"well, this isn't exactly covered, or this is different" Plus, there are many things that we have probably not even seen or run across yet that would be against the rules.

    So the key rules are to use common sense... and more importantly, follow mod instructions. "

    Restating what Ming says, a new form of spam
    I can't help it if Ming agrees with me.

        I'm sure they come in handy.

        Ming: I'm banning you Skanky Burns
        Skanky: Really? Why?
        Ming: You are about to spam *even more* than usual
        Skanky: I vote that that is unfair
        Ming: 'Poly is not a democracy! Enjoy your trip to Mingapulco.

        Case closed.

                  I suggest all the rules be scrapped and replaced with 2 simple rules:
                  1. Common Sense.
                  2. Ming.

                            Now your analogy rapidly breaks down.

                                hehe well said indeed

                                on the topic though, it is with welcome relief that as a father, I know that this site is safe for my little ones to wander through and enjoy..

                                ok, so maybe they are not all that welcome in hangman with their illogical guesses, even if they have won several rounds and I must admit they have been duely warned to stay out of the OT, as it can be a strange and bizzare place even for the most experienced of gamer

                                the way this family site is set up and looked over is good value, and in this day and age, where any search engine can bring forth porn in so many ways, I be glad Apolyton stands strong

                                yes the rules may be a tad obscure, yet it is all pretty plain to see that this be a family friendly community
