I think people should be allowed to be as disagreeable as they wish. If I think you're a cunt I should be able to tell you and if you continue to be a cunt I should be allowed to tell you you're a stupid cunt and you should fuck off. And so on an so forth.
Making threats (including telling someone to kill themselves even when you don't mean it literally) shouldn't be allowed but the whole "anti-flame" thing is taken too far sometimes in my humble opinion.
But then that's just what I think and not necesarrily relevant I just figured I'm on a roll tonight. Lol. :p
Anywho doesn't matter much to me. I hardly ever have the desire to flame someone and when I do, they're usually banned before they have a chance to cross the line far enough for me to actually insult them. I prefer to love people. And treat them with kindness and respect whenever possible. I just think if other people want to be mean, they should be allowed to so long as they don't use threats or violent/threatening language. But again disregard this post because it doesn't matter what I think.
The most important thing to remember on a forum is to try to skate this side of the line when it comes to rules. Either that or make enough sexual advances towards mods/admins that you have wiggle room hehe :p
I think all this rebellion has gone to my head tonight. Just ignore me.
In fairness losty I think you're allowed to do that. You can call someone a cunt if you think they're a cunt. The only problems occur when shit starts getting a bit too heated to the point that threats are being made and/or threads start to become massively derailed. Nobody really wants that which is pretty much the only reason staff will get involved in such issues.
Just another of my two cents anyway, I'm being just as bad in derailing this thread so I'll say no more.

In my own defence, I wasn't referring to being allowed to do things; more the manner in which one approaches doing them.
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.'

You catch more flies with honey, than with vinegar, well, at least that's what they say. Never really tried that.

I have, literally, and it's bollocks. Flies like honey, sure, but they go apeshit for vinegar to the point of drowning in it. Quite what that says about their intelligence compared with that of humans I couldn't possibly comment.

What grinds my gears, when I'm stressed out and feeling rebellious because of another forum.
When I say to ignore me and Napoleon mistakenly only ignores the part about ignoring me. :p
I'm back to feeling sweet today. I'm going to avoid the drama for a bit.
