why isn't anything aloud?

See, that is what I do not understand about some people. Have I ever once said that I was not happy with this site? No, I haven't. Today i broke a rule that I did not know existed. I said something unkind about the president, and I didn't even realize that political posts weren't allowed. Now I know. I won't do it again. But that doesn't mean that i cannot sit here, along with the person that started the post, to ask why some of these things are not allowed. It doesn't mean I hate the site, or that I am complaining. I am simply echoing the original posters question "why?"

I have my own website. I know about these things. The G-rated site I spoke about is very strict on things and would not allow things that could get then in trouble. Debates on any issue are allowed, it isn't as if discussing why something should be legal is going be be considered dealing drugs. You can't get in trouble for just discussing things, if that were the case then tons of sites would be shut down. I mean i suppose anyone COULD get annoyed and file some suit against the site. For example, I might feel offended by the use of curse words around here or the sexual topics... but does that mean nothing of that nature should ever be said or discussed? No...

Some of those topics could turn into a pro-use of illegal drugs. I don't mind them, but what if a reprensative of M.A.D.D. happens to visit KMC and reads something like that? She/He can make agains't KMC for allowing topics like drugs usage be permitted. Do you see what I mean now?

striel, scroll down and hit "forum rules"
you agreed with these when you sign up, meaning you should have READ them and know them

now, you didn't get banned for it, so you know the stuff now

No. It makes no sense. The lawsuit would be thrown out.

it's texas, everything can happen 😉

We don't know that for sure Striel. The main point is that ppl like that could cause trouble for KMC and might be force to shut down temporarily. It's just better to be cautious with things like that.

The point is, anyone could cause trouble about ANYTHING. I could suit the owner of the site because I didn't like the way *insert any random example* is done here. Things like that are ridiculous. I am not bashing the site owner for their rules, I am simply telling you that your point is not a valid reason for these things not to be allowed.

it's very valid, and it's how it's done here
you just keep repeating the same thing while the RULES you agreed with clearly state otherwise

Sounds like someone REALLY wants to be a monitor here. 😛

a monitor? like in a screen?
no, I already am a piece of software, like Tiny Tim

Striel what the hell does that have to do with anything, if you are going to continue to question every rule you have to follow in life you will end up in some kind of trouble later on

acceptance leads to happyness

happyness leads to bunnies

bunnies leads to ... ... dinner 😈

Is this a cult? (yes I am TEASING dang it)

Fire-- I will continue to question things as I see fit. I am not hurting anyone, and I am not intending harm.

yessot-- monitor-- as in Site moderator/monitor. And I was joking.

acceptance leads to happyness is an asian saying, which I find very true

and Striel by all means question what ever you want to question I dont care I just think you will come out more annoyed or sometimes even saddened than before

so was I... about the bunnies... breakfast is good too

No, It is just in my personality not to blindly accept things. Sometimes questioning things brings about change. And if it doesn't, it at least allows those in charge to know that not everyone understands their reasoning.

you can briefly mention that you dont have to keep going on and on about it, indeed sometimes questioning things brings about change, but not always ppl also have to accept that there are things in life they can not change, and even things they can not change and can not be questioned

Maybe, but that doesn't apply to this situation. Even if the site moderator won't change his/her views abotu allowing certain things to be discussed, the originator of this post had the nerve to question them about why it isn't allowed. I came in, saw that, and as I said a few comments back, I am simply echoing their question. So, in effect, this IS something that COULD be changed, and HAS been questioned.

It could indeed be changed, but it will mostlikely not be changed and if it is changed it will not be because of some members nagging about it.
I wasn't really talking about this thread when I said there are things that can not be changed and can not be questioned.

so all this is doing now is taking up space, anywayz it wont result in anything anywayz, heck the why has already been answered

Politics and Religion) because it almost always creates trouble.
Porn and illegal stuff like drugs) because we could get in trouble with the law for this.

I know you dont agree with that whole law thingy but I dont think raz or any moderator wants to test it, most members are glad they dont test it
