ORIGINAL: Moonhead A list of banned topics would actually be quite handy, I'd have thought. Yeah, including which sections those topics are banned in. For instance, Chi made it clear Nietzsche's ideas on noble/ignoble moralities are only welcome in the Gorean section, which is one of the biggest "wtf?! are you dumb?"-moments in recent moderation history for me. If you're sorting which ideas go where, it's probably a good idea to have some grasp of either the concept or the categories. Anyway, since I try to take what the mods say seriously, that being what I signed up for by joining here, I find it somewhat annoying that those sorts of things aren't actually covered somewhere. Even so, as tazzygirl points out, the moderators can do as they please without violating the TOS as such. I thought that part was obvious; the real debate is whether things are being handled in a healthy way. Healthy, from my perspective, being defined as what leads to a good forum and good threads. IWYW, — Aswad. P.S.: I do realize Chi isn't dumb. She probably misinterpreted things. It happens. But until I hear otherwise, her ruling stands, even if it's just wrong.
