MODS I HAVE PERMISSION TO MAKE THIS THREAD. DONT LOCK IT!!!! EmptyThu Apr 02, 2015 11:06 pm by Burkman
It's depressing to see how inactive it has been recently. I mean, everybody is pretty much primarily posting in the never ending thread now and there's not enough people here to make this place really booming. We need to find some way to bring more people here before this place just fades into nothingness...

I know for a fact that a lot of boards out there are thriving because of how many people are there. We just need to get back into the game and pull people here. However, where we obtain these people might matter, because we don't to end up pulling in douches like those at Selkath.

I understand that people are busy these days, but it doesn't seem like they're rarely at their computer anymore. I know most of you are still dicking around with your computer. I don't know how we …

Happy New Year OT! We may be dying... BUT WE'RE STILL HERE! We had an... interesting year last year. Vice Admin Burkman is taking a long earned vacation and Uly is stepping into his position. Well... I'd have more to say but I've got other things to do atm... and oh yeah... to quote Callin... "GET A MIC YA BUM!"

We are supposed to discuss wether or not it was right of PJ to lock the "Whats your favorite sexual position" thread.

PJ says in conclusion to this thread he will decide wether or not to unlock the thread.

I personally dont think anything is wrong with the thread. So long as no links are put into the thread that will show visualy about the position.

I mean we already have something worse than that thread. Actual descriptions of sexual positions. Here ill show you. :fuck: see! we have rape even!!!! i dont think that emoticon is appropriate even. It's a guy forcing a cripple to give him a bj. i mean that has to be worse than my thread easily!!!!



Ok so now we are going to have a legit discussion about this issue. Can PJ they only responsible mod please moderate this thread to make sure the discussion actually stays on topic.

I'm assuming Scott is also a good moderator but i have never seen him exercise his powers. Everyone else besides PJ i've seen them abuse their powers.

I don't care if you make this thread.
And Matieu never even uses his administration powers or at least I have never seen him doing such.

PJ is in control of security in these here parts... his deputies are Aximand and Collawars. Respect them and I'm sure you'll receive no issues.

Nemis, the emoticon you posted shows no sexual activity, only insinuates it.

You can talk about sex here, but the description of it to the point where you're talking about position seems too much imo.

Guys we are supposed to discuss wether or not it was appropriate for PJ to lock down my "Your favorite sexual position thread"

Can you comment your thoughts on this at all? Maybe go look at the thread, and comment on what you saw was wrong with it, or if you saw nothing wrong at all and it was funny? anything?

I think it was a stupid thread started by a virgin and deserved to be locked because we have thirteen year olds here.

I don't believe in coddling/sheltering kids. It probably has something to do with me being raped when i was 11 by my babysitter. I don't mind it. I say raped because that's what she was charged with. I still to this day think its bullshit though. It didn't tramatise me.

I did get tramatised though when i was 5. Maybe thats why that didnt tramatise me.

Well if you guys really want me gone that badly. I dont want to be where i'm not wanted. Ill leave.
Before i leave ill say this.

I liked you all.
If i was ever mean to any of you i didnt truely mean it.
If i ever appeared to act crazy around you guys it was because i felt safe around yall.
O and it was fun. Ill probably come back in a few months. Thats what i always do with the OT. Till then.
I'll be going back to /b until it gets boaring.-- I love /b but i always liked the OT more cause i got to build relationships with people. but yea im back off to /b

*vanishes*


*o and because i dont want to read any comments like. good redence you fucking piece of trash. sort of thing. I wont see anymore of this site once i hit this send button.* So dont bother wasting your breath.--or i guess dont bother moving ur fingers in this case.*

P.S. Scott sry i had you waste your time with making me that signature. I really do want to see it though. So if your still around in 3 months when i come back ill take it from u then.*

IDK about that. Every time I go there there's always cocks everywhere.

/b/ Had tons of cocks the first time I went, the next time though there was just bewbs. I haven't seen phali in a while (save for one furry pic). But it has some good lulz

I wouldn't touch /v/ with a ten foot poll. But it's the easiest place to troll.

@Nemis I don't know if you're serious or not. I hope you're not.
