Title: Again with "rules".
Post by: Bricktop on February 04, 2017, 02:15:27 AM
"Personal attacks and insults and slurs are not allowed - unwarranted derails not allowed..



Topic titles shall be free of personal attacks, profanities, slurs..



infringements to these rules are subject to being dealt with by mods."



How can any mod possibly enforce these silly policies?



And why do you feel the need (unnecessarily, I might add) to lock these announcements. Are you afraid people will dissent in this PRIVATE forum?

That's me gone.



I can voice an opinion and people think I'm attacking someone when I'm not.

It's people like you that make us have rules like these.

Alternatively one can say it's people like you who seek to shut down free speech and blurry the lines of earnestness because you can't handle challenge or dissenting opinions.

I love watching North Americans flock to base level sarcasm because their minds aren't evolved enough to do anything else.  :smiley_thumbs_up_yellow_ani:

Utterly and completely silly.



The members here are adults. They should be free to behave as children should they so choose.

I like a forum that warns members not to attack anyone by insults and slurs. Although I have no part in asking for this rule, I welcome it. I'll be careful not to call anyone a dimwit, asshole, jerk or jackass. I take no pleasure in doing so anyway. On second thought, I sometimes do when the situation calls for it. ac_toofunny

Fuck's sake...this is a WEB forum. If you cannot take a bit of heat from time to time, get the fuck out and watch your daytime soaps.



Jesus wept...



Sticks and stones, kiddies. Sticks and stones.

I don't care WHO'S posts "they" are worried about.



Some discussions WILL get willing, and pit peoples beliefs, views and ideological preferences against others. So what?



You get called a name.



Boo fucking hoo.



If you wish to avoid robust and sometimes willing exchanges, stay the fuck out of the controversial threads. If you make a comment, expect that someone may take an opposite view. If they resort to personal abuse, then its THEIR message and credibility that takes the hit, not YOURS.



Grow up.
