Drugs / Drinking And The Board
(Steps On Soap Box)
Yes, another long winded post by Scott but hopefully you will read it and comment accordingly.
Is it me or is there a over abundance of drug and drinking posts / comments on the board as of late ?
What is everyones thoughts on this ?
I won't dare put this in the FFA forum again because I do not want to be branded as a trouble maker again.
To a lot of the younger crowd I know the bad boy imagine that is associated with drugs and drinking so is that where we are heading or targeting ?
Sure I like to drink once and a while but I do not make discussions out of it, isn't that high school material ? And yes I know we have a lot of high schoolers on here but should we tolerate it and bring everyone to that level ?
Now drugs, I won't go there but in short I think we are way to tolerant to drug related issues on here. I am sure some of you reading this do them and that is your choice but should we chase off the majority of the members that don't do them just to look politically correct ? Who are we trying to appeal to here ? So what if you piss off a few stoners and alcholics, if they do not come back you cares they were probably useless anyway.
I just see the overall quality going down due to the general policy of being politically correct to these issues.. If this was just the case in the FFA forum it would be easier to take but it isn't. Who knows maybe everyone here smokes out and I am the lone non-user here, but I doubt it. I want to help grow this site into bigger and better things but it is not going to happen with the present image. Maybe I am full of myself and you guys could give to shits about what I say and that is your right but I have never been bashful.
In short, what imagine are we trying to protray here ? Who do we want to appeal to ?

I don't drink anymore....I don't smoke pot anymore....hell, I don't even smoke cigarettes anymore. Jeez, I sure am getting boring in my old age.
But, to answer your question, yes, there's a lot of it in posts around here. I atttribute that to the overabundance of young people on TR. Booze and drugs are really cool if you're not old enough to do it legally. After a while though, it looses its luster. You just have to hope that everybody lives through the craze until it is no big deal anymore.

I could care less who does what, but I do agree that these public posts portray a negative image to the site. This may sound relatively Communist of me, but maybe we should regulate those types of posts.

So far it seems as if no one has tolerance for the drugs and the drinking stuff is debatable.
With this in mind can we start killing the drug stuff all together since PM'ing people about it is not working ?
Of course we need Aharon to chime in on this. Not trying to be pushy but enough is enough.
