Unfortunately, they may then end up getting blocked...
> Your requests for civility when you change your definitions of civility are confusing. When you don't have your 'laws' locked into place then how can the players know how to play this game? When does this stage of the experiment end Dr. Bob?
This isn't a stage of the experiment. The "laws" here aren't fixed for the same reason that the laws in the real world aren't fixed.
> I'll put it into consideration that some adults here are offended by the usage of the occasional dookie, urine or copulation (sh*t, p*ss and f*ck for those who can't figure out the civil versions of those words according to the April 2003 version of civility written by Dr. Hsiung).
Thanks, but I just asked you not to use language that could offend others, so I'm going to block you from posting for another two weeks.
