Is it just me, or does it seem odd that while the forum rules prohibit us from cursing or making bigoted remarks, the comic itself makes reference to a lead character being a female genital and another reference to the Troll Priestess being raped? Also, I was wondering why the thread titled F****** Awesome hasn't been deleted or altered yet.
Verbose
It makes perfect sense.

Given the slightly adult (but not explicit) nature of the comic, we in the forums have been given a simple rule in terms of explicit language and bigotry: Don't do it.

However, our moderators also take into account the fact that LFG is slightly adult comic and trust us to be responsible enough to not cross the line between appropriate and inappropriate. We do, on occasion, swear and seem to discuss sex (amongst other adult subjects) incessantly.

If either Kay or Ghis think we have crossed a line, they moderate us. Generally, we are given a gentle reminder followed by having our post edited. Suspension follows from there and, one assumes, banishment is a last resort to enforcing the rules.

So long as we follow the prime directive, to play nice, we are given some leeway in bending the rules.




Also, if the thread named Fucking Awesome is the first time you've seen the word on internets, then you're a statistical miracle. It's a locked topic and so far, to the extent of my knowledge, nobody has complained about it. Eventually, it will be pushed off the front page and never seen again.
Kayhynn
And the thread was locked for the record.

Sounds like you don't like the rules, if that's the case the public forum isn't the spot for discussion but rather the useful PM tool. Thanks.
Verbose
I mentioned the locked part. I was being helpful!



...oh God, I was being helpful. Now I feel dirty in the bad way, not the fun way.
Zasp
Verbose are you feeling okay? Your actions are off today...

It's the lack of penis that's doing it.

But he's been suffering from that for years...is it just now catching up to him?
Ballscratch
It's like when you JUST get your balls grazed, there's a pause then it hits.
Zasp
I hate that feeling... It's fine nothing happened all secure because you don't have to deal with the pain... Then ya breath or take a step and wham... gah those are the worst because they linger forever.
Ballscratch
And Verbose has that feeling, all the time.
Jimmy
Well, that explains certain rooms in the gingerbread house, if nothing else.
Ballscratch
And those toys! Those gummi toys...
cycordeth
...?
so not getting any is like getting nut tapped?
that blows...i glad im getting some then! biggrin.gif

Damnit! I specifically requested an even one. Someone will pay for this...
Ballscratch
So, do you want your mind added to or shaved back? We CAN even it out for you.
Jimmy
On the one hand, I'm not a fan of losing more of mind, but on the other hand, I'm not sure I'd like what this group would add to it... this is a tough one.
Captain
If you are asking "Why can they do it in the comic and not we in the forums?"

Then it is because the comic is an image, and can't be searched, the forums can, so if we say all the really cool four letter words, the next guy searching for Jessica Alba's panties will find this forum.

Or something like that.

Nail on the head. Google any user name and you might find a like to the forum profile.

The comic is a form of artistic expression. Forums are (or where at some point in time) supposed to be hubs for exchange of useful information and ideas. In the spirit of art, the artists can do whatever the f*ck they want. In the spirit of the forums, stay civil.

We're bringing sexy back.


What?

This has been answered. By me, too. I still feel unclean.
Ballscratch
Should I remove my hand from your anus, then?
Verbose
No, I want to keep as much normality as possible.
Ballscratch
Two hands, eagle spread then?
Kayhynn
Guys. Drop it. These posts are not appropriate.
Ballscratch
Your right. I'll stick to one hand, above pants.
Kayhynn
Stick to no descriptions what so ever.
Ballscratch
*Looks lovingly at Verbose*

Okay.
Verbose
The illusion of description is more effective than the reality.
Ballscratch
Indeed. No no-one has any idea what I'm doing.
Kayhynn
And let's keep it that way.

If you and verbose want to watch each other on webcam. More power to you. Just remember while this is a "mature" forum, anyone can read it, which means some things needx to be considered. So think before you post.
Ballscratch
But that slows me down WAY too much. That and I think I just had a terrified shiver at the thought of seeing Verbose.
Kayhynn
Well slow it down and think before you post because consider this the warning area on this topic. Next time will be a PM warning followed by a brief vacation from posting.

I believe we understand what I mean yes?
Ballscratch
Yes, but if you feel the need to suspend me, go ahead and do it, there is no need for further warnings. If I don't heed your council, then I'm the idiot.
Verbose

He said as though that weren't the plan anyway.

We know where the line is, in generalities. I think we usually stay on the happy side of it maybe?
Ballscratch
Well, with 3,500ish posts between us, one or two were bound to be inappropriate.

And thus hot.
ZiN
I fear for the species if either of you breed, then again there are far worse doing so already. dry.gif
Ballscratch
Oh, we'll breed. And then we'll train our miniature legions for war.
Verbose
Imagine if we could breed with each other. It would be perfect.
Ballscratch
What we should really do is merge our semen and impregnate Rae Rae. With her consent, of course.

Maybe not her informed consent, but still consent.
ZiN
Good lord, run hard, run fast rae-rae... Ugh. Leave the poor girl out of your baby making plans.
Verbose
If she runs, that will make her more Athletic. That's a virtue these days, isn't it?
Ballscratch
Besides, we need a suitable container for our seed.
Kayhynn
I say we sterilize em both for the sake of our sanity.
Ballscratch
It has been tried before by more powerful beings than you, and I now keep their reproductive organs in a Sainsberry plastic bag.

I doubt you need concern yourself overmuch with me. Aside from my beloved Scratchy, so few want to breed with me and I want to breed with fewer. Besides, I have massive personal space issues (which is amusingly dysfunctional, because the closest thing I ever crave to sex happens to be long periods of close contact) and making the sexy is difficult when one party doesn't want within two feet of the other parties.
Jimmy
Unless one of the parties is unusually gifted.
