I'm a definite "No"

I was a big believer in the rules B.net put forward. The moderators taking things out of context and unrightfully banning was what ruined it but those rules were perfect.

I don't trust giving these people any form of slack, they always seem to abuse it.

You are very low on the list of users who should be able to have any sort of influence over the rules.

I agree with A Dumb Door. If NSFW images/threads are appropriately marked, then I see no reason why they should be against the rules.

If we were going to remove the chains on NSFW, then I would suggest one thing. You know what Bungie did with a good chunk of garbage that clouded up the Destiny forums and was spilling over to others? They made a new forum category, and called it clans.

I wouldn't break the lock and chains on offtopic, gaming, or anywhere else. I would just make a forum, where everything was contained safely in a padded bunker. Because, naturally, if we broke the chains on offtopic or any other forum, some asshat would abuse it. But in a padded cell restricting the content to just that zone, it'd be fine. You put lots of signs up, you know, biological safety hazard signs and construction crews at work signs, stuff like that, to let folks know what they're stepping into, and you let it go from there.

But not into the other forums.

Wasn't it comms that brought up that idea? I think it was called the "Anarchy" forum. Most of the users voted that one down, and I was wary of it for splitting the small population we have now.

That's a pretty good compromise, though, I will admit. If we were to go that route, however, there would be some restrictions placed on the board (no guests or new members allowed, no post count tracking to keep someone from rapidly increasing their rank, etc.).

All we'd be doing is making another /b/.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Why the hell make a damn replica?

B.Old =/= /b/

B.Old's gone.
/b/ isn't.
