That's not very nice. And untrue, to boot.

EDIT: The amusement factor here is that, despite the thread's monumental derailment, if it's locked the Nazi jibes will come out again.

EDIT: Who were you on GR, anyway, Charles?

It even features a direct link. Okay, YouStrip isn't technically a hardcore porn site, but they still get their boobs out.



I mean you can't fault her...

However, just putting a standard "www" and ".com" around the names leads to some of them - which is essentially advertising specific porn sites.

That's quite different from posting "dirty boys", which won't lead you to a specific URL that you can work out from what's in the post.

I don't think that things such as bannings or the running of the forum should be put to public vote, because then it creates uncertainty and divisions. Fair enough that some things may be asked of us, but since you all run this place it should be mainly your decision. I can only imagine you mean 'you' in the general sense, and are not directly referring to me.

I just say take action and await the likely backlash. More often than not people only argue a decision (say, about a banning), because they want it to be an exception to the rule, or so it suits themselves. It's easier to defend that than tackle the opinions of people before a decision is made. For example, would your response be different if someone of higher standing in the community said the same thing as me in the same situation? And if DML said what I did, for example, I assume you'd be a hell of a lot more vitriolic. I only say that because if you've already made the decision, it doesn't matter as much, does it?

I apologise for any inappropriate tone, and if you think I'm 'rabble rousing', I'm not.

2. It's a passing comment as opposed to a specific thread about specific porn sites.
3. Thank you for playing. Please try again.

See, this is why I voted no to Eighthours as mod again; not the dodgy decisions or the misplaced superiority, it's the glib little comments.

I just like to pick faults with the authority, no matter what. It makes me feel like I matter, you know?
