Have we regressed?!? I'm fairly certain we were better behaved when I joined.

There seems to be an inordinate amount of smuttiness, swearing and innuendo these days and I am neck deep in it too. Has anyone else noticed this? We are supposed to be elitist snobs and the way I've been posting recently seems to be, dare I say it, uncouth and brash and low down and dirty...

Should we call in the Spanish Inquisition? Or are they already aware? I wonder...

Why, whatever are referring to, good sir? I've witnessed nothing but impeccable manners and discriminating taste from my fellow members' posts...

The Phoenix Inn is the very pinnacle of refinement.

Quite right. We are the envy of all the internets.

So last night I was walking downtown for some pizza at like 1am with some friends of mine,
and someone said, "I'm so hungry I could eat a whole pizza."

I said, "I bet I could eat 100 pizzas," and no one understood me. I was sad.

Yes.

But I've not had any complaints nor the inclination to close threads and get yelled at for being a power-mad bastard.

So you're all disgusting people and should be shot.

I'd snob her elitist.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I'm elite at snobbery.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Well swearing is no longer blocked. But you know what I swear in real life and hear people swear in real life. Its more natural to say fuck than %$^& or use some lame word in its place that does not capture the same intent

I hate forums that police swearing like it's some sort of taboo...people swear. I haven't gone a day without uttering a cuss word since I was, like, a baby and not aware of cuss words.

Fuckin' right, people swear. Get over it, prudes.

There are places on the forums where proper discourse is expected and appreciated...

I agree we have regressed but in a fucking good way.

How many fucking people do I have to hammer in order to get that across.

The HAWT thread has been around forever, and until they get rid of it, this forum is doomed to be smutty. Sorry.

Dunno Frookie, if you're looking at the Inn you're looking the wrong place... but the book forums and stuff are still fairly snobbyist. Dunno bout the rest of y'all but i seem to only ever swear in the Inn...

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.
