For the politics quip, beings that is a place where Jason likes to throw down, he seems to be miffed by that Tom Hanks shit. Change that one to something more serious.
Yes.

No.

It shall be done.

Although I'm pretty sure Castaway wasn't a British film, and Tom Hanks shouting for Wilson is a pretty common reference...

Then write something better, Costanza. I don't think I've seen them all but not all were going for funny or summat.

Ones in forums that weren't likely to be a problem were more aimed at having an element of tongue in cheek, whilst underscoring that our default is NOT to moderate the hell out of a board. A few were a bit more serious, on things like Posters Pictures and Advice. Just made sense to have a few bits of sincerity sprinkled in.

Castaway wasn't, and as someone who hasn't seen Castaway, I got the reference. But seeing as how Politics and Sports are our two truly "no gloves, no survival help, you're on your own for real" zones, your attempt at light-hearted analogy left Jason... cold as ice!

Hopefully he'll appreciate the snowflake reference. :)

Maybe if one of my rules isomewhere is "Aqib Talib isn't a member. So we don't defend anyone" or something.

Also, Jason always assumes your humor is British, but seeing as how you were brought up Swedish and Japanese, that plays (more) into as well. Amirite?

Not sure what's going on but it sounds like we're basically morphing into a Bronco forum. Very good!

That would be absolutely epic, my man! But no, I am just talking Seb's "forum rules" (perceived as a warning) thing that comes up.

I could buy right now. But we would have to ban Seb and Bastard outright. Might be controversial... or would it, hmm?
