    "Then that would make you bisexual."

    You talk as if you know me. You're sorely, sorely mistaken. I've fucked herms and trans people before, so that doesn't make me bisexual, by any means. In fact, that pretty much puts me into pansexual territory. I CHOOSE TO LIVE MY LIFE WITH A MAN. Key word - *CHOOSE*

    No, and I shouldn't have to. Did I have to message a moderator here to be able to post when I was new? Nope.

    I just did a CTRL+F for "Drew" "TF" and a few other things amongst the almost 5 pages of stuff. Not a single result showed up hinting at it, just people making jokes about it.

    TFD doesn't get moderated unless someone complains, so I don't know WTF you're on about.

    What's lower is FARK mods already banning people over on FARK for things being said here and on Reddit.

    So they get zero fucking quarter from me.

    "Reddit works just fine."

    Not even. For such a supposedly 'open' community, a ton of the bigger subreddits have fucked rules.

    Example, tried to post two days ago in r/aquariums regarding a problem I have. I have a new account since Reddits PW system is irreparably broken. Because I have a new account, I can't post in the aquariums section (and don't want to derail another thread with my issue) and AutoModerator removed my submission. Why? It thinks a self-post with no link, no brand names, nothing like that being mentioned, is SPAM.

    Well, here I am two days later, half my tank is dead.

    At least 4chan's /an/ managed to help keep half my tank alive.

    Fuck Reddit.

    I really think it should be a matter for the OS as well. Something at the more base levels of operation that make note of WTF is happening and log it. The database can have its own stuff, but it should also tell the OS, which should encrypt this stuff so only the truly authorized personnel can see it.

    Of course, that doesn't stop my 'mole' attack if the mole has that level of access.

    Uh, speaking as a former member of a few of those collectives, you do realize that they were operating outside of state law? That very same set of laws that the FG said they'd not interfere in unless it hit federal territory?

Even fucking MEXICO got this right and it's not even explicitly stated (it's hidden as the right to seek liberty, which is why you bust out of Mexican jail, they can't charge you with another crime.
