so where does it stand with sexist jokes i mean the taverns full of them, you yourself cat like everyone else has added to them.......

"1. The nice men are ugly.
2. The handsome men are not nice.
3. The handsome and nice men are gay.
4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual men are married.
"

Just seems to me to be very hypocritical of you on the one hand to join in and then on ther other stand back and preach.

who put you in charge of making rules? (this question sounds like im having a go at u its not meant to be like that) Or is this more of a wish list since all these rules to some extent are broken every day?

...as far as I know, the rules haven't changed to any great extent if at all...

...if you want someone to be punished for the slightest thing, that could probably be arranged, but I dunno how much you would all like that..

Great thats it go refine the rules some more ...Then add some more rules, then go refine them some more and at the end of the day ppl will always find the exceptions..

Rules should not be created just to satisfy the idiots (read minority) ..Rules for forums should be guidelines.. The moment you start to define in detail is the moment ppl start looking for :

a. Trangressions
b. Exceptions to avoid them

and at the end of the day is that the sorta place you want to live and hang out......

So yes as has been done above (by someone in a post above i cant remmember their name) You can always find a fault, and the odd person (Odd being the primary descriptor)will attempt to find fault in what is accepted generally as humour or sarcasim

but hey its your forum stuff it with rules if yer feel da need

for my part i think the less rules the better if Mods feel a post is inappropriate they can delete if members do then they can request a deletion...simple use the common sense test

First off, no one is going to actually take the time to read the rules.  Most people actually don't care that much about the rules or this forum to take the time.  Some will read the rules and use them to justify their view points, but still this is just a bulletin board so rules are just so much hopeful thinking.

But we do have mods, and they are appointed to maintain this board, and I for one tend to trust the mods that we do have.  The problem may be that they are too gunshy to pull the trigger on bad/unwanted posts.  They have the power to close and delete threads, and to delete posts.  They need to exercise that power and delete these provocative posts that lead to fights.  If they can delete the posts before the squabbling children can read them then hopefully the bad posters will tire of it and stop their personal attacks.
But at least us regular readers won't be subjected to these pissing matches ruining threads that we happen to enjoy.

As someone has said before me, Post Well! (and try to bring something to the table.)

Well i read the rules and you wait til someone feels put out  over somthing then youll see rules flying from everywhere ....lol

but point taken Mods need not to be gunshy they need to be firm and delete if nessessary and if they get stick over it ban the users simple..

I just love ppls expectation of entitlement to post whatever they like and then bleat if it altered or deleted

Okay..

1) Nobody put me in charge, Arachnid
2) I think it's hilarious how so many people have take offense to part of the Faq (I'm such a good troublemaker.. hehehe)
3) Just posted it as an interesting topic for discuassion (which it has proved to be.. nice to see so many posts from OT)
4) Smile, post well and above all.. if you're happy and you know it and you really wanna show it if you'rehappy and you know it clap your hands (that's the only rule I'd wanna add)

Be good xx
