[split] Discussion About Potential Rule Change and Staff Action

RE: [split] Discussion About Potential Rule Change and Staff Action

Derailing every thread you can to one particular subject isn't just undeniably disruptive, its an imposition on everyone involved.

That would be me. And yes, it is almost always related to some shallow vice.

I don't deny its disruption or imposition. I do it because we need a little eruption of excitement now and again, and to do that you must be in position.

Quote:If I ever decide to highjack 7+ threads in a row to a lengthy discussion on boobs you have my full backing in condemning me. You'd be hardpressed to find people who'd done any such thing because most people understand that this isn't a forum where we discuss just one subject all day, everyday.

Funfact... we discuss pretty much just one subject all day, every day. Find me a thread that hasn't yet had a sexual reference put into it, that isn't locked... and I will add one for sake of consistency.

Quote:In shoving other subjects to one side he silences any new discussion that could have emerged, instead we are forced to read the same tired rant over and over.

* Violet has only one regular rant. The few others would be the harmony to the song.

Quote:I think the subjects discussed in these threads deserve more consideration than to be shunted aside by one mans see-through agenda with an audacity that borders on a contempt for new ideas. That is my objection and it is a valid one.

I've heard of see-through bras, panties, shirts, and glass... but I've never heard of a see-through agenda before. This I've gotta see... through Tiger

What is a valid objection? That sounds much like an invalid proposal to me. There is no such being as 'no'! Angel
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
