Done and done.The level of rage I will have if this passes will be beyond comprehension.
Same. And because not a lot of people understand how the net is run, they aren't bothered or informed enough to get pissed enough to act.
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I decided to give up on him. :\
I agree that piracy is not legal; however, sites that host pirated things in addition to legitimate, freely available content, would be shut down, for instance.
One slip of legality, and an entire site blocked?
An argument was made against torrenting programs at one point in court too, but it was proved that banning the technology itself is unlawful: the program has no inherent intent to transfer illegal files. It is the users who decide what moves through the programs, and what is uploaded/downloaded via them.

That is retarded. It's a direct violation of the "freedom of speech" thing. Anyone knows that if you're under age you have to be supervised by a parent and if you can handle the internet then it's fair play. It's up to the users how they use the internet.Exactly. Even the proponents of the bill realize this; but the major pressure to glaze over that fact is coming from corporate entities.

I love public sex! The "hunt" for an appropriate place where the chances of getting caught are low, the soft breeze against your naked flesh as you're fucked against the car... I love it~ We also do in other types of public places, since my boyfriend lives in a dorm. The laundry room, the communal kitchen (2!), the couch in the shared living room, etc. Or in other people's houses, really quickly while they're in another room near by. The best thing we did though was when he fingered me underneath the blankets while we were watching a movie with his two older brothers. One of them was sitting right next to us on the couch! Hells yeah! I need to find a guy on campus who'll be willing to do that with me XD

Seems like a convoluted addition to something that already is worthless and a waste of time.Just a waste of time.
Yep.
Lots of other things could use fixing/updating/adding, but this cosmetic change seems low priority in the grand scheme of the site's advancement.
I'd agree the text posting field is a little small, even on the Post Reply page (not just Quick Reply).
It'd be great if it enlarged to fit the window to a certain scale.

For those who haven't heard, today a bill is being proposed in Congress that would really ruin the neutral nature of the internet.
From the EFF (source):
Sound bad enough already?
WRITE CONGRESS. They're not allowing dissenting parties to be present at the hearing today, just the corporations that want this bill to pass.
As a user of the Internet, don't you want it to stay free and neutral?
http://americancensorship.org/
Using this official site, enter your info (if you don't want to tell your address, just put your general town/city and a fake email) and a letter will be sent telling Congress that you, like so many others online, DON'T APPROVE of this restrictive and unfair bill!
Wondering why you haven't heard of this, even though it's being brought before Congress TODAY?
This major event is flying under the radar of major media because the people who "run"/own the mainstream media will benefit from this controlling bill; they aren't going to inform you that they're supporting this.
Don't let your voice go un-heard!
[size=10]/urgent advocacy message. I don't usually get this passionate about stuff, but this will certainly effect our community if it passes![/h]
From the EFF (source):
"The Internet Blacklist Legislation - known as PROTECT IP Act in the Senate and Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the House - is a threatening sequel to last year's COICA Internet censorship bill. Like its predecessor, this legislation invites Internet security risks, threatens online speech, and hampers Internet innovation. Urge your members of Congress to reject this Internet blacklist campaign in both its forms!
Big media and its allies in Congress are billing the Internet Blacklist Legislation as a new way to prevent online infringement. But innovation and free speech advocates know that this initiative is nothing more than a dangerous wish list that will compromise Internet security while doing little or nothing to encourage creative expression.
As drafted, the legislation would grant the government and private parties unprecedented power to interfere with the Internet's domain name system (DNS). The government would be able to force ISPs and search engines to redirect or dump users' attempts to reach certain websites' URLs. In response, third parties will woo average users to alternative servers that offer access to the entire Internet (not just the newly censored U.S. version), which will create new computer security vulnerabilities as the reliability and universality of the DNS evaporates.
It gets worse: Under SOPA's provisions, service providers (including hosting services) would be under new pressure to monitor and police their users’ activities. While PROTECT-IP targeted sites “dedicated to infringing activities,” SOPA targets websites that simply don’t do enough to track and police infringement (and it is not at all clear what would be enough). And it creates new powers to shut down folks who provide tools to help users get access to the Internet the rest of the world sees (not just the “U.S. authorized version”).
Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) has placed a hold on the Senate version of the bill, taking a principled stand against a very dangerous bill. But every Senator and Representative should be opposing the PROTECT IP Act and SOPA. Contact your members of Congress today to speak out!"

Maybe we should just get a single tag of "Milf" to get rid of confusion? My favorite Hentai theme/tag as for others as well use the term "Milf"
when searching images/manga
We had #milf, but changed it to #housewife to be more inclusive of just general older women (who aren't always necessarily mothers).

Vanilla cannot be applied to stories that include: #incest.Whoa, wait, what? Why? o_O
I mean, you just described vanilla as "consensual, oral and/or penis-in-vagina sex". Incest can have that without breaking any sort of rule, can't it?
Incest is still a taboo and breaks the vanilla code. Sorry!
I agree we need some kind of happy-sex tag, but as of now vanilla cannot include incest, happy or not.
Boooo... =3=
Fine, but just remember. It ain't gonna please a lot of incest fans. I'll come back with my tag suggestions later tonight.
I know; it's not a perfect solution. But again, as of now, we have no tag for happy/consensual sex that includes taboos. :s

Ok, thank you to those posting their tag suggestions:
But I need to remind you of a tag policy. VANILLA = consensual, oral and/or penis-in-vagina sex, between a male and female.
Vanilla cannot be applied to stories that include: multiple partners (#harem/#group), #anal, #forced, #NTR, and/or #incest. May also exclude #toys, but I am not sure on that count; need to check with Jake....
No exceptions.
As to the male-on-male and female-on-female situation, as Fakku adds more yuri and yaoi, the vanilla tag might be applied to those kinds of non-heteronormative relationships too.
(I realize that these aspects can still be part of happy and consensual sex, but the vanilla tag is like the flavor vanilla: just consensual 'simple' sex, as of this time.)

It'd be great, but it will put you on the sex offender list in the case that you're caught (in the US).
So, until then, I wouldn't recommend it except on private property.
