I like this board and always have. Of all the posters I interacted with on BN it was Zig. Always found him to be smart, funny and considerate of others. When they started crap with him I came over here though I stopped at Ala's other site first.
I enjoy this place and interacting with you all. Sometimes we can cross the line (why I don't know) but we do. Sometimes it appears we have things go on in our personal lives and we come here to vent (remember the MSU fan who was pretty cool then seemed to lose it) (I forgot his name)  Always thought Zig and Sparky were about as fair as you can be.
Since my hiatus I see Bonebuck is here, and just found out James Wright is not posting here.
Does Va still stop by? who was the old MSU fan (never posted here though)? Also who was the leo that would post was that bb17?
Did Mr. November ever find us? I see Jman is still her but what happened to the other J poster (maybe Jmar?)

Tits or GTFO.
Rule number one prohibits personal attacks. So obviously they are not universally enforced. That rule alone proves that the rules only exist as an excuse to ban people that disrupt the chamber. So you can still post pictures of scantily clad women, it's all good. I can't, but lrrps had already pretty much shamed me out of it by ranking them all as a 1.5 out of 10. I hardly ever posted such pictures during my final year here, which makes the fact that they felt a need to make up a new rule just bizarre. Especially since it is just part of a long "Don't be Brutus" rule that was implemented in the aftermath of a permaban. Who da Hell else is going to post pictures of scantily clad women along with Planet of the Apes screenshots? Even on the off chance that my doppelganger did find his way here and start posting such things, he would immediately be shown the door after being mistaken as me.

Come on Brutus. We have interacted before on the old board. I like when you post. Let this go and have some fun. And yes I fit the demographics you described (except not a Protest and or a pub) but as I age I am more of a conservative.

I did make a new account or two simply so that I could read the site. I had no intention of posting under those accounts, but the board was so butt hurt about my unpopular opinion that banning me from posting wasn't enough and I had to be locked out entirely. Fine, I went and found a new time waster. No big deal.Â
I'm all for letting bygones be bygones, but I had to straighten out this narrative that I was banned for posting a picture of an ape and calling it the N-word. I was banned for my opinion regarding blacks and their apologists and wiggers.Â
Unpopular opinion? Hell yes. But it is indeed my opinion, based on my own observations and experiences, and I was banned simply for having that opinion. If you want to ban me for having it, fine. It is your house. But when you broadcast that this is a place that is tolerant of all opinions, that is simply not true.Â
To paraphrase Ben Shapiro, popular speech doesn't need to be protected. It is popular speech. If unpopular speech isn't protected, then we don't have freedom of speech. We don't here, and that's fine. Just be honest about it.

Again, who owes you a damn thing? Instead of being grateful to be allowed back you come here and complain about the length and so forth....let it go Utah boy. We get it.

There are things that I say that people mock. That people intentionally misunderstand. Opinions and beliefs and values. In fact theyâ€ve been mocked tonight.....by the person kicking up all the fuss...
I bet most people could say the same thing.
Yet only a few give it but can not take it. They want to wax eloquent but not be challenged.

Random, unsolicited chime in here, but it sounds as though the air has been cleared. I say we go back to doing what we do best -- solving the world's problems. Â
Alright, good talk. I'll see ya out there.

I just quickly skimmed through this thread and saw that there was some sort of rule against scantily clad women, and it was instigated by you? I don't even care if that conversation was meant as a joke. Zig, if anyone is angling for a nice little time out here it's Ala. I think a nice 24 hour ban will give himself some time to reflect and think about what he either actually did here or even had the audacity to even joke about. Â
I have to say, as I sit here and type I am shocked and appalled that this may have actually even been considered as a rule. Â

Yeah man, I'm good. It is not as though I have been jumping up and down posting about this endlessly since I have been back. In fact I haven't said a word about it. But we all know why this thread got bumped. There is an elephant in the room. So I figured I might as well "clear the air" as you put it.Â
Cheers,

Virginia has been missing for a LONG time, sadly.
