    A thread accessible to members only with an appropriate OP warning of the content.

    Purpose: A place to vent, uncensored, thus allowing those of us who enjoy a good cussing rant a safe place to do it. No threat of locking, etc.

    Objective: Reduce the feeling of need to swear and rant in legitimate threads. Sort of the equivalent of going to your room and screaming into your pillow.

    I can see several problems with this idea, but so what?

    ???

    I had the same idea, Super!!! When did you get yours??? Bet I thought of it first!

    This tho' shouldn't be a thread but a subforum. And each "complaint" should be a thread carrying a full quoted bite of the bête noire in question—followed by the bite-back. Real juicy.

    What about just adding your rant to some thread in the cesspool?

    for some reason droopy dog slapping his mouth, running outside, across the meadow, up the hill, and when there screams OUCH! comes to mind.

    I'm trying to remain civil in the regular threads. It's very difficult (I know... tough shit buddy). I don't particularly want to get banned and I thought a form of "sanctuary" for the occasional unconstrained rant might be nice, that's all.

    If it's a stupid Idea, say so and let's move on.

    Unconstrained rants? In what context?

    Who says anything about "unconstraint" and "rant"? Your slip is clearly showing. Instead, why not think of it as "human nature"? How clever and upholding can one effectively maintain oneself? In what context? The Will to Power.

    Touché. But how did you interpret "unconstraint" and "rant"? Maybe something along the lines as this:

    Like anyone here needs a separate thread to start ranting. [noparse]:bugeye:[/noparse]

    If that is your definition of a rant, I fully support a whole thread for it.

    I was under the impression it would be mostly emotional unimprintables.

    Actually, I was thinking of actual cursing, ranting and raving. This would include:

    - Nonspecific rants about life in general
    - Specific rants and ravings about threads
    - Unconstrained bashing of posters and mods alike

    Only one rule: No racial attacks or threats of violence. (Edit: A threat being stating direct action against a poster, as opposed to wishing poster X would slip on a banana peel and impale himself on his own dick. This is fine.)

    For example:

    X is a complete fucking moron. I can't believe anyone continues to respond to his assinine posts. It's clear that his mother pushed a bit too hard during labor. If X's arguments were dicks, he'd be a eunuch. What a fuckwad of an asshat. I really can't stand X and his legume excuse for a brain. X is a worthless waste of good organic raw material. I hope X catches a disease from anal fucking his poodle.

    And so on. See?

    So basically you just want a thread where you can just keep posting swear words over and over again? Because that's what it will become after about maybe 5 posts, if that.

    Well, the more I think about it the less it makes sense to me. I don't know.
