Looks perfectly reasonable to me. By joining, you are placing your trust in the admins that they will not abuse their power, which they have never done. This is just like on any forum.

That's the thing, I really don't. I tend to go for forums that don't have "we can screw you over how we like" in the rules. I like admins to give me a reason to trust in them, otherwise it just looks like they're covering something up(Which they nearly always are; a lack of skill at being admins).

Because you shouldn't need to fall back on "Just do what we say". When they do what they have to, it should be blatant that they're doing so and they shouldn't need to have to do things without being questioned.

But you get those rule benders anyway. I've been on several forums where the mods have actually even recognised this, and refused to do anything about it.

It would be much better to have a rule AGAINST that sort of thing, because most people can identify it easily.

A rule against what? A rule against bending the rules?

Isn't that kind of self-evidently ridiculous?

Any more than "No matter what we do, it's right"? Something like "There may be certain grey areas where other kinds of disruptive behaviour not in the rules come into play."

Some boards don't even have rules, just "Behave and be nice".

C Rose: Well, if you are looking for a board where you can just call TBC stoners who don't give a crap about their fans without upsetting H*R fans...


...this one is not the one.

Ok ive read most of the topic and ill comment on all o' it.

About TBC being stoned while making toons or whatever.. Just because they're funny and come up with good jokes and stupid crap sometimes dosent mean theyre on drugs. It means they have a great imagination. I know quite a few people that just are really funny and are so imaginative.. that arent on drugs lol.

And about what age range H*R is towards.. I think it started to be for guys like TBC's age but it grew and its for much wider range of people now. All the H*R fans i know are 12-16.

And about talking about like, drugs and all that crap, Ok, im 14 and i dont mind talking about that stuff. Teens these days are informed on all that stuff just from going to school that im sure unless the people are like 10 years old, most wont care. And really if you did want to make a specefic forum about it you could make a subforum that requires a password or something. It wouldnt make a real difference if you did that or made a new forum since (last time i checked) you can make subforums in subforums.

I think i got everything..

Well, Rosalie, due to your refusal to answer my question, I can only assume your reason for starting this thread is once again, just for arguing.

i am the walrus, i am the cakeman.

too true. make your oun forum if all u want to talk about is insulting things. you said u cant talk about the characters in this forum... waht cant you discuss? do u want to talk about and 's sex life?

In conclusion. we at the forum can talk about anythihng that isnt gross or just wrong.

Also, not discussing HR & marzi's sex life is something I can live without. I would rather discuss the fact that there are loads of drug references within HR and what they mean and what they are tied to. Discussing deeper meaning without having to answer stupid questions are hear denials like "TBC are not druggies..." Stoners are not druggies... I don't care what people say, but marijuana isn't harmful. You can't like Pink Floyd or The Beatles and say that weed is bad. That's just plain stupid.

Plus, the censorship restrictions are just that... restricting. I don't think I should get reprimanded for mild use of the words s---, d---, h---, a--, a--h---, f---, b---- etc... without worring about some 10 year old crying for their mother. Besides, most 10 year olds won't understand fully some of the connotations of what is in HR. Sure, TBC made is accessible to all by having absurdity mixed with intelligent humor, but I'd rather talk about some of this with people who are closer to my age so I don't have to worry about some child crying to an admin and me getting banned because the content of my post would be considered too explicit or offensive.

I can feel it in my bones. Someone's going to start talking about freedom of speech soon. Then it'll be all downhill. I reserve the right to invoke Godwin's law.
