Current Poll Is inappropriate, disgusting, stupid.

Having problems with the board or the online guidebook?

I think it's one thing for certain forums to have topics and themes that are raunchier, but it's a little different when it's the poll on the front page.

This site is used by almost everyone who makes a trip to the Red. And although that poll might be normal conversation for a number of climbers in the Red, I think it's safe to say that it's not what the majority would talk about, or would want to hear about.

Have we really ran out of climbing related things to talk about on here?

yes. please search any topic, and its covered.

but I do agree front page seems a bit much.

maybe we need a 'I am 18 or older" button to click before coming on here? (no pun intended.)

You do realize a new poll will bump that off the main page?

As usual, all we need is another meaningless poll posted from someone about belay technique or which cams are better whose major source of belay/climbing experience is top rope belays at the gym for the 6 months they've been climbing.

Sadly, I am not qualified to post such a poll.

I agree that posting all polls on the front page is kinda stupid. Also, all of these "announcements" are posted, but they really aren't announcements.

sounds like someone voted ‘yes’. It’s ok, really.

Being physiologically able to do something and achieving it are two different things.

I am going to need to see a reference before I believe that one.
Are you serious? It's essentially private property. They can do whatever they want. I hope you understand how the Constitution actually works...
I hope so to since i studied poli sci with a focus in law and am a paralegal. Try looking up Ashcroft v. ACLU, it might help you out. Also if you need a credible website oyez.org is a good one and you can read the brief there straight from the Supreme Court Justices of the United States. :wink:
