The thing I can think of clearing up first is my moderation. If you know me, and I mean really know me and my values, you'll know why I do what I do is not likely because of the usual common reasons. I don't want control to the point where you are pressured to do things cautiously around the administration. I have been on a board like that, nor do I want to make everybody get along to sing the administration's song (those type of boards are usually pretty based on if the admin likes it or not) or enforce a level of friendliness. It's the whole point about morality here. I have no intentions in applying any communistic or socialist ideas, which I can say, a lot of boards do, or at least a vague idea of one. Yeah, a democratic spirit they call it. it's like, "Hey, I don't care, I'll count you in for all my contests even if you don't want to do it." They don't ask you if you want to participate, you are in, simply just because you are there. You must understand this is a free board and this board's activities are voluntary. You must also understand we don't want to sensor things, but simply to keep it moral.
Now, the submission idea. I had one person concerned with it so far. You should be fine, as long as you think about your piece before posting it on here. I am only checking for moral issues and basically if they follow the rules. I don't intend to change anything, maybe for the exception of a spelling error, which I really don't think it matters either way, (tell me if you really have an issue with that and I'll not touch the spelling either) Anyways, so it's not a matter of filtering out words or what I like and don't like, it's a way to keep this board moral.
