Forums >Off the Beaten Path>I have a feeling RA might be getting more members from RW
Eye of Sauron
Honestly, in terms of organization (with all the chat threads), the masters group is probably the closest thing that RA has to the RWOL BF forum where all these new folks are popping in from.
SO.... hey BFers above the age of 40... check out the Masters User Group. The environment might seem similar. And you will encounter an active group of folks, lots of folks, you are not encountering here.
And once again Mr. Wizard (aka: Stevie Ray) explains the internet.
The Masters are nice people.
Cindy
And they all wear green jackets.
:P
Yeah I find it funny as well that a certain female in the swamp will never venture out to see what was said about her in the GSP.
Hey! I see you talking about me!
I prefer to be addressed as "Goddess"

Oh, now I remember why I'm not in that group. I can't keep up.
Hey, who you calling a BFer?

√ Big Sur Marathon 28 April
√ Bighorn 50 Mile 15 June
Tahoe Rim Trail 100M 20/21 July
Most of the new folks are BF'ers. Beginners forum.
Twas a joke.
He knows I was really calling him old.
(I put this in the wrong thread. There are a lot of similar threads) As for profanity.... It's legal. But it ain't a hundred percent legal. I mean, you can't open up any thread, go on a roll and start Murphy-in away. BCR wants you to cuss in your home or certain designated places. Breaks down like this, ok... It's legal to know it. It's legal to think it. And if you are the proprietor of a thread, it's legal to say it. It's illegal to attack people with it, but that doesn't really matter 'cause, get a lot of this, all right - if you get popped by the mods in RA, it's ILLEGAL for them to search you. I mean, that's a right that mods in RA don't have.

Heh, I used to be on a forum that had "Nanny" software (that's what I call it). It would substitute any potentially naughty words with other words, like "thingy". So when you wrote about Dick Beardsley it would show up as Thingy Beardsley.
I like the substitution idea. On RWOL, it'll just error out and make you change it. It causes some interesting issues. For example, Kung Fu is a no go because "FU" eff-you is bad. You can say damn, hell, and ass.
All you gotta do is say "earmuffs" first and you can say "fuck", "shit", "bitch." See.
Runners run.

It's always funny to me on running boards when one cannot talk about Dick's Sporting Goods or cocktails without censor.

I like the substitution idea - could be entertaining. Kind of like a mad libs game. So, if I follow this thread right, this is a Great Scary Place? ruh, roh.
Not if it makes sense.
This is THE great scary place (in RA user group lingo). bitchin for some cussin
I'm a RWOL transfer student as well, primarily because of the log. looking forward to seeing what's happening here on RA.
