I've always thought of it in quite simple terms; if a subject matter offends, don't read it. If you get all worked up about a topic and tend to offend others because of that, don't participate. People that make it sound like they are forced to read and participate in a subject just because it's easily accessible are being disingenuous at best; what they are really saying is either that they unable to control themselves or that they want to censor other people's discussions because they don't agree with the opinions that are expressed in those discussions.

The opt in/out thing is a reasonable idea but IMO, you should have to choose to opt out like you choose to ignore people. Or perhaps, we should all be ignoring each other by default and have to unignore people specifically to see what they are posting...
well said

I think it should still be there. *shrug* What if someone gets on there and posts porn or is a new account made with the purpose to spam or someone goes nuts and starts calling us all MFer?

Are we to go look through the list of active mods to find the one available?

------------------

Just my opinion.
pick a couple of the mods out of that list and PM them.

maybe this would be the proper forum to have a waiting period to enter into?
