Yeah, I suppose it always sounds like it could be amusing...but at some point I realize that I don't have the energy.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom.

You know, given the sheer number and scope of rules they have at RR it makes me wonder if it's possible to post there at all without getting banned.
It occurred to me that if I weren't on staff here, that it might be fun to see who could make the most subtle introduction post that results in a ban.
Of course, it would be unseemly for me to do so, so I'm not actually suggesting any such thing.
...or am I?

Rapture Ready forums has stricter rules than Bob Jones University.

I've heard of Civfanatics. I've lurked there for like ten years.

Hi, new guy! I'm impressed that you made it to five posts there, actually. Probably makes you a veteran poster or something.

Well, I have a poe friend who'd love to have a crack at it. Maybe if I he can find the time/be arsed, he'll get the chance. I only really know of the place via FSTDT so he'll have to play a very high game to stay in the running. It's not known as Ruptured Retards for nothing.

Oh I have no doubt it would be easy to get a one-post ban - perhaps merely by being yourself. Hell, you can get a first-post ban here if you set out to do it.
The subtlety is in demonstrating the sheer unreasonableness of their rules - you can't look like you're rooting for a ban while you're, well, rooting for a ban. Whomever looks like they're rooting for a ban least wins. 
...or they would, were I suggesting that such a thing should be done, which of course, I am not.

Just thinking the same thing. Maybe it's time I found a good Christian forum and started schooling them on what the Bible says.

A good Christian forum? Or a "Good Christian" forum? Either way, I fear they may be a little thin on the ground.
