Really, the forum lacks morals because I can say fuck istead of ****. Everyone knows what's being said behind the censors, and it's not like anyone here is being overly vulgar anyways. Don't really think that's a major concern.

The censoring stopped some time ago and so did the minimum characters. Don't confuse the freedom for us to develop and display morals with us being censored. I'm sure if I launched a viscious attack full of swearing, I would be editted and then some.

A man curses when he doesn't have the words to speak what's on his mind.

If it's a "sick fraternity", you're a part of it. The problem is that it seems like it could, potentially increase the amount of spam. As things have gone so far, I don't mind. Seems to be bringing in nice folks.

From what I understand though, it's less people posting without signing up, and just a problem with certain new accounts, which isn't really a problem (unless you're them).

So if it said **** instead of a curse, that would make it speaking your mind again? You may dislike cursing, but the reality is it was happening with or without a censor.

Yeah, I can definitely understand the whole spam thing but you can kinda see it as soon as it arrives in the "BUY VIAGRA" threads. For the most part they don't bother me cause' I have seen quite a few non-posters who aren't that bad. Also, don't you have to sign up in the first place in order to start posting?

Completely untrue.

Yeah, the misconception is that there are a few people who are popping up postng with no post-count and no profile. People assumed these were people allowed to post without registering. I believe it's actually just people who are having account troubles though.
