I don't see the need to sticky it. But I can't say I pay attention to the 24/7 threads as I don't have it, so I don't notice that many threads about it. However, if any of the Mods feel it needs pinning then fine.

I didn't see this listed, but I sometimes see pictures with someone flipping the bird-are those acceptable?

so long as they aren't directed at another poster. Ok, well what if it's as a response to a post or question in general? This for example:

That may be going too far. We'll talk about it, see if it is.

Changing my name to "The Reverend Bob Schlapowitz" doesn't violate any Religious Content based rules does it?

Not answering for the mods or anything, but I believe at one time there was a poster here (might have been biafra) who's name was Noam Chomsky. and if that didnt violate any political rules then i don't think your name change should either. also i believe there is a Reverend Psycho that posts here as well. just my observations

Reverend whatever is fine. Using, say, "Jesus Christ" as your s/n...not so much.

Just wondering if you guys ever thought of putting up a "Dead Horse" section. They have one at a Guns N' Roses board I post at once in a blue moon and it really helps to clear up the clutter. Threads that get done over and over and over and over could go in there (Montreal, Should WWE End the Brand Split are good examples). It could just be a place for threads that have been done to death can go and free up the main page.

Putting threads like 'Look at Cena get stunnered by Austin!! ROFLZ!!' in there would clear a lot of things up.

How long does it take for new members to get approved once they register? Someone I know Registered a couple of hours ago, and got the activation key, then was told their membership was awaiting approval.

Someone I know Registered a couple of hours ago, and got the activation key, then was told their membership was awaiting approval. Up to, but usually not beyond two days. It all depends on when certain mods are online and if they have time to check things out for verification before approval.

Then it's a matter of deciding what's been beaten into the ground. The same case for Montreal could be made for "I love Mickie James" threads. And then we get everyone upset because they can't express their feelings their own way because we have it limited to just one thread. "But mine's completely different!"

"But mine's completely different!" good point, good point. i'd also say though that you still get that guff anyway due to the "all purpose _________" threads... but it comes rather rarely (just from what i've seen. if i'm wrong correct me.) so you're going to deal with that either way... but it seems that the boards tend to get clogged with the photoshop threads, and the TNA sucks/TNA rules discussion that has pretty much taken over every TNA thread in the rest section... and other assorted fads and whatnot... it would be good if some folks didnt have to scroll through a bunch of photoshop threads and the like to get to the "real" threads if you will (for lack of a better term. i enjoy the photoshop threads, so no offense meant) and if you're in the mood for stuff like the fads, photoshop threads, etc, then you can just go to the Dead Horse board and check it out. i'm sure theres something i'm missing and this idea totally wouldn't work... but as far as i could see, with a little tweeking it could really make the board just that much better.
