Why?

This fucking money forum is a travesty. You mods and admins know I'm no hippie, but we already have a politics forum--politics tends to define/guide national or global finance.
Is this really the best option? Doesn't this forum--though talk and debate can go on about money matters in other forums--sort of stumble over the line of what this site is supposed to subvert/abhor?
One word: "Trustafarians". Just one user's opinion. Sort of ashamed you let this one get set up. Bad call. Seriously.

I thought you weren't a hippie, but maybe I was wrong. As the founder of this site I guarantee there's nothing in our charter about subverting or abhorring a free market economy. Sorry to hear you're broke, but not every druggie sucks with money. If we ever start a communism forum I'll be sure to let you know!

I am no Trustafarian. No hippie. And I'm not fucking broke (I make my own living on my own hours, on my own wage. I don't see what problem you see there. Odd that you'd use that as some sort of rip on some user here. I thought this site was about sharing information and avoiding calling in a person's social class. If you want to PM me about this kind of bullshit, then you are more than welcome. I am NOT some dumb twat asshead that wears $300 worth of clothing and a retro-Che-Chinese Star hat on his head. That kind of insinuation seriously pisses me off.
Listen--you already banned me for close to a month for free speech (rather ironic, given the Ron Paul subject, eh?).
Either PM me, or fucking ban me. Don't pull this Barbie-doll shit.
Just a username's "hello".

Its true. The principle mission of this site at the time of its creation is very simple:
stopping the spread of misinformation about mushrooms.
As far as the community that has spawned forth from it has always been treated very open-minded-ly and unbiased-ly by the administration.
For a while, users were even able to create their own forums. Moderators were elected. The administrators from Ythan, Aphex, Thor, always upheld a very conservative approach to censorship and should be remembered for it.
OTD as ugly as it can be, and for the very reason that it can be ugly, is an important aspect of this community. It serves as a polarization for people on the other side of a social spectrum.
Both types are free to use the site and do.
The admins have always had the general idea that if a forum has potential for success, and is not themed around hate, its given a shot.
And this is good because it allows us to learn about our community and to open our own minds. Mushrooms are what we all have in common (or would if not for ODD and crap), and these are the people who use them. Some are successful in business, some give a shit about politics, some support Bush, some have scat fetishes, some pick their noses, some are doctors, lawyers, gypsies, gays, etc. etc.
PS, I love the Culinary Arts forum.

Wow you sure busted a gasket over that one. It was a joke. You never called someone a hippie? It's all in fun:

prolly cuz gnubobo goes off on this socialist stuff every so often, but doesn't seem like he cares to demonstrate why its the moral or pragmatic choice.
I'd imagine most people that would otherwise care just take it w/ a grain of salt.
And there's nothing wrong w/ a glove finger condom

This thread has been closed.
Reason: Feedback noted, but this thread resorted to personal attacks and butthurtedness, so I don't see any reason why it should continue at this point.
