Seems like what's done is done.
Just an observer...no dog in this fight really...I figured out I can find hot pics and zesty commentary in about a zillion places on the Internet, so not experiencing any feelings of deprivation...
but I'm not foreseeing any great membership migration away from here because of the decision.
I think most of us are here for the diving.
Folks who get mad and threaten to take their bat and ball and leave, sometimes talk themselves into a grand gesture that ends with them all alone outside the park with just a stupid bat and ball.
Not at all. There have been many, many prolonged instances of hot chick reporting/discussion/action sequences that have produced extensive, involved, and impassioned debate amongst staff, some of which actually resulted in very hard feelings. In addition, each time there has been a great deal of moaning on the part of those who felt their posting rights were being denied them, along with the tired claims of unrestrained censorship. So no, it's not hyperbole.
You know, once when I was having a personally difficult time in my life (due to the suicide of a relative), I went for help. I told the therapist that I was sort of embarrassed to be complaining about feelings of not being able to breathe when there were wars and starvation and child abuse going on with people experiencing REAL suffering---all I needed to do was GET OVER IT. The therapist said that a crisis is not defined by the external but by the internal. With that in mind, I contend that it's not up to you, mat, to determine what is and is not worthy of the term. Your pretenses are showing clearly with you sitting up high there on that horse!Nothing that happens on scuba board is a crisis. Nothing.

I've been on SB for over a decade. How did I not know about the HCT???
In the future, would someone please PM me if a similar thread starts up again? I'd like to be able to scrutinize the contents in order that I can make succinct posts.
Thank you.![]()
THANK YOU! Porn and the glorification of women as sexual objects has no place here.
