The popular IKEA stuffed shark is back!

Wallie the Whale (old school WATMMers will know who I am talking about) watch out!

When this website encouraged creativity rather than banned anyone subversive? So now we just post memes at each other? Yeah brother, good times.

You can be creative without delving into subversiveness that makes people uncomfortable or is not appropriate for the workplace. Try again.

Creativity requires a pushing of boundaries or you suffer from what the poet Czeslaw Milosz identified as ‘an attachment to ethics at the expense of the sacred’. It has always been ironic that the owner of this board never understood it.

You can certainly be creative and push boundaries and still maintain an ethical stance - and to be honest, ethics are a personal decision but there is a baseline that most reasonable people understand is within the realm of good taste/appropriateness.

And I think you are confusing the limits and rules for this forum, which benefit everyone as being the same as my own.

It becomes confusing when a thread has been made celebrating a creation of one of the banned members. We have gone full circle so that’ll do.

Just because I'm referencing something from WATMM's past by a member who chooses (yeah, that's right ) not to be here shouldn't be confusing whatsoever.

it's not confusing, it's just disgraceful.

Then bring it up with Fred, he ain't banned.

There are places on the net where you can push at boundaries to your hearts' desire. There are appropriate times and places for this pushing at boundaries, and different ways to do so (Aphex vs VSnares approach to pushing at boundaries for example).

In general, the community here is fine with the sort of limits that have been agreed upon and are generally upheld. If you're looking for cock'n'ball torture to push boundaries, this ain't the place though.

Another member banned for no reason. It's a disgrace

I don't care

this place is boringer now for sure

Why exactly does this exact same topic need to come up every 3-4 months?

No one has been banned recently - and honestly, without knowing the context of any banning yourself, you're really not in a position to comment on it, are you?

You seem to take issue with this place, but yet still participate - I think you need to reconcile these two opposing views...
