"Seriously Skuzzy, you’ve got to realize that we all have vastly different opinions on what is appropriate/trolling/common sense, etc.
Many folks make posts that get edited and they had no idea that they were pushing limits.

I have to say I agree
( by the way will someone explain how to quote properly I still can't get it!
)
Rules is rules is rules.
Its how they are interpreted that is the issue. The problem is that what one person considers a troll, in bad taste, profanity, and so on another might not. The issue becomes even more complex when you take into account the different nationalities in here and their differing cultural norms.
I honestly don't know how you get round that. But I think Skuzzy is right that some consitency in applying rules is realy important.
If this thing is to survive and grow and continue to be an interesting bit of cyberspace, then we all have develop a bit of live and let live mentality. Sometimes things are controversial. Sometimes people might get a bit upset, let of steam or curse it usualy blows over its what real life is like! By all means the curse words could be blotted but ultimately I would say If you don't like a post don't respond. Let it die. I hate to say it but this place is in danger of become some boring place where we only ever make online platitudes or talk about stuff that is real dull or just make silly quips. I actualy don't think it was that broke before it shut down. ( though I was away for a couple of weeks when the poop realy hit the fan so I could be wrong there.)
please people we are adults can we be allowed to continue as such. Can't we be allowed to get angry, laugh, argue about serious issues, get fed up with each other smooth over the cracks find common ground or agree to disagree. Don't moderate this place into total mediocrity.
(discalimer, this is not intended as an attempt to backseat moderate. It is a genuine attempt to discuss the OC.
