Is This Place Safe for Adults?

[cherryfunk]

Right, so here's the story. There was a forum, and it was moderated by, well, to be politically correct I'll say "young uns." Lil' people. Those of not-so-great sophistication.

And these wee folk, well, they didn't like certain subjects to be discussed in their wee forum.

The didn't like, for example, the bad topic of dr*gs to be mentioned. In any context. And God knows we couldn't raise s*x there either, they got all nervous and panicky. (At least in part, methinks, cause they didn't want to admit that they knew very little about that topic.)

But, in the midst of all that, many interesting discussions were had by the more mature of us, and, having butted heads with the King of the Wee Folk one too many times, and yet finding myself missing those intruiging discussions, I have looked and asked around and ended up here, on your shores.

And so, a quick question to those of you who hang here regularly: is this a safe place for adults?

We don't like potty talk or naughty words here, either.
And you can't discuss anything but the Missionary position if Ming is around.

LOL! Yes, it is fine. You can talk about drugs and the drug war and some about sex (but not explicit).

Welcome to Apolyton, Cherry!

[cherryfunk]

So what's the difference between Apolyton and Off Topic?

So many rules... and the colored lights, hurts my brain... everything going fuzzy...

Ming (the mericiless) feels that something should not go onto OT if is on topic on any of the other forums. This forum, Apolyton, is for dicusees the site, the forums, rules, procedures, etc, and for nagging the hell of MarkG & DanQ.
Ming is very quick on the trigger against topics with a risk of flame war, his anti-spam activities are variable.

Ming does a great job!

But he should kick butt more

Fun threads are an endangered species at the moment. OTOH, you can post almost any kind of mindless drivel in the form of a supposedly serious discussion and it won't be interfered with.

Btw Cherry, whose DL are you?

I see AH is picking on poor FerryChunk already. What a mean bugger!

[cherryfunk]

AH (cool name, by the way. Alexander did have a favorite horse, big white thing.)

What the hell's a DL?

[red_jon]

A DL is a Donkey Licker. I thought everynoe knew that

No, seriously, a DL is a Double Login (where someone is using 2 usernames at once). I think anyway.
