Yes. If you criticize any pornstars that are forum favorites, then you get all the moderators and senior members insulting you. The topic gets locked. How sad. Whatever happened to freedom of speech? What is the point of having a forum, where you are not allowed to voice an opinion in case it upsets a moderator or a senior member. I agree a forum should have rules, but this is political correctness gone too far.

First of all, this is a privately-operated forum; "freedom of speech" is irrelevant for private operations. For more information on this matter, please take a refresher course on constitutional law. I -- like many -- come here to read about porn, not to discuss the Bill of Rights.

More pragmatically, a strong negative air to this forum would drive away people. Heck, pretend you had a favorite bar; one day, random people started coming up to you and say, "you suck". How many more times would you keep going back?

Porn stars are people too. They have feelings. If you start yapping, "I don't like So-and-So because she won't do This or she does too much of That", do you think she'd be coming back?

Summary: On a purely operational standpoint, it makes far more sense for the moderators to keep this place comfy for industry folks to visit.

This isn't a politically correct forum. It is supposed to be a polite one. Don't get the two confused. (Sadly, many do.)

Something I've noticed: it takes a person about ten years to learn how to talk and the rest of their lives to learn how to shut up.

I strongly suggest that you take some time to look at yourself in the mirror. Try to see if other people would see you the same way that you do. If the answer is yes, well then, carry on and understand that you have to live with the consequences of your actions (but please make sure you have read the forum etiquette guide first).

Good luck.

And on the same day I change my signature:

Steph and Drew set the tone for the forums and we moderators try to follow their general guidelines. If you've got a problem with a specific action one of us has taken then either take it up with a moderator or with Steph via email, just like it says in the Forum Etiquette.
