Tim, we do come to the forum without logging on at times. For me, I have 3 work computers for me to use...

I got friends to pm me who is doing what as well. Gossip is a powerful tool in the net...

what's the point of this post?

The point of the thread is that there is a thing called freedom of speech being hotly debated earlier on last year. The angry forum members are upset with the way that everything has been censored in the forum blah blah blah.

So when freedom of speech is given to the forum members, there are people who want strictly photography talks here. This section called General talk is basicly for people to channel some babbling to this area regardless what the topics are. I think Adam has been generous enough for people to have a say in this forum but this does not mean that we all like this...

If you are asking me about my personal opinion regarding most threads in this forum, it has been long dismissed by many where some have been spamming my message account with politically inccorect messages.

to get the OP to give a valid reason for starting this thread. it wasn't a rhetorical question, despite how it looks.

a sly attempt at humor with regards to the recent increases in general moderator prescence and action.

since you can see who is watching which forum, atupdate used an opportunity when no moderator was looking to make a joke.

i found it funny

HA! HA! he's right!

We have spies, super spies, mince pies, spice racks and don't even get me started on agents... we got reagents, travel agents, estate agents, secret agents, double agents, even some octuple agents.

OH! and there's also the Romulan Cloaking Device we have available so that we can watch in stealth mode.

I think we've been caught having unsupervised fun. Oh well, back to your regularly scheduled programing.

I think that this forum is much nicer and more laid back than another "specific" forum. I was actually banned from that other forum yesterday, and the reason that was given was that I whined too much. I wasn't aware that it was against the rules, but apparently it was. To keep things in perspective though, I joined both forums at the same time, and I had the same amount of posts there as here. For some reason I've never had any kind of infraction or warning here, yet on that forum I had recieved over 12 before my banning. Maybe you should go check it out before you say that censorship is prevalent here. At least we have a General Talk section here.

When I signed on at 4 PM and went to the list of forums, there wasn't a single moderator or administrator signed in (Moderators are in Bold and Admin's are in Bold Red I believe). I thought that since the parents were away that we should have a little party. It didn't take long to get caught with chips and dip on the carpet.

The Invisibility Cloak trumps all so my advice is to guard your weapons jealously lest someone write an agent to monitor and neutralize all of your agents! Dave

Apparently, there must be politically incorrect participants who have too much time and too little humour. As someone once said, "F**k 'em if they can't take a joke...." Dave
