If Neb were to call Benton a quivering ball of parrot droppings, then Neb would be banned for life.

However, if it were actually later found that quivering balls of parrot droppings were in fact a healthy and good thing essential for human existence and happiness, Neb's ban would be repealed and he would be invited to the annual party where the management spanks and humiliates SCS.

Got it?

Could you please use my name in a scenario in which I get banned for using the board's petty cash fund to frequent a titty bar...where the main attraction is a US flag appareled, Kate Upton lookalike who uses the stage name, 'Bombs Away"?

BTW, this is a completely made up scenario.

In all seriousness, personal attacks are lame. I hope this works in cutting down on them. I like reading a lot of the discussions on here, but hate it when it gets personal.

I think multiple topic threads could get a little hairy given some topics like the ones currently involving Europe for example.

Irreverence is sort of the nature of our boards and of political and religious discussions in general. That is okay. What is not okay are personal insinuations about or personal attacks on other posters. That is the boundary that has been crossed too many times lately.

Examples: It is one thing to say that Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is a scumbag, etc. You are expressing an opinion on a political figure. It is quite another thing to say that, for example only, StLucie or oncemoreintothejimbreech is a scumbag. That is not acceptable. This would include saying that StLucie or oncemoreintothejimbreech (once again, for example only) is a scumbag because he thinks Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is a scumbag.

Note: This includes responses to other people who may have made a personal attack or insinuation on you. It is not acceptable to respond to them in like manner and you will face the same discipline as they do.
