Subject: RE: BS: Proposal for members only posting of BS?
Christ on a fuckin' crutch Roger, can you really not see the forest for the trees or are you simply a simpleminded asshole?

You can post that same definition of forum forever and it means diddly-squat because this isn't ancient Greece or even 21st century real world. This is the internet and as I and others keep trying to explain to you, "rights' and "freedoms" and "liberties" have fuck all to do with it........nada....zip....zilch....nothing.

Do a head count and it's obvious that you are the lone voice crying in the wilderness and it is you that needs to move on and go set up your utopian forum where all are equal, the women are strong, the men are good looking, and the children are above average.

JOE: I would rather see a completely open forum as Shambles describes for the "Mudcat Music Forum" with free and open posting by Guests and Members alike. No BS threads whatsover and THAT would be the only real "rule." Then set-up the "below-the-line" BS section in what is the generally accepted internet manner: mandatory membership with a couple of fulltime mods with the ability to delete freely with no discussion whatsoever. Frankly Joe, that's a job you couldn't do because you really don't have it in you to be so completely detached as a Mod needs to be, contrary to anything Roger might think. This would eliminate most of the problems with the nastiness in the BS section and make the Music section as much fun as it used to be. The BS section would be a lot mellower as well. The Mudcat Music Forum would retain all of it's needed functions and be the unique place on the net it has always tried to be.
