"Forbidden" topics thread.
In my never-ending quest to help the moderators of this forum I have decided to compile a list of thread subjects that are not allowed to be talked about here. My rational is that by listing these some people can get the idea of what kinds of things cannot be posted here and will be more likely to avoid banning and the wrath of the moderators.

The moderators, if they so choose could add the title of threads deleted by them without of course mentioning the originator at least unless they have their permission.

I'm hoping the mods will appreciate my attempt to reform the forum. Remember, folks I'm here to make your job easier.

Now this is for posting of the title of thread, not for the discussion of these subjects, as they are forbidden! You try and discuss them you are liable to get banned, you are warned. If you notice a discussion that gets threadjacked by someone and gets closed by the proper authorities for a "touchy" reason you can mention the contents of the closing by making it into a title, but no detail!

If you want you can differentiate between thread closings, and thread deletions, it doesn't matter to me if you do (the latter will require speed to catch).

I can't list all the thread deletions that were mine, or other's, so if you remember some please share them with us. I might come and mention some I remember at a later time, but that doesn't stop you from remembering?

Again, moderators I am your loyal, obidient, servant.

Yeah, I see a pattern. People have been trolling and spamming the Community forum a lot more now that posts in OT aren't added to their post count.

I don't see any patterns, but I think I can make a prediction.

"Forbidden topics thread." will be added to your list. And with good cause.

What is wrong with homosexual incest?



Gee, though to answer...
...despite both homosexuality and incest being disgusting!
How could I possibly be physically attracted to my sister?

Why was that closed? It sounds like a good question to me. As in, I'd like to know the answer.


After all, if nothing else, it'd be a good way for despised posters (theoretically speaking of course, since we have none on Apolyton) to show that you really do see that their behavior is reprehensible - after all, they can't stand it either!

I think this thread is evidence EVc is a DL. That opening post was way too rational and well written to be EVC.

And if anyone still has any doubt just who's DL it is, check out

http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...8&pagenumber=1

A great example of EVC arguing with himself (PF)
PF respondes to a an EVC comment and the time is the same as EVC posts. What are the odds of that happening.
WAIT WAIT, PF is psychic and knew what EVC would post. THAT"S THE TICKET. I was watching the thread unfold so I know it wasn't a quick edit.

I would really think that he would have remembered having this type of thing pointed out to him in the past.

Maybe all the drugs effect his memory.

Actually I have always thought EVc was a Giant Squid creation. Most of you wouldn't know who Giant Squid was but I'm sure he's still here posting under some name or another.
