There has been a new board started on BFT that some of you have expressed an interest in. It will not be for everyone and is restricted to 18 years old or older, you must also have made 100 post min. or have been a member for one year. Here is a link to the board:

[cool][#0000ff] It is set up to allow the use of profanity and the posting of pictures that might offend the "average" BFTer. It is not a fishing board. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I still can't understand the need for such a board on BFT and I registered my opinion on the Moderators' Board (to no effect). It will be interesting to see how long the novelty lasts. I have better uses for my time and energy.[/#0000ff]

So what is a post minuet? I have 90 plus post and still cannot view this. I think I am "mature" enough to handle this board. Why "moderate" this?

As Wiperhunter said in his above post, to gain access, you need to email the webmaster at the given link to get access to this board.

A post minimum is there so we can look back at the post you have made to try and determine if you are indeed 18 or older. Sometimes that is all we can use to try and determine your age, unless we know you. You ask why we moderate this? Are you asking why we moderate the new board or are you asking why we don't just let anyone into this new board? All boards need moderation to some degree no matter what or where they are. We restrict entry to this new board for the reason stated above, you need to be 18 years old or older.

i can see where TD is comming from, but some times i like to vent in an "anon" enviroment and i dont use the most polite words. if it is really that big of an issue to some one, then that person may choose to not view the material. if it offends them its already stated that it is for mature members only.....

You are so right Zak, this new board is not for everyone but for those that want something a little different, it is a change of pace. If you do not get a response in a couple of days to your request to enter this new board at the Email address above, let me know, I'm sure I can help.

Zak,
If you, or any of the other "mature members", post anything of any value over there, let me know. I may want to join up and read it. But I ain't holding my breath.

Me too Pat. If I've got an issue that needs that kind of approach I'd as soon handle it face to face.
