Abbreviated rules 07/28/2017
Underdawg did an excellent job of explaining the rules. Here's the simplified version: Don't insinuate Pedo. Warning and or timeout for a first offense. PermaFlick for any subsequent offenses Don't out members. See above for penalties. Caveat: if you have ever used your own real name or personal information here on the forums since, like, ever - it doesn't count and you are fair game. If you see spam posts, report it to the mods. We do not hang out in every thread 24/7 If you see any of the above, report it to the mods by hitting the Report button in the offending post. We do not take action for foul language, off-subject content, or abusive behavior unless it escalates to persistent stalking. There may be times that we might warn someone or flick someone for something particularly egregious. There is no standard, we will know it when we see it. If you continually report things that do not fall into rules #1 or 2 above, you may very well get a timeout yourself for annoying the Mods with repeated whining. Use your best judgement. Warnings, timeouts, suspensions and flicks are arbitrary and capricious. Deal with it. Welcome to anarchy. If you are a newbie, there are unwritten rules to adhere to. They will be explained to you soon enough.

Hah! I already saw a photo of that statue, I think it's in the Kama Sutra Good one though -DSK

Not sure what it is, but that pic has the look of an old Polaroid. Those cars would be worth a hell of a lot more than that boat, today FB- Doug

That's a great name but I bet they don't ship it this far. Anyway I just popped a Fat Tire in your honor I've never cared for IPAs either but try to keep a few on hand for friends. What beer goes good with ice cream? FB- Doug

I said "I think" not "I know." I may be a smart ass but generally try to be more smart and less ass. Can you point to some statement I've made in favor of gun-grabbing, or are just being spiteful? -DSK

Excellent. Thanks, Brass FB- Doug

Kids generally do respond better to sailing with other kids; OTOH this may be a different kind of case. I can certainly see going sailing as a sort of quality time. The problem is 1- she is likely to be bored and 2- she is likely on the threshold of that age where being in the presence of a parent ins unspeakably uncool. Go to a sailing class together? Cure for boredom, takes away the aspect of "dad in charge" making it uncool. Join a club that's got a good youth program and welcomes parents as volunteers? Unfortunately there is not one of those on every corner, but it's worth looking at. I see buying a boat as not the best option right now. FB- Doug

[shrug] OK then. The red line, right next to the topping lift, pulls up the gate to the lions pen. And get me another beer, wudja? FB- Doug

Another way to look at it: they're already being punished. If we show mercy, some may turn out OK. And we can always run them off later. To R_33, ignore the boring jibber jabber on the side. Unless you're actually a spy for those Wooden Boat Forum guys. FB- Doug

Huh? "Rosenberg" is a fine old Irish name........... -DSK

That's a good one. The NC at museum brought a Rodin exhibit years ago; there were a bunch of works there that were magnificent. -DSK
