I like BikeJournal, too. It's kinda like a co-ed TE.
I spend about 1/5 my "forum time" over on BikeJournal. Mostly lurking. (I'm a big fan of Pansy Palmetto)
The moderators there are pretty quick to act, but they're also pretty quick here on TE.
I'm sorry you had a bad experience on that "other" forum, EastHill.
yeah, that joke would be ok told to me by a friend in private, but posted on a public forum it is pretty bad manners. And to attack you is worse manners.

I left the bicycling mag forum cuz there were just some really obnoxious folks there. They actually deleted me against my wishes from their 'club' on bike journal, cuz I wouldn't give them my mileage, and one fellow in particular, who often posted about how good his wife was in bed was obnoxious to me, so I came here. A lot of that 'bikeporn' crap was posted there too. It doesn't bug me that it exists, but I have no interest in viewing it. I log my miles on BJ, but don't hang out too much since their policies are too politically correct for my liking. There was a recent discussion if a link to the Onion should be deleted as offensive. PLLLLLEASE, we are all adults with a range of political views. TE strikes a happy medium, we all agree for the most part as to what is offensive and inappropriate.
I try to be as offensive and inappropriate as possible. :D
I believe I'll have another cookie.

did someone say cookie ??? :)
Confession time: My sentiments precisely. Early in life, I developed an obsession with porn. I was exposed at a young age to the Playboy's that a friend's dad had. I struggled with this well into adulthood.Quote:

Scripture says: "All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body."
I personally don't want to be exposed to this either.
For the record, I checked out some of the other forums...and they're not the same. I hope that you are knowing that I'm not trying to change the chemistry, but I enjoy my occassional visits...:) :)
"bike porn crap"
:confused:
I thought "bike porn" was just pictures of pretty bikes? I'm so naive...
On the 'other sites' bike porn are those pictures of naked women sitting on bikes...............Quote:
