Then do it on a server that you own, or one that allows profanity in
discussions. The only reason you would have to fear those 'seven people you
haven't met' would be because those people are entrusted with the keeping of
this sandbox, which you don't own nor do you set the rules in.

I think the general idea is that Chris (and to some part myself) is threatened
by the idea that those rulesetters won't make Lugnet a place where we'd want to
stick around.  Lugnet has been fantastic for us for a very long time, but the
current "administration" is pictured up here as not our cup of tea.  (It is
extremely difficult, I've told Larry and others, to be even handed and balanced
and it's a job I do not wish to take on, but it is a job someone has volunteered
for and as a result will have to make work)  It may be inaccurate, but that's
the view in some parts of rtlToronto.

At some point in the future, we may warrant leaving to our own facility to do
such things.  Hopefully Lugnet can be accomodating to all viewpoints in some
way.
