But overall:

From the Doc:
quote:LANGUAGE: I censor some words on this forum. Most of the words are some kind of cool "elite" speak, with all the silly characters, you know what I mean. Also banned is the name of a certain current president of the USA. I *could* choose' the censor all of the dirty words I can think of, think of George Carlin's "Seven dirty words", but I will not. Those words are simply too commonly used, I don't think they *should* be considered offensive any more. Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke. Europe is much more sensible about these things; swedish TV has lots of nudity, occasional use of foul language, but very little violence. What would you rather your kids be exposed to?
OPINIONS: You should all have them. They should be yours, not someone elses. They will all probably differ from each others. That is a good thing. If you must disagree in a strong way, please refrain from any personal attacks, OK? This is supposed to be a friendly place! DarkGarden's comment about "a forum that is obviously taking a backslide" really hurt. Please don't make it true.
IMAGES: Hey, this forum is all about webdesign and stuff like that? Photoshop is part of that. Now if people all wanted to start posting their favorite porno pics I wouldn't like that very much. If someone wants to use an emotionally charged image in there sig, I will simply not censor that.
SEXISM: Hey, this industry should really have an equal mix of the sexes, shouldn't it? Why doesn't it, are guys more able to handle the rigours of Photoshop? There's no reason for it, but their *is* a disparity of the sexes. I welcome a better mix of people here, and you should too. If the act of *you* expressing yourself drives too many others away, maybe you should make a personal effort to not do that. Personal choice, *your* choice, and *individual* choice made by each and every one of us here. Yeesh, I don't even know what to say about this issue. This is the internet, these are your colleagues, the best thing about this medium is that it doesn't matter who you are, how old you are, what your sex or sexual preferences are, we should judge folks by WHAT THEY DO and HOW THEY DO IT.
Play nice now, y'hear?
