OK, I now think "Moloth" means "shtanky mouth funk". From now on, whenever I see "Moloth", I will only LET that mean "shtanky mouth funk".

Oh wait... I need to find an example with more contrast here. Laughing


*shrug*

for all you know, "Moloth" could mean "track down and ass-rape gnosis"... but i don't think you'll find many people that will share that particular definition. Razz


Wrong. We all know that "Moloth" means "fucking moron"... Snakeman


i kinda want to do the whole KnoB-spiel.. but, meh... we all know it by now.. lol.

THE RULES

1. No threats.

I would argue that excessive language directed in a derogatory manner at a single party does absolutely nothing to contribute to intellectual discourse on this forum, or for civility for that matter, and could be construed as threatening.

I think that the out of control flame wars on this forum are a detriment to, rather than conducive to "free speech".

Like FlatEarth1024's very first reply, I'm ambivalent on this issue.

I'm of the conviction that free speech also includes people shouting obscenities on the top of their lounges at other people, although I understand how counter-productive that is to free speech itself.

I guess it's a question of tolerance.
