The rule is:

I'll delete those posters who outrages others with forbiden words or in any other way. Everybody knows also forbiden themes: religion, sex, drugs. With no words I'll just delete such posters. Hope we understand the meanig of the rule

its about time you woke up.........someone has been using member names here to email me viruses.they used mr charlies name,the ends,harlena.
it maybe that doctor robert is rotwang and he is doing it.
unless alan has sent me three emails.have you allen?
i myself have been a little booger too...but i think someone else named wayne is going overboard...
oh and thanks for popping up boss...how is your wife to be????

I'd like to speak up for Wayne. I do not think there is any malice intended with the way he says things. I know it LOOKS bad sometimes, but I think you have to see behind the words on occasion.

I haven't received any of those viruses...yet (thank God)
As for the new rules, I think we all know the person that's going too far.

Hi PC, no I haven't sent any emails to ANY board members - so if anyone else receives one, can you please forward it to me and I'll investigate further.

Welcome to the ONLY place on the internet where you cannot talk about Sex drugs and REligon!

LOL!!

As long as people are respectful I see nothing wrong with it but then this sure isn't MY forum so whatever the rules are goes.

Is there anyone who shares my view about Wayne? I would hate to see him banned or shunned, when he dosn't deserve it and means well.

Perhaps I feel empathy with Wayne, as he likes long legs ... and that I've got!

It depends.I don't know if you saw what he did. The other day for example he made at least ten topics (yes, ten topics I'm not kidding)in less than five minutes in the 'Different Conversations' forum and the topics were like: "Do you prefer fried chicken or grilled chicken", "Do you prefer cars or bikes"... and other stupids topics that kicked out many good topics to the second page. Thankfully a mod or Dmitry saw what was going on and erased all those topics.
I don't think Wayne should be banned right now; but, if he keeps flooding the forums like he did the other day, some measures have to be taken.

"Do you prefer cars or bikes?" <<< I never saw that topic! lol. I did see the chicken one though.

I don't see anything wrong with talking about sex, drugs or religion in the Different Conversations. If someone doesn't like it then it would be best not to post on that thread. However, it does get really annoying and tiresome when the same topic keeps appearing over and over and over and over...

Well, I'm glad dmitry has clarified his position.  Using the forums to browbeat people with your opinions is wrong.  But mentioning these things in a non-offensive way should be allowed.  Thanks, dmitry!

As to Wayne, we've -all- been put on notice.  I don't think he should be banned unless he continues to post the way he was.  He actually started some very good threads that got people talking, many about the Beatles.  I think we're -all- valuable components of this place, and we'll all make mistakes occasionally.  We need Wayne as much as anyone.

However, I'd -much- rather get back to talking about Maria's long legs!!!! 

In one of the forums I moderate we have a topic called The 9 Hells.  This is a topic where ANYTHING can be talked about and nothing at all can be moderated (Except if there is spamming) There is a warning though saying that if you find things offensive then you should not read the threads.  If people get upset over the threads in 9 Hells then it is their own fault.

Sounds like Wayne found his woman too.

Sounds like it could get pretty brutal.
I am in unmoderated newsgroups and often it de-evolves into the nastiest sort of crud.  And yes, I have been a participant, and no, I'm not proud of it. 

I kind of like the lighter touch here...the ability to more or less say what you want but being able to pull back when one starts getting over the top.  So far everyone seems to be able to discipline themselves with only one or two exceptions.

Just suggesting it for those who feel the urge to go into graphic details about sex etc.

Why would they need to do that here?  Aren't there ample other places online to do that sort of thing?

We should be free to frankly discuss things that come up of course within our usual conversations, but to specifically (like Wayne's legs fetish) start or post explicit things I would think just wouldn't belong.

Still, it's not a bad idea to maybe have SOME corner where 'anything goes'.

Dear god, I'm done with suggestions.

Well, I am certainly not putting you or the suggestion down.  Hell, I have nothing to do with this stuff.  I was just making conversation about it.

Well obviously theres a mod that thinks they can lock and delete everything...so maybe a 9 hells folder would be a good place to stop that. 

Maybe.

It would be nice if someone else piped up in this little back and forth...I feel naked!

Don't you see we are running out of people to pipe up?

YES!

Everything was so great here (so I thought) even tho I'm only a babe here (nice to be just a babe SOMEwhere at my age!) I thought it was a great mix of personalities.  I really enjoyed being here.

More defections and I'll probably join them myself...what's the point otherwise?  You need a lot of voices to make a community, not just one or two.  Damn.  I'll really miss this place.

Well I'll pipe up and say that I don't ever want to be a mod because certain people hate me here, and they always seem to find some snide remark to say.

Well if your too scared too chicken to even post under your own name then you deserve to be hated.

I happen to think we DO still have a great little forum here! Am I the only one who thinks that?

Me neither! At least we're happy!!!

I understand people getting cheesed occasionally or fed up with certain other people.  We all need a break to cool off now and then.  It just seemed like a massive exodus! 

There is nothing worse than getting cheesed - especially when it's an unexpected attack!! LOL

Sure there is.  When it's a HARD cheese. 

God yeah! That is SO the worst kind... apart from cauliflower cheese!

I'm the one that's been picked on continously on this forum for some reason even though I'm a dedicated Beatles fan & rock fan in general while I haven't been that graphic to begin with because I like beautiful women with long legs & sexy feet but I know what you're talking about. 

yeah wayne you take it like a trooper.actually there is a secret wayne l fan club operating here......

Come back Anna!

If you deleted your name and now going to cry that you did then that is your own fault. I'm sorry but that was a really dumb thing to do.  I hope you come back and post but dont complain because you threw a tantrum and deleted your name.
