An everything-goes forum

Why not have a forum where you can say [no], [ocelot], [negro], etc. without getting in trouble? I think it would help concentrate such vulgarities in one section, rather than people letting a [no]-word slip in Socialize or The Recycle Bin and getting probed/banned for it.

Anyone who is offended by these obscenities can just choose not to click on the forum!

Also the forum would keep the trolls and idiots occupied more, therefore other forums will be kept free of spam and sub-par posts.

Who's with me?

Re: An everything-goes forum

Anyone without a brain will be with you I'm guessing. Did you ever stop to think why these words are not allowed? Fuck there's some morons on this forum.

Re: An everything-goes forum

I actually think they should unblock all words, but I think depending on the context one should get probed/banned for it.

On the other hand, I'd like to know why you think anyone should host flaming vulgaraties on their internet forum.

I think someone brought this up before. I'm pretty sure Dan said no because he didn't want to be sued for anything. However, at the bottom of the page it does say:

"all posts © their respective authors. the tool page is not responsible for any of their thoughts, brilliant or otherwise."

I think he also favors kind of a "common decency" type of layout. I suppose this would be to prevent an overload of porn and prejudice that occurs in that kind of setting. I would be nice if we could setup a better guideline system where people don't get banned for undefined rules.

Re: An everything-goes forum

banning is censorship, and the FCC is agaisnt the first ammendment. you can stop it from reaching the so called public wire but not the street.
You think your not racist. Go to jail or live in homeless shelter or stand in a soup line. It wont take long for you to realize that racism cant be avoided. I tried. But now I just say fuckit and fuck them.

Last year the bin was like this for around 10 minutes, I think it was when Dan changed the name to Pala's curry house.

Everyone could be funnier and we'd actually get to know people.

This board doesn't allow people to say the words "f**", "n#%&#*", etc., etc., when these words are used daily in society.

Down with conformity, this board needs to stop pleasing everyone, just let people post like themselves.

Re: An everything-goes forum

Maybe they're trying to keep them out of daily use in society, because words like F** and N***** aren't exactly the most friendly of words.

It would be funnier, but in the most chaotic way imaginable.

This is a private forum. There is no freedom of speech.

There are only priviliges.
