their actual ToS:

You agree to not use the Site to: (a) upload, post, email, transmit or otherwise make available any Content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable;

Is the casual use of "rape" vulgar, obscene, or otherwise objectionable? It kind of comes down to the opinion of the viewer of the material. Teh rep says "no", I say "yeah", but then I also have lots of segments uploaded with sweary titles that some people (nobody on here I imagine) might also find objectionable. There's no list of specific terms and phrases to use as a guide, and there probably never could be.

I suspect this will ultimately come down to what Strava sense that their users will tolerate, much like the progression of this here cycling board from being a sexist shithouse to a reasonably pleasant place in the last 6 years or so. But Strava has lots of users from bikeradar, singletrackworld, and that time trialing forum, so I wouldn't hold your breath.

Is the casual use of "rape" vulgar, obscene, or otherwise objectionable?

Yeah, I'd say so. I see what you're saying. I'm just pleased that this forum, as many other issues as it may have, doesn't take none of that sexism nonsense. I might post this on BR as well, just to see what happens. They'll all throw their 'fat lads at the back' jerseys at me in disgust.

How do you go about reporting it?

Ta!

I'd says we still got a long way to go.

Better, cheer!

.

People do regularly get called out for it though, which is more than happens on other cycling forums.

If you want to be pedantic.. there's another definition from Oxford dictionary ...

And how does that not also describe an act of violence on people?

Also reported it.

A whirlwind isn't a place though, so that can't apply.

Shitty spelling of "Reap the whirlwind?"
