    That is good to know. It isn't really a big deal.

    When I noticed the site was down, I just went and did something else.

    I really didn't know whether the site would ever come back up. The last forum, I was a member of, went down and never came back up again.

    No notice! No nothing!

    It is interesting to read those reviews. I get their issues. I could be "King" and demand you all follow my version of decorum, but that would be more than I want to do when providing a free service for y'all to vent at each other and share your views. I've struggled... I don't like much of what some folks say, but that is their words and not mine. I'm sure you noticed... I don't curse and would never call somebody by the "c-word" let alone much of the other stuff, however I don't demand you follow what I do.

    Anyway, folks that post here enjoy it, even if they sometimes tell us how awful we are for letting the other side say such awful things.

    So you think we should have nudity while children are awake and able to see it? You think that is a good thing?

    Thanks, and now I know!

    DO YOUR PART AND RID YOUR SITE OF THE RACISTS!

    Be a responsible hobbyist.

    Blatant racism is not allowed on any other blog I am a member of!

    Why is it allowed to foster here?

    You might want to have a personal conversation with Damo. I’ve known him for 15 years now and if Damo is anything he is fair and honest. I think you will find him so too.
    So why is racism allowed to foster here?

    Why doesn't management ever do any fact checking- and allow such blatant Fake News to be posted here daily?

    Is that being fair and honest or just irresponsible?

    Now it was antisemitic as well? For heaven's sake Mason, you need to forget that nonsense. After all the time defending you against Top, it's a smack in the face to in turn pull her shtick. Everything was settled. Dutch immediately said with a sense of confusion that he was talking about your socks. I was watching the entire squabble you two were having and saw it myself. The mods all ruled on it as well. What he did say was to an effect of you having a sock account fetish and getting freaky with your socks that you knowingly named after people. Even those comments that broke no rules weren't out of left field. You were playing games with Dutchie because of what he said about people that use sock accounts.

    No worries. My main reason was to use that meme again. I crack myself up.
