With the caveat against pornography and similar NSFW imagery, of course. But that ought to be basic common sense, you'd think.

As for the OP: if anyone has a problem with any member's post that they feel breaches the rules, it is their duty to report it. That said, it's in your interest to exercise a bit of that common sense. Think of that report button as making a call to the police - they wouldn't object to being alerted about anything from major violent crime down to a cat stuck up a tree. But it might not go the way you expect if you continually complain about someone looking at you funny or whispering behind your back.

We don't really have all that many rules, most of it is just basic netiquette and mutual courtesy as members of a community; which makes it all the more reasonable to become familiar with the rules that we do have. Bottom line - if you want to be shown some basic respect, try being basically respectable.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I know you're used to old skool, but in this common era, 2011 comes before 2012. Tongue

OK.

To paraphrase LP, "Don't put me in that ugly orange."

Yep, what FNM said. Its a personal taste. I could change it between orange and this blue, I prefer blue.

As to the OP: You don't like insults? You're in for a real treat on this forum! Big Grin

Do be kind to the staff and heed their counsel.

All the others are abnormal? Angel
yes.
Admins, mods, retirees, donators and banned... all abnormal! Tongue

Slight correction. The "no pornography" rule applies to avatars as much as it applies to posts. Same goes for gore, etc.

RE: People here are insulting me.
When I was new I remember being called "nasty" several times. Apparently referencing sausages and melons was distasteful. Instead of crying about it I took it upon myself to make it my motto. Nasty can be fun! I love bacon and I'm ne-yas-tee! Hell yeah!
Pointing around: "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, fuck you, I'm out!"

Nah, I probably can't do that at least until I retire. Then watch out.
