Matt, It's becoming increasingly apparent that iHub posters need a good way to relieve a little tension after all this tip-toeing through the tulips that goes on around here.
In light of this, I am considering starting a new board just for insults and personal attacks. The rules would clearly state that every post must contain at least one insult or personal attack or else be subject to deletion. A post could also be subject to deletion if it was overly friendly or positive in nature, even if the post also contained a personal attack and/or an insult. Low-brow and/or simpleton insults are discouraged but will not be deleted simply for that reason. However, creative and clever insults and personal attacks are highly encouraged. Vulgarity is neither encouraged nor discouraged.
The board moderators are the only participants allowed to give positive feedback and will provide encouragement and compliments to those with the best insults/personal attacks.
The only other reason a post could be deleted is if it violated someones personal privacy or contained a threat of an illegal nature.
The purpose of all this is to provide a much needed outlet for all the stress that is obviously building up around here. What do you think?
