This is different than other forums.
Try not to compare.
My best advice when you enter this shithole is to forget about the rtm button and pay no attention to the insults.
Remember an insult from a political imbecile is actually a compliment.
lustylad is always complimenting me.

your insults ..
I know it is different, but I did think there was some level of moderation. There used to be. Bambino rtm'd one of my posts where I used an arguably endearing turn-of-phrase describing his handle (that I had seen you use), and I got a warning from the Moderator. That shit was Hickory Dickory Dock compared to the vile insults I see hurled at others, hourly on this Forum.
Hard to figure the Moderators out. I can't even post the name I was warned about, because I may get 5 points levied in the next hour. I got 10 points once, for posting an innocent pic of a girl in a flower-filled Meadow. Yet I've seen plenty of child porn references in this Forum.

this forum at the moment has no dedicated mod unless we're all dumb enough to think Wakeup is still "on the job". so no one is checking regularly on the forum. clearly some mod or admin does check but it's irregular.
one of the reasons CryptKicker quit is he posted that the admin's were telling him he wasn't giving out enough infractions. yeah not enough. didn't know that being a mod was like being a traffic cop where your Sargent gets on yer ass for not writing enough traffic tickets.
while i'm at it the mod squad has always been uneven on how they judge certain things. some things are clear and any mod would issue an infraction but you mentioned the child pic. i once got pointed 10 for a cartoon image with a kid in it too.
let's back up a bit and mention the rule on that does NOT ban all images of children on the site. says so here ..
#10 - Topics regarding children, and
certain images depicting children are not material for an adult-themed board. You must be at least 18 years of age to register and participate here, and along those lines, our subject matter is to surround individuals of the proper age range. Any mention or reference to underage sex is strictly forbidden and may result in loss of your posting privileges.
does not say no images at all. yet some mods claim that's the "rule" no images at all. the rule is supposed to be subjective. clearly to prevent anything of a sexually suggestive nature.
for that matter the site shouldn't allow threads about the school shootings, any of them because the victims were children. you could argue it's a news event and apparently the site allows discussion because its a news event. but by the rule above it shouldn't be allowed.
