Rules exist to be enforced
Actually, rules exist to be broken. The weak are punished for breaking them. The strong are applauded for finding loopholes to circumvent them. Or they simply change the rules.
You can have just as much fun and display
even more strength in exercising one's cunning, resolve, and restraint by playing with the lines but not being a punck and blatantly stepping across just to get a cheap
HUZZAH! from the Rebel Gallery.
That is called exercising one's stupidity, not embarking upon an Honorable Crusade against oppression. There IS NO FUCKING OPPRESSION HERE. BigFan is more than accommodating to us fucks, a fact that has been well-established. Fuck, he's even offering to appoint one of us as President!
It's ironic that you speak up, Joe, because IMO you are one of the very BEST examples of this, as you are edgy as fuck, biting, and informative, yet at times extremely hard-hitting, etc, but all within the rules.
I don't recall you ever trespassing, and if you did, you didn't make a habit of it.
I wasn't really referencing the board, Panther.
But I suspect I see the board as more of a two-way street than you do. Sure, bigfan can do whatever he wants. But if it drives users away, I'm not sure what the point would be. He doesn't have to maintain the board if it's a pain in his ass. He could just shut it down. And he doesn't strike me as the sort of guy who would do so simply to fuck with people. I don't consider the board to be over-moderated in a general sense, but I do think some deletions have been less than positive. But you know, I simply take the board as I find it. I don't complain about what anyone else here does. I read what I want, ignore what I want without using the ignore feature. I'm free to leave at any time. KS might become president and make the only sections Taylor Swift and Tesla and I'd be gone. It is what it is.
