Interestingly, on another board I frequent, questionable material was being posted regularly. A few people complained publically. A long discussion followed. The outcome was that there were more people in favour of posting whatever material they wanted, though none was as all around offensive as the link I most unfortunately did, as opposed it. The owner of the board took the side of the majority. His personal opinion of such material was that it was all in fun and was okay with him. He subsequently changed the rules of the board to include just about anything in the "General Discussion" forum.
I lost respect for that board's owner when the rules were changed.
Tony, I applaud your diligence in upholding the rules of the board. Keep up the good work in making this board a relatively inoffensive place to visit and exchange ideas. Thank you for pointing out my misjudgement. I made a mistake here that I will not repeat.
