 :sleeping: maybe?

We could allways institute a fining mechanism for people who post in the wrong form.   :poopoke:
It could be like some thing like my parents “swear jar”, you know the kind, it’s were you put money in a jar every time you use a swear word.  I believe my parents raised enough money from me, to take a Hawaiian vacation.   :roflsmiley: :roflsmiley:

 We could always use the money to raise funds for our special project (hint hint)  :working:

I know a guy whose mom always yelled "Five bucks!" every time he swore. That was the donation to the jar in their house. As an adult, if he smashed his thumb with a hammer or whatever he would yell "Five bucks!"

Everyone thought he was nuts until he told us the story.  :roflsmiley:

Institute a Kangaroo court-similar to the swearing jar, put a price on each offense, this is a surefire way to raise money for something big.  Tent for Carlisle,dinner something along those lines maybe?  Just a thought but would be ough to enforce!  I think for the most part, the regulars post properly.

 :iagree:


 I know it's all in jest.  :grinyes: The regulars are usually good about where they post, but some of the Newbies just throw everything in the main board and let the moderators move them.  :screwy: I don't know how we can prevent that.  :clueless: The only thing that REALLY is annoying is if the same person posts the same ad in several threads, as was the case a couple of days ago. I know the moderators get annoyed, and believe it or not, it raises a hair or two on my neck.   :eek7:   :lol:

Email the photo of MEK in his pimp outfit to all the offenders. One photo for the first offense, two for the second offense and so on.

It will stop in no time.  :bigsmile:
