RIP JD?
What kind of person in their right mind employs a username that indirectly suggests that someone who works here is going to die?
The answer of course is that no-one in their right mind does!
Back in the days when this forum was getting underway we had a few loyal posters and a small membership of a few hundred at first. On the very rare occasion when someone hit the bottle and started posting rubbish it wasn't too upsetting and was dealt with quickly and everything went along as usual...
Now, of course, this message board has taken on a different style and along the way we have attracted a lot more people and a lot of different types of reader.
We have also lost a few regulars along the way also! The new layout is a bit harder to use for some and there are more forums to post in and more information and entertainment to be had.
We also keep on top of things by deleting all members who haven't logged in for 6 months so we don't have an artificially high membership count.
It has taken a long time to develop this format and we haven't finished either. We are always in a state of flux and we listen to ideas from all our posters which help us fine tune this message board so more of you will use it.
We don't have silly features and statistics bogging it down, either. Some forums have calenders and the 'invite a friend' feature, etc. Or statistics showing how many posts you made from 3 in the morning till 5 in the morning and when your birthday is and what color socks you have on! It's all just a waste of time and no-one reads that crap really!
We also don't have ANY moderators anymore. Why should we? All we are here to do is discuss ladyboys and shoot the shit about stuff we like and hate, right?
We all have our favorite parts of the forum and we all have the parts that we don't even bother looking at!
Some people like posting about politics - that's the province of the Virtual Pub. It gets pretty wild in there sometimes, but that's what politics does to some people! Who cares - it's in the pub and out of the way if you don't like that sort of thing!
Some of the old timers of the ladyboy scene probably don't venture into the Travel Forum too much. A lot of us will pop by the Picture Post Forum every now and then to see what's new!
Most of us read and write on the main forum at the top.
So - the message board is big and it is unmoderated...
This is when the occasional lapse in judgement starts to creep in. This is when on the very rare occasion there are just one or two posters who don't recognise that there is an invisible line they cross when they post something.
(Having said that there are also one or two overly sensitive people who whine like girls.)
In the end this message board is private property. It's the sole domain of the web site owner, and running it is my job.
Both the site owner and myself are very clear on this invisible line and so are 99% of our posters.
We don't have rules (apart from one - don't post rival site pics!)
We don't use the rather childish warning system that all forums have available to them when a poster gets hysterical either.
We also don't ban people... mainly because it's almost impossible and it just causes vindictive online campaigns of hatred, etc. (Yes - usernames have been banned in the past - but we don't ban people from re-signing.)
That doesn't mean to say that you can post what you like - you can't.
This forum has a responsibility to all its posters and that includes ladyboys and transgendered people who are here posting on complimentary site passes and also the paying members who help us shape the whole site and the direction we head to in the future.
In otherwords it's not a democracy. There is no rights of free speech! We are not here to debate the various aspects of terrorism and religeon or war etc. (You can if you want to, but in the right forum, if you keep it civil!)
We are all about ladyboys and we won't lose sight of that.
Stogie!
