Some topics just don't interest the majority of our members, but we don't want to dictate content, so here's the new place to put outrageous, absurd, offensive, and plain stupid thread topics. Now, those who don't want to wade through these sorts of discussions in our "General Chat" forum don't have to.

Rules remain the same, and may tighten up if things get out of hand in here.

As always, comments are welcome!

I like it but you know you guys will be moving a lot of threads. Not too many will openly admit what they are posting is stupid or unwanted.

You do realize this is going to look like the morning that somebody went in and bumped enough of Greg's posts to the top to fill the front page of Rag Chew on QRZ.

That's easy, block Greg's access to all other forums. Problem solved. :lol: :lol:

We're hearing from members who don't want to read threads about whale penises and the like. What this ends up looking like wasn't a consideration ... we are acting on behalf of our entire membership as a group.

Travis, the posts will sort themselves as in any other forum.

We'll move threads that we believe fit the criteria of this new forum. It's pretty simple, really ... threads that won't interest the majority of our members due to content are the target group. Our objective is to return our "General Chat" to discussions of topics that most folks consider "normal".

We're not picking on Greg ... I culled the first 2 pages of General Chat, and half of Greg's posts remain there. That he selects topics that borderline on the absurd sometimes is his choice, not ours. Everyone should have a place to express themselves now, and everyone else will find it easier to ignore the more "lively" discussions.

With that in mind, if topics here are within the rules, constant personal attacks on the OP strictly on the basis of the topic itself will be frowned upon. The choice to not upset one's self with these topics has been made easier.

At least there was enough forethought to make it a 'members' only page, thanks. No Greg, not that kind of member you dork. I prefer to post in members only spots so those damned googlebots wont pick up on me. Perhaps it should have been named the 'KWW fantasy turd bowl'.

Yes, grand idea making this page the only place Greg can post his bull$#!t. He doesnt deserve his own page, but I like the concept of at least attempting to quarantine his crap. While I am a 1st amendment supporter, I am sick of his juvenile, quasi closetqueen (no offence to real closet queens) irritating effin feces. Can I make it any effin plainer, GREG? Greg, in this case, STFU! :whistle: :dance

Hello.

Rumpus room sounds just too kindergarden.
I am not saying that the forum is wrong, just that having pictures of dorks, whale or otherwise, and rumpus room.
I think you can see the problem.

Can you make it so that the Rumpus room threads don't show up when you do a search for new posts? Cuz that's how I always do things, I come on and hit the new posts button. So no matter what, I'd still have to wade through Greggy poo.

This is why I suggested that we tone down the off colour stuff on the other forum. It was getting a bit too think and I figured it would start annoying some members and sooner or later, in this case sooner, the mods would have to enact some sort of change. Hopefully this change, i.e. the creation of Romper Room will be one that everyone can live with.

Hello.

OK, so I start a thread to see what was the deal.
KWW takes the hint, sort of, and actually asks what others think?!
I am, of course, referring to the Greg? and Poll threads.
So, what went wrong?
Remember, this is it, for both Greg and I.
In my case, I fit right in, almost. :mrgreen:
Greg? Neocon in a somewhat liberal environment.
So, what gives? what needs to change?
Remember my "Time out"?
I could see that I needed to back off for a while, I now that at times I am not 100% level headed, but few are.
Bottom line is that there ARE limits on the Island.
If one recalls, I had asked for some clarification on this.
I know where the line is drawn, as do most others on this board.
So, with that said, might I suggest a rating system?
http://www.islamicaweb.com/forums/
Very common in the Islamic community, as well as everywhere else, just not as clear.
In this case, positive feedback is in a colored graph.
On ebay, feedback is a number value.
On this board, we have friends and foes, not quite the best choice, as no real display of what we are doing.
From what I see, based on the other forums, I prefer the Spanish culture but will take Mexican.
I live in fear of the average American, be it white, black or chicano.
I also need to stay away from newspaper writers and the like.
The point being, feedback gives us a way of judging ourselves by way of others.
And, some need this more than others.
This is my viewpoint, and as such, my opinion, clearly flawed by my personal bias.
Thank you.

1. Phone answering machine message - "...If you want to buy marijuana,
press the hash key..."

2. A guy walks into the psychiatrist wearing only Clingfilm for shorts.
The shrink says, "Well, I can clearly see you're nuts."

3. I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn't
find any.

4. I went to the butchers the other day and I bet him 50 quid that he
couldn't reach the meat off the top shelf. He said, "No, the steaks are
too high."

5. My friend drowned in a bowl of muesli. A strong currant pulled him in.

6. A man came round in hospital after a serious accident. He shouted,
"Doctor, doctor, I can't feel my legs!" The doctor replied, "I know you
can't, I've cut your arms off".

7. I went to a seafood disco last week...and pulled a muscle.

8. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly. They lit a fire in the
craft, it sank, proving once and for all that you can't have your kayak
and heat it.

9. Our ice cream man was found lying on the floor of his van covered with
hundreds and thousands. Police say that he topped himself.

10. Man goes to the doctor, with a strawberry growing out of his head. Doc
says "I'll give you some cream to put on it."

11. "Doc I can't stop singing The Green, Green Grass of Home." "That
sounds like Tom Jones syndrome. " "Is it common? " "It's not unusual."

12. A man takes his Rottweiler to the vet. "My dog's cross-eyed, is there
anything you can do for him? " "Well," says the vet, "let's have a look at
him" So he picks the dog up and examines his eyes, then checks his teeth.
Finally, he says, "I'm going to have to put him down." "What? Because he's
cross-eyed? " "No, because he's really heavy"

13. Guy goes into the doctor's. "Doc, I've got a cricket ball
stuck up my backside." "How's that?" "Don't you start."

14. Two elephants walk off a cliff...boom, boom!

15. What do you call a fish with no eyes? A fsh.

16. So I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me "Can you give
me a lift?" I said "Sure, you look great, the world's your oyster, go for
it.'

17. Apparently, 1 in 5 people in the world are Chinese. There are 5
people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my
dad. Or my older brother Colin. Or my younger brother Ho-Cha-Chu. But I
think it's Colin.

18. Police arrested two kids yesterday, one was drinking battery acid,
the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one
off.

19. "You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They
left a little note on the windscreen. It said, 'Parking Fine.' So that was
nice."

20. A man walked into the doctors, he said, "I've hurt my arm in several
places" The doctor said, "Well don't go to those places"

21. Ireland's worst air disaster occurred early this morning when a small
two-seater Cessna plane crashed into a cemetery. Irish search and rescue
workers have recovered 1,826 bodies so far and expect that number to
climb as digging continues into the night.

Mostly icky. I met Ron in our younger days when I was a parking lot exit tolls cashier at Newark (NJ) International airport. I met many celebrities that way. He was living in Philadelphia at the time, why he didn't fly out of there I have no idea, but seeing him up close and personal I wonder how such a little round person resembling Bib the Michelin Man only much shorter could be a porn star. Now he's a balding wrinkle bag in La La Land, and he had a manager??? Then there's the Pudding Pops man, does he really talk like that?
