Tell us something great about you , can be anything.

Im not bad if I do say so myself.

Can you try and stay on topic DT.  You've proved your point - no need to show everyone that you're obsessed with bodily functions.

Where should I post then?  You locked the thread which would have made this on topic.

Oceans - now that we're sharing this - DT is obviously going to try and prove a point by carrying on with this rubbish - so what's the situation?  Do we let him monopolise these threads with his crass posts on his favourite subject or ask him to try and stick to the topic?

This forum will look ridiculous if this continues.

Well seeing as I'm a bit more flexible than you DT - how about a deal.  I'll unlock the disgusting thread  if you stick all your unpleasant photos and comments on that.

The forum looks ridiculous if you decide who may post what - you will be the only poster left.

But as you locked the thread you need to say where humour can be posted.

I'll unlock the disgusting thread  if you stick all your unpleasant photos and comments on that.

I don't think a moderator should be casting moral judgements on what they think is 'disgusting' or 'unpleasant'- Perhaps you should just stick to moderating?

Oceans - now that we're sharing this -

Oh look- a committee that has been formed and still doesn't know what to do or how to behave

How very 'left' of you  ::)

What do you suggest IQ - do you want to moderate?  I don't want to put the thread back - but DT is obviously going to keep posting this junk until someone gives in.

I can give my opinion - DT gave me an earfull on his thread when he was moderating  - so what's the difference?

I'm not sure how that's more flexible than me - that's where they all were before you locked it.  And you were the one with the inflexible attitude that your humour was the only humour that could be posted.

I did not ever stop anyone from posting as you have.

So tell me again who is the flexible member?

I didn't give you an earful I merely did what the thread said I would do - you started up the shrieking when you would not take responsibility for your own actions.

I don't want to put the thread back

Of course you do.  All megalomaniacs do - witness Bob Brown and his indoctrinated disciples.

You are the flexible member because you believe it should all hang out regardless of who is offended.  I am, on the other hand, just attempting to raise standards here a bit so will remain inflexible in some situations.  You've got Oceans as well for a bit of balance - doesn't that make you happy?  If I am occasionally a bit heavy handed - she will lighten the situation and vice versa.

We'll get it sorted out eventually.

Yes.  Flexibility is allowing everyone the right to choose their topics.  Not having them arbitrarily decided for you by the forum puritan.

There seems to be only one who is offended and that is you- perhaps you should learn to distance yourself. Maybe even pull the stick out?

Quote:

Yes well - IQ you're not really in a position to give advice are you?  You need to clean up your own act before you start telling others how to behave.

I expect you have not read the statements I made.  I did not delete, lock nor otherwise prevent anyone from posting.

The megalomaniac who did that immediately after saying that was not her intention was you.

Is this a deliberate act of rebellion to disobey the rules of this Relationship Forum DT?   I think a new rule has to be added to the "discussing body excrement" - and that is no inference to it either, visually or otherwise.

I will give you credit for perseverence though - and I will admit to you having some wit.

Rebellion?  Of what do you speak?  I am posting pics similar to the pics I have been posting all along.  How did it suddenly become rebellious?

And this new rule you have, no bodily stuff, what does that include just so I know?  Menstruation?  Ejaculation? Defecation? Urination? Bleeding (or mention of blood)? Nose picking?  Perspiration? In fact anything a body produces?

It will be hard to discuss people while remembering your rules that they have no bodily functions at all.

Well I'm sorry DT - but that's just the way it has to be.  I thought this Board could be more aesthetic and cerebral - maybe attract an intellectual or two.  How does that appeal to you and your f""ting thread?

There is nothing wrong with wanting that Mantra- what is wrong is that you decided that was how this forum was going to be despite the moderator and the input from posters based solely on your own perception. and narrow mindedness

Don't clench down too hard on that stick- you'll get splinters

How long has the board been running?

How long has the light hearted farting thread been running?

Where was the intellectual or two before the farting thread?

Don't kid yourself mate.  The biggest threat to the forum is (and always has been) freediver's manic control (he merges the threads arbitrarily for no reason at all) freediver's supension of regular members to encourage flamers, freediver's flaming and baiting, freediver's threats of banning, and arbitrary application of non-existent rules coupled with dictatorial moderation like you have begun to practice.

Forums can only ever be what the admin allow.  You and freediver are creating a tyrannical regime.  Intellectuals oppose such structures preferring freedom.  Why do you think I am speaking out?

Hilarious DT!  That is so funny.  No-one is creating a tyrannical regime - a poster or two are just being reined in a little. No-one else is complaining.  As far as FD being dictatorial - he seems to be about the most tolerant administrator that I've ever come across.  Some would say - too tolerant.  You are complaining because you believe you are being forced to use a little restraint.  Here's news for you - to most adults this comes naturally.

I do sympathise with your complaints (imaginary as they are) - but surely there's room here for compromise?

Ummm, I didn't see your answers to the questions mantra?  Shall I repeat them for you as you don't seem to read the whole of the posts already there before posting.

And I don't believe restraint is having someone decide the topics on the forum.  If that is the case who decides?  You?  Why?  Where's your 'restraint'?

Compromise would be letting others also choose their topics of interest.  You don't want that though - you aren't prepared to compromise, you choose to silence free speech if it isn't of interest to you.  Why is it a one way street with you and Bob Brown mantra?

As oceans aka me..started this thread and incidentally is called "one strength"..perhaps you'd both like to do something really crazy  like uummmm oh I dont know...address the topic..???? Now wouldnt that be wild and "out there"?

What is your one strength?

Good question .

No.  In all other areas I am only an ordinary Australian.

Although I don't think flatuence jokes are even slightly amusing, I am amazed at the response by certain posters.   Everyone passes wind ... it is natural.  To object so strongly about the word "fart" is extremely "anal retentive" behaviour.

Don't you realise that when you pass wind someone nearby knows or do you think that you are the only person on this earth that never passes wind?  See your GP immediately!  In Hospital, after an operation the first sign that your body is back to normal is a good FART.  Nurses run around and say Mister Jones farted!  A good sign of recovery!

Loosen up!  :D

Welcome to Ozpolitics "logical".   ;).

I do believe a humorous pic has gone missing from the forum

Welcome aboard ultra.  Good to see a new name.

Not me..Ill ask FD..!

I thought I was the only one moderating at present. Noone has contacted me in regard to this.

But I would appreciate WHOEVER is doing this to have a bit of respect!!

You are quite welcome to take over moderating this thankless place if you want.
