Next, how about you delete those disturbing ads for those trashy horror movies. We have kiddies, around here, you know. I'm sure you're willing to sacrifice a little extra money for the general approval of your site by the sue-happy public. Aren't you?

All I requested was that you reel it back a little, because I really wouldn't mind if the naive bumpkins, who you'd have little consideration for in the first place, didn't feel compelled to report so many of the inappropriate things you do here.

There was a warning and an explanation and a polite request, that shouldn't really make people afraid of anything really.

My title changed too . . How do I change it? I can't seem to find where, unless I'm not allowed?

Maybe it's something to do with post counts now, it's the same for me.

It's quite obvious that he wasn't doing it out of respect for the homosexual community, or as an ode to a band he enjoys. He was doing it to be "Oh so shocking", which is extremely juvenile and immature. That's quite different from having an actual and even explicit discussion about sex.

/end $.02

Edit: That being said, I think that policing -can- be taken too far, and that "Gothic.net" needs to be careful when trying to walk the line between good discrepency and overlording.
So having oral sex, to you, is more disturbing than cannibalism?
You're a fucking twat and everyone knows it.

Bummer . . We'd better post more then, shame I'm just not that interesting. Although I know it's about time I got over the "watching and waiting" game, I would've liked to re-title myself.

It's more the way he described it, to be honest. Mond's old subtitle was just a bit too discriptive.

What post count IS required, exactly? I still have the feeling the feature was disabled in my case.

Too descriptive? Would you prefer "Penis licker"?

"Male Sex Organ Licker" could mean I lick men's brains. That's not what I meant, but it's obviously a pretty loose term.

Its hilarious, Tam, that in your blog you mentioned how one of the reasons you're into goth is its appreciation for horror movies, so witnessing horrible violence just for the thrill of it is peachy, but reading "Male sex organ licker" disturbs your Christian sensibilities.

If I recall correctly, it was 300 but that may have changed with the new updates.

But I used to have one, right from the start.

The admin said it was arbitrary, so I guess it means when he/she feels safe that you won't put "male sex organ licker" in the user title you'll be granted the ability?

I think you're right. I had 'cunning linguist', right up until I posted in this thread. If you find fault with 'male sex organ licker', you'll probably find fault with that as well. I was just wondering if it also would have happened if I hadn't posted here.

In what way?
Not only do you mention cannibalism, you mention a specific person.
Change it now.
I'm offended, and you're a hypocrite if you don't change it right now to something like "lover of rabbits prancing in a field."
Although you're a hypocrite anyway for other reasons.
