I thought it was a hilarious joke that was a response to a specific event
A PA strip got posted that used the word "faggot," which ruffled some feathers. It was the one where Tycho is playing with a band at some redneck bar. The thing is, a lot of people come here to complain and they shot off some emails to boot.
The issue is that they sent Tube the angry email, and Tube has about as much influence on the comic as a blade of grass in Egypt. This is what I believe eventually led to the creation of the edict.

Man I've been on these boards consistently for almost the past 10 years, and looking back at my recent(ish) post history, I'm basically a semi-lurker now.
And yet I come here pretty much every day and keep up on the Hot Threadz and the Haps happening in people's lives.
but I've been posting a little more the last month or so, and even when I'm not posting as much I still get some posting in so that hopefully I don't seem like a total stranger
I wish that someway, somehow, that I could save every one of us
sometimes I see a post with like 20 awesome and a single agree
and I'm like what sort of person does that what sort of person does that man
I think that's because they think it's good, but not awesome, so "agree" is the best they got. There should be a "pretty good" button for those situations.

So I'm a stalker. Awesome.

tell me about a time when you realized your life needed reprioritizations
or, because this is basically the same as my birthday, post compromising photos of yourselves and assemble them into a zip file and email the zip to me

this one time i went to Seattle and didn't get to hang out with my friend because she didn't reprioritize her life.

I'm not going to say I remember exactly when I remember meeting you, but I do remember. I want to say it was PAX 2008, but I met a whooole lot of people that I didn't really know at the time, so I might have that mixed up.
I want to say Fiz(z?) was there making inappropriate comments toward you, but that might have been another time and place. Fiz(z) makes a lot of inappropriate comments toward a lot of forumers.

Is this the one?
The silly goose rule was being kicked around for a while before this
The comic was more of the final straw
Personally I am vehemently in favor of it
You can still insult people
You just have to put an iota of thought behind it
sup shitbirds you guys talkin' bout the glorious edict
i still resent the edict simply because i can't use that word anymore
the way I have chosen to interpret the edict is that I can use whatever word I like
as long as it's not directed at anyone here
this doesn't seem to be a problem
This is the same way I have seen it.
I could make a post in a thread about driving and say something to the effect of "Today I got cut off by some stupid motherfucker on the drive to work."
But if I were to quote Shorty's post and say, "you're a motherfucker, Shorty!" or go post in threads he doesn't frequent and say "Shorty is a motherfucker" I would be directly in line to receive some punishment.

Such a good word.

I fucking love this movie so much
hey satan...: thinkgeek amazon My post |
The only times I've really felt my life was heading in a direction I wanted to change. So I did. Been going pretty swell so far.
Oh and meeting you in person. Ughhhh.
What the fuck is up with that? You get the uncomfortable feeling that you're under-performing or something.
On the plus side, I've clawed my way up to a position that allows me to call you all shitbirds.
Ok. Why?
Sure, the agrees replacing posts I get, but why passive-agressive if you don't actually agree with it? Or think it's awesome in the case of awesomes?
and I'm like what sort of person does that
what sort of person does that man

Khoo banned the n word in all shapes forms and kinds.
Racial slurs were banned probably around the Deni era.

as to whether or not any shitbirds post on this forum, i decline to comment
i will say however that magpies are really shit birds
honestly it isnt that big a deal but MAN sometimes i miss it

It's a good thing to shout or mutter when things go awry.
