    Don't forget anything that people may disagree with. That is a big no-no

      I haven't seen anybody being berated for posting about 10-14. 1, 2, 9 are no-nos, though I don't get involved in flame wars over them. There are any number of programming posts in the Lounge, and I don't mind as long as they aren't "Urgent! I want to read two text files and vertically merge them. Important! Plz email the code to hxxqz@yahoo.com".

      A fair number disagree with that. ;)

      Cheers, Vikram.

              So if I repost a new link of a video on youtube that gives news about new hardware for watching a movie in 3D of an israelian l*****g the balls of a nude palestinian to illustrate a programming question about filtering might-be offending web content on my current work issue (because I am obviously a sysadmin), I would get into troubles ?

                                    I don't understand it either - the wuss has left the place so I assumed t***e-posts would be all over the place. (I used *s because the "hidden" word is very dangerous). But hey, those "So, it's Friday posts" are so great. Who wanna laugh, cry or being challenged in other ways when we can read about what family member our fellow geeks are gonna visit next Saturday, or what decaffeinated drink they are gonna share with their buddies for Sunday night football etc. etc. etc. Great stuff. Maybe the idea is to make CP like Vista...uninspired and dull?

                                      You forgot Global Warming. I posted about it in the Lounge and got flamed for it. Which actually proves that Global Warming is the new religion!
