Comments
Basically - we don't want comments in the Jokes Topics. The rest of this board is for discussion. This one is for Jokes. If you just can't keep that snappy comment contained, copy the joke and take it over to the Drifting Topic (in the General Bullshit Forum) and discuss it there. Those rummies won't care. They'll laugh at anything.
Nasty?
This is one of those rare places where your foulest joke is welcome ... but not everyone is here for that. That's why we started the Nasty Jokes topics. Put your crude, rude, and Politically Incorrect stuff under those heading. We've tagged them as follows:
2. [Mature] is jokes you can't tell your kids. CAUTION: Profanity seems to be in all threads. They won't all be marked [Mature].
3. [Media] marks threads that will be ever-so-slow on dialup connections. Put all Pictures, Flash, and audio files in a Media topic[/ul]
Formatting
So, you got a cool joke in email, and no one else has posted it. Great! But before you put it in here, drop in into your word processor and clean it up a bit first. Take out those extra line returns, and fix the spelling errors.Then, Submit.
And those cute little smilies? Don't overuse them. One or two to a post is usually plenty.
Learn to use the Preview Post feature. You can check your formatting, see how your iB code worked, look at your spelling, and be 100% sure that you actually remembered to type the whole damn thing. If it still slips by you, make friends with the -EDIT- link. Yes, you can go back and add to your Post, or fix your screwup. So can the Mods, but we don’t know what you had in mind. Clean up your own messes, please.
