Basically anything would go except for pornography or extreme images?

'Seems reject rodeo, firewalkers and guest posting are more or less the same thing, so they should be merged into one subforum instead of 3. But if the mods still want the 3 separate divisions then make them as 3 separate threads within the merged subforum. This would free up space in the forum for other endeavors.



There's too many subforums too similar to one another and this makes the forum

 sprawl too much.

Thank you for your thoughts on this JOE.

I thought it already was a "free for all" of sorts.



I was under the impression that this sub forum was a place to dump unruly posters that either could not abide by the rules or had become a chronic problem. It was also my impression that any poster who was corralled in here could do as they please to a limited extent anyway.



Truth be told, unless you have been labeled a forum criminal nuisance, I have no idea why anyone would even want to post in this sub. Voluntarily posting in this forum is counter to it's purpose.  ac_dunno

I know, some people just need to fill their time online with butt hurt drama and acrimony. Those are the kind that need to kept in a place like this. We had one particular Aussie that was like that until we got rid of her/his unnecessary dribble.



Now he/she just parks it's full of shit, pseudo intellectual, ass in VF, crying about how badly he/she was treated and how awful we are over here at every chance it gets. It also still lurks here almost daily despite the fact that it claims to be completely done with this place.  :laugh3:

Hello Watson and welcome.

Forums have changed a lot. It's difficult if not impossible in late 2015 to keep a large group of like minded people together and posting regularly. To survive in the Twitter age and even grow a bit, allowing people and their posts you don't like to post at least in a segregated area might be the only way.

I don't subscribe to this attitude that you need to allow people to shit up your board to stay going.  Those left are tired of having to wade through so much shit just to find a decent conversation.



I agree with having a space where things can get a little more wild but I don't believe in having some disgusting free for all.  Not only is it gross, there are legal implications to not moderating certain garbage.

I'm new here. So far everything seems as it should for a group of posters on the internet who probably will never meet me in person, or anyone else here. Brings the best and worst out in people. Please please. No need to read anything into this. It's as literal as I thought it. No hidden meaning. OK? No need to change anything in my opinion.

I thought Joe's idea was interesting. Combine the three threads and let posters do as they please.
