The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Would Anyone Care to Chime In?

They want to claim kid friendly but really what's kid friendly about boolprop is that they let kids be members and allow them to get away with being brats in the off topic areas. Hey, we might act bratty, but at least we're polite about it. |

I would be... upset-ish if MATY or any forum I visited more than twice disappeared, but mostly because I tend to be out of the loop and would miss the hacks until I found them again. It wouldn't be the end of my world, I guess. I dunno.
I don't believe that it would be the end of anyone's world, merely that they would be upset about it. |

For them to "learn things" on their own would mean taking on a responsibility for themselves. In todays world? Not likely. That makes me a sad pirate, but it's true. Society these days tends to shy away from anything related to responsibility. Eh, some do, some don't. Lumping people into one group never creates an accurate statement. |

I didn't, and I didn't post anything there. I can't speak for the people who did.
I appoligize then, I didn't think to check to see if you had. Not quite a vaild point JustLiz. No one posting at boolprop was trying to change how boolprop members behaved at PMBD. I can see the logic here as well, and although you're going to think I'm avoiding responsibility for what I say, I'm merely going to comment that I'm having difficulty thinking, as I've got an awful headache. |

I'm pretty sure Sushi means, change for the better. Everyone knows boolprop is going change eventually, but there is always a chance it could be for the worse. If Sushi feels she can prevent it from becoming worse in any way by signing up here then thats her choice ^^
I didn't mean to suggest it wasn't her choice, I just don't understand how she thought posting here would help, that's all. I'm going to twist your words somewhat, but: How did you think posting at Boolprop would help? |

Ky, I'm sure she did mean 'change for the better', but they still have a somewhat valid point =/.
It would be somewhat different, if members from here were flooding the forum with posts with adult content, swearing, and making inappropriate implications.
Really, all they're doing is debating, albeit in a style Boolprop is somewhat unfamiliar with.

I repeat: I have never stated my opinion on the debate. Nor have I said that any of you are wrong, or have broken any rules. I just came over, to ask if you'd play nice. No need to jump on me and get all defensive.
They are playing nice, really. None of them have made personal attacks, or even said anything remotely malicious, on Boolprop. They've merely debated to the best of their ability, and expressed their opinions in a mature manner. |

I have quite a bit to say, so here's my two cents:
I am most surely for PMBD, although I haven't expressed this opinion on Boolprop, nor in other places, as many of my friends feel quite strongly the other way.
I believe that this debate is appropriate for Boolprop, and that there's nothing wrong with members from here signing up there. After all, if they're being talked about on Boolprop, then they have a right to see it, just like Boolprop members have every right to come here, and read this.
When I read the thread at Boolprop, I felt that some people were being quite agressive, but I understand that's merely a style of debating. What I think some people don't realize, however, is that this style of debating can be seen as a personal attack, rather than someone just trying to prove a point, or convince someone of something.
The thing with first names is quite simple - at Boolprop most people prefer to be called by their names, and I know I consider it somewhat rude when people I know know my name call me by my username. It seems somewhat impersonal to me, although I'm used to be addressed in person where people know my name, so it's mostly a matter of conditioning.
I would be one of those teenagers you talk about being taken advantage of, but I believe that I'm not. No one is pulling wool over my eyes - nor over any of the other member's. Boolprop gets millions of hits a month, so it's natural they would have to pay more, for better hosts. They crashed the servers of sort of host you're talking about, hence the 'Boolprop Blackout' as site members semi-affectionately call it.
Oh, and for those of you who are interested, my username on Boolprop is JustMe, but I couldn't use it here, as someone already had it.
