Okay, I did read that.


I enjoy being here and talking with you and a few others. I enjoy being there and talking with a few others. I dont listen to either of the fluff that comes from any of it. By fluff, i mean the nonsense. People are going to disagree with you and how you are at some points. Not everyone is going to be friendly, but as long as it doesnt get to out of control, some things have ot be written off for the better good. I love you-40

why, do you have something in mind? :-?

there are NO specifics. this thread may help. ....... https://www.rollitup.org/make-your-requests/83414-how-about-unmoderated-forum.html
Specifically, I was curious as to why some external links - even to competing forums - are tolerated (like cannabis culture) and others are not (like you know who). It would be nice to think we are one big community but recent experience has shot that idea to hell.

And yes, the link does help. It confirms my fear that bans and thread closures are based on arbitrary moods and whims, rather than a reasonable set of rules (or guidelines if you prefer).

But, arbitrary or not, I do understand it is RIU's forum and RIU's rules.
thanks for the info.

\I saw it, it was pretty cool...are you taling about the scene where he drops the weed all over the floor when he gets the vape
Yeah. He drops it TWICE. He grinds it up once and then drops the grinder into the sink, spilling everything into the sink and on the floor. He then refills, grinds again, and drops it ALL OVER THE FLOOR again. You see Doug picking the shit up off the floor with random crap, finding a roach ...

mind you all this is happening at 4:19 on Doug's first day back on the pot ..

what are these rules you speak of? there are no rules. that's like asking your mom the rules to being an adult. :mrgreen::blsmoke::peace:
The rules are:

There are no rules, unless a mod say there are rules, in which case its too late.

So stay on your best behaviour!!!

I realized this quick, I have people trying to attack me everyday now!

I just tell them Im sorry, ask what I did to them, and give them positive rep, and say I hope that makes up for whatever I did to you..

IDK, forums are strange and lively creatures that will live on with or without me.

GG :peace:

Yeah, personally I'm glad it's moderated. Unmoderated forums have a way of attracting trolls that stick around and get off on the fact that they can insult anyone they want with no repercussions. It's a bad situation.

I was on this mountain biking forum for some time - alt.mountain-bike, you can look it up on google groups - and there is this guy Mike Vandeman who is the self-purported leader of the anti-mountain bike movement. He does nothing but post his literature reviews and personal opinion about the damage it does to the environment. Mind you, readers are trying to get more information about how to better mountain bike ... it makes the signal to noise really low. Even worse is his antagonistic arguing technique - lots of personal attacks, refusal to accept any other opinion but his as valid, etc., so most of the forum is devoted to rock-throwing. It pretty much destroyed any use the forum had.

I understand rules, but the loss of MAJOR posters is odd..I saw a bag of dead babies posted, did that guy get banned ?..Today someone was selling lights, banned ? Me I'd have warned them (baby & light guys) but not ban..the rumblings are either selling shit in pm or advocating another site..I've mentioned names of places that I've seen, but reap no profit or anything...just trying to help......as for other sites, you can't just sit and wait for a reply, whats wrong with another site ?? RIU is my favorite and a heavy hitter, so I don't get the rub....I know theres always 2 sides, but F***..? Kind of a "pull this" thing...you do then someone says why'd you do that.......Be nice to know so I don't end up outside looking in..... ?

Hm. Yeah, that's interesting. Not allowing talk of other sites is kinda fascist, like filtering the internet in China. RIU should have faith that there are reasons people stay here, and there might be reasons people like other sites. I mean, not to say trashing RIU should be allowed. Just sayin.

did you report the "dead babies and sales" threads? because i have yet to see them. you really think i would allow a pic of dead babies to stay up? i won't allow titties but you think i would allow dead babies. i'll say it again "REPORT IT!!!". i have NOT seen it.

thank you. :blsmoke::peace:
