If you remove those, the only specifically Dune-related content would be the "Dune Talk" forum and my shtuff.
So the "mandate" here is general SciFi discussion, and that of Jacurutu Dune and pretty much Dune only. (Plus fun things here like Hype- and Nudies-bashing.)
At least that's the way I'm ordering it in my mind for now.

Ah. Perhaps. Ill bump it down out of most monitor's sight, then we can decide if its a pain in the ass having it later.

You can hide it totally if you want, I just thought it would be a good idea to have it in two places... but they're both on the same server aren't they?

I still like to read them sometimes without all the bullshit preek comments they tend to get. We can see how much use they get in the next few weeks then decide if we still want them visible. Yet it seems like the concensus is that its overkill. Anyone else wish to chime in? Ears here are open!
and yes, they do seem to be on the same server. Hmmm.

I don't think that's justified nor wise. A good wrist-slapping should do and as a small community, you have to tread carefully at the beginning lest the board be perceived negatively before it's even had a chance to gain ground. Ban only utright abusers and obvious trouble makers, like SC for example![]()

Omph, I'm pretty sure that most of the time when he's addressing me he is passive aggressively trying to insult me. I noticed out of all the posts regarding the 2girls1cup and the shit involved (lol) he decides to be "disgusted" by my comment that it's chocolate ice cream. There are several other instances where everyone is being silly, but he targets me with one of his snide comments. Maybe he thinks I'm an easy target, because I'm female.
I've tried to cut him some slack because of the language problem, but when he launches an all out attack against me, it's hard to ignore. Like I said, though, I'm not gonna argue with him in the serious forums. Also I'm not going to ask for him to be banned, I can handle anything he throws my way.

Don't worry, I'll give him a chance to make a fool of himself, or not
