That's a joke, based on the rarity of Alt. Tracks. 202.7.183.131 04:34, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
What about a Gay Transformers Catagory? There's probably enough to warrent one, Shockfleet, BWII Starscream, BB etc. etc. X-BoB58 19:47, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
But Tracks isn't gay...I mean, TFs don't have sex anyway. Maybe my bio notes of his massive powers and handsome styling were unclear...*confused* Autobus Prime 20:04, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- Categorically, NO! There is no official basis for "gay" Transformers, and the topic is beyond the appropriate purpose of this Wiki.--G.B. Blackrock 21:04, 8 May 2006 (UTC) (P.S. The reference to Raul doesn't belong in the main bio, either. It belongs in the "Animated Continuity" section.)
- Point conceded. I blame a.t.t. for warping my mind... --Autobus Prime 21:24, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- Frankly I think all the of innuendo in that bio should be removed. --KilMichaelMcC 22:12, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- Aw. I'm a *huge* fan of it. And it's technically not breaking any rules... --ItsWalky 22:34, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- The problem I have is that "gay Tracks" is a fandom construct. I am certainly guilty of using the concept to make jokes, but the character doesn't actually ever demonstrate romantic interest in other male characters. A page full innuendo to that effect stikes me as misleading. But, that's just my opinion. --KilMichaelMcC 22:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- See, the entry is no more gay than Tracks is. He's never said to be, but he sure acts like it. In that way, this write-up is completely accurate. --ItsWalky 23:52, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not too concerned about what's there. If it's not clearly a fan-construct, I'll not raise a huge fuss. But it is indeed full of innuendo that may not be appropriate. For example:

- "well-endowed with a sleek, muscular, and tastefully decorated..."
- "He is able to launch two flaming incendiary missiles from long and durable launcher tubes."
- "embracing his enemies in darkness, unaware of the Autobot until he strikes from behind, and leaves them moaning on the cold ground!"
- "Tracks can also fly like a butterfly by deploying his secret, hidden wings from their protective closet."
- You get the idea. Technically accurate, but purposedly written in such a way as to play up the "gayness" of it all. I don't think it's cool.--G.B. Blackrock 00:02, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
