A new section of the board.....

[oldjudge]

I see no benefit in adding this section and many potential problems. Everything should be done to encourage more vinatage card talk, not to offer alternatives to it. Is the purpose of the board to maximize vintage card interest or to maximize eyeballs? If it is the latter the new area may make sense; I hope that is not the case.

Jay, as stated earlier, and evidenced by the 93.4% approval voting for this section, I feel this is a family. Family can talk about other things than baseball cards. You don't ever, ever have to look at that section. I find it hard to understand why people want to deny others from doing something they want to do that is harmless. It makes 0 sense to me. Please help me understand why you don't want me to chat with my friends when you neither have to look at that area or be involved in it? regards

This is why this area should be allowed. The people who don't want it never even have to look at it. As I stated earlier, if it turns into quicksand, it can be removed. We are all adults (mostly). The people who want it can discuss current topics. The people who don't want it are not being forced to look at it.

How about an area where folks can upload porn clips? Ya know, because those who don't want it will never have to even look at it.

Excellent question, by the way.

That won't be allowed. See new rules when they come out

Now Rob, would that be soft or hard porn? I mean we should probably discuss that right now.

I'm sure there are those that feel hard porn may be a bit over the top but then there are those that may feel it has nothing to do with vintage baseball cards. You have to figure out where to draw the line and then you must remember that one man's hard porn could be another man's soft porn.

Leon, can we post porn? Can we? Can we?

[Fred]

Ok, so we can, until the new rules come out... is that about right?
