Can all members please make sure that they read the forum rules
http://www.allthingszombie.com/forums/faq.php?faq=vb_faq#faq_forum_rules
We try to be as lenient as possible, however harassment of any description towards other members will not be tolerated.
1. Things that will get you banned quick-like: hate speech, racism, bigotry, threats towards other members, & too many retarded posts.
2. There are ladies present. Act accordingly. Sexually degrading comments (to an individual, or in general) are simply unacceptable. There's no place here for them here. What is or isn't acceptable will be left to the discretion of the moderators.
3. This is a friendly zombie community. It's just an internet message board, so don't take things too personally. Act civilized and refrain from resorting to insults. If you get into a pissing contest or start flaming, expect to be warned. We understand discussions can get heated, so if you're warned, just take it as a friendly reminder to keep an even keel. Continuing despite being warned will get you banned.
4. Threads concerning bootlegging, pirating, and/or stealing of movies, music, or someone else's copyrighted material IS NOT allowed and will result in post deletion and possible further action.
5. Refrain from posting pornagraphic pictures or links to porn sites. This isn't going to be a place for kids to get their rocks off. If you wanna do that, take it some place else.
6. If your vocabulary consists of curse words every other word, find another board. We would rather not lose any IQ points by having to read your posts. Mainly because we can't afford to lose any more than we already have.
7. If you have a complaint (ie. moved/deleted post), please address it in a PM (private message) to a moderator or administrator. Try to refrain from taking your complaint to the message board without first attempting to resolve the issue via PM.
8. No religion/politics
If you can follow those simple rules, feel free to post whatever you like and rest assured that we will do our best to keep this an open, honest and friendly forum, where thoughts and ideas will be freely expressed. Unless you post something we don’t like, in which case we’ll delete your post immediately, and depending on how we feel, quite possibly send you a virus that will format your entire hard drive. But let’s not dwell on that, because that’s just negative and we’re all about being positive here! Enjoy!

Just look a page back and you got it.
Also good ol blacksun.....or WhitePower Sun as I like to call him.
He was quoted as saying-
Land of the Dead was 1 of the worse movies I've seen. It reminded me of black human rights movement. The black zombie lead his people to happiness of some BS. Im not going to spoil the movie but the end was soooo dumb. I can just imagine the zombies having a village and the black guy zombie is like the mayor and they live like humans ..having jobs and children. Im sooo disappointed in George. He was the few people i admired in the movie industry. But obviously he was taken over by our 21century retard society. I was suprised he didnt add a group of black rappers that knew karate and killed off many of the zombies.... Im not no nazi/racist guy...just now a days every movie has to have the black guy or girl that has some type of purpose....because you know its racist if a black guy/girl isnt a big movie. So overall...LOTD was 1 of the worse movies i ever seen...i can complain more and more...but i will wait a few more days till everyone sees it. And to set the records straight im not a full blown racist..im just saying the truth
:evil: I could bring up old people all day.

I remember this wanker. I liked this statement particularly, because it implies that we should be against him only if he's a "full blown racist,' but casually accept him if he's only the kind of racist that says things like "I'm fine with black people, I just don't like niggers," or the classic "I like black people just fine, I just don't want my sister dating one." :doh:

What about use of the word 'Gay' that seems to be a favorite ratort for some of you guys.
Don't get me started. The use of the words, Gay, Retarded and whatever else seems to imply to me a limited vocabulary and will not be tolerated any more by me.
I am fed up with warning members who cannot raise their comments above insulting others in derogatory terms.
If you cannot express yourself in a more intelligent manner then expect the worse

Huzzah! This was something that always annoyed the crap out of me, but I assumed everyone would have a small fit--like they usually did if I stuck up for gays or women. ;-)
Question...what if they're not so much calling each other "gay," but saying something is "gay." My concern wasn't so much that someone who was ignorant in the first place would be upset at being called "gay," but that gay folks on the board would be bothered by it. I have gay friends in real life and they don't paryicularly like the usage of a term to describe them as being an insult. It's like saying "Stop acting like a chick" to a man. It's more insulting to the woman than it is to the guy. Know what I mean?
Either way, big ups to Pain for not tolerating stupidity, in all its forms. :drinking:

Indeed. This bugs me too. If the best words you can come up with to describe something thats whack are "gay" and "retarted" then I wouldn't be insulting whatever the item is.

I'm glad we're not tolerating calling people gay or retarded anyhmore.
Any use of the word c**t as an insult will resort in an automatic life ban as someone has just found out. If you don't like it then i'm afraid that is just tough luck. An expanded vocabulary is always more effective in my experience.
There will always be flirting between members here, especially when The Blind Dead is involved, however there are limits to what language I (or BZN) will tolerate.

he also never let up on insisting that "this is a public forum, and I have the right to be here" yet he failed to recognize the fact that this place is moderated and the folks who hang around and chat here are generally very polite to each other, even when in disagreement over something. he seems to feel that it's his right to insult anyone and everyone, whether over being told to calm down or to try being polite, or just when someone offers an opinion about a movie that differs from his...hey, we're all here for discussion, right? that's why it's called a Discussion Forum. some people just don't get it.

This is not a public forum. This is a private forum that the site owner graciously allows the public to use. There's a huge difference.
As for "having the right to be here", show me where in the Constitution it says you have the right to use somebody else's stuff without their permission and without compensation. If a restaurant can arbitrarily refuse service to someone they don't want around, then a website owner sure as hell has the right to refuse to let someone post on his forums.

LOL! You're absolutely correct chewy. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/bzn123/Smileys/Characters/1bnz_smiley.gif
Kev (Dead Kev (http://www.allthingszombie.com/forums/member.php?u=1)) addressed that attitude in an announcement a longtime ago... He said that as long as he pays the bills around here, he has the say around here... Too bad that part of the announcement was taken down.
To further clarify things.....
The forum is considered 'public' in the sense that anyone is free to join, but it isn't 'public' as far as to what you're free to say and do... Again to reiterate Kev's position, "when you start paying the bills around here, you can run this forum anyway you see fit."

If that meant getting the site back up and running fully, I would gladly do it... but I digress.
Simply put, though, I agree: There's no such thing as "freedom of speech" in a privately-owned domain. People have no right to come into my home, for example, and spew everything that they wish. In my house, I have the right to tell you to shut up or get out. You have the right to do that on public property, but not on private property.
So before people start whining about "freedom of speech", they should think about if they would want me to go into their home and say everything that I damn well felt like without regard to them or your family.

Before you post something you might regret, take a deep breath and realise it is just the internet. Further acts of idiocy will just result in permenant bans with no warning.

Out of curiousity, why are the moderators so quick to lock threads here? I wanted to ask a question about the Tobe Hooper Zombies becoming Wicked Little Things in the Tobe Hooper thread, but wasn't able to because the last post was. "question answered" and the thread was locked. Now from past history if seen if I started a new thread to ask the question some one would probably lock it stating theres already a thread about it. But that's locked.
Is it a bandwith issue? I'm just curious because posting has slowed greatly here over the years and it's a bit fustrating to want to post and ask about something I read here, but unable to.

That all depends on the thread in question.

Sorry about that MF... I didn't see the point in keeping a thread like that running, since thread question was immediately answered, and "Tobe Hooper's Zombies" project never got done to begin with.
Now from past history if seen if I started a new thread to ask the question some one would probably lock it stating theres already a thread about it. But that's locked.
Don't be so hasty... You're in luck today... In matter of fact, there are two threads still open where you can ask your questions:
Tobe Hooper's Zombies (http://www.allthingszombie.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3606&highlight=Tobe+Hooper+Zombies) (soon to be history)
zombies aka wicked little things (http://www.allthingszombie.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12686&highlight=Tobe+Hooper+Zombies)
Is it a bandwith issue? I'm just curious because posting has slowed greatly here over the years and it's a bit fustrating to want to post and ask about something I read here, but unable to.
There no BW issue that I'm aware of... If there is a lack of activity around here, it's due to several factors, but the BW is not one of them.
