IGNORE THIS CRAP POST I was forced against my will to make this post i swear! *checks for crossed fingers* OK why the hell arent we using IM (AOL brrrings? ) or email or PMs and are spamming up DGN instead?? Attention whores??? No really i mean it ignore this crap post!

nt

Howdy, Welcome =) *drum roll*

Blatantly Disruptive Posts Blatantly Inciting Anger Racism would fall under both of the above. But we've hesitated to try and form a specific definition about what racism is because its so broadly defined in so many different ways by so many different people. The DGN rules are left a bit "generalized" so that they can be enforced with flexibility. Many of the few people that have been banned over the 5+ years DGN has been around , has been due to continued racist remarks. (rare when anyone would get banned for any single comment, usually is due to them not curbing or cutting out their negative behavior after being asked at least once to stop) Blatant, clear examples of repeated racism, and direct repeated examples of directly insulting other posters are two key reasons for most of the bans in the past.

Recent comments on the DGN "play nice" rules:

I know myself i hadnt actually read this thing in awhile , just thought i'd point it out specificly. Its been edited slightly a bit recently but its still the same rule as always.

15 Feet of Pure White Snow - Nick Cave

Guess what happened when i woke up this morning. (and no its not anything perverted hah) Its great! Comon guess.

Just as a suggestion if your so inclined: All along when i see a new welcome post and im unsure if that new person even knows the post is there or not (they haven't posted in it) i usually send them an Email or PM saying something along the lines of:

Historical fiction wise i'd suggest : (note not "alternative history") The First Man in Rome - Colleen McCullough The Killer Angels - Michel Shaara if you like fairly "deep" historical fiction these two are probably impossible not to like. And judging by the near universally good reviews , i seem to be not alone in that opinion, for once! hah Currently Reading: latest issue of Reason magazine and slowly working though The Elegant Universe - Brian Greene

My Defender - Mesh (Very good if you like New Orderish Synth)

Hopefully its a trend that will continue (constant harping on promotion help is the key >cracks self in ass Lotta minor bugs with this thing, and im not 100% convinced of the concept itself. Does seem promising though. Cant seem to get it to post >afterponder

I met one of my girlfriends by accidentally spilling my drink on her. Didnt even see her she was walking really fast and i turned around to talk to somone ... SPLASH... thus started a 2 1/2 year relationship. lol :laughing

One of my old roomates when i was at U of M had a pound of this stuff (note we are talking ancient history at this point, havnt done any "drugs" in probably close to a decade now) I sucked down a ton of it and never got any of the described effects (like 3 bowls worth) was pretty upset at the time hah. Later i tried it again and >thought
