New place!

[ostarella]

Okay, now that the dust has settled... ;-)

One of the consequences of the debacle on DS is that, even though another ban is in place, no one can really be sure how long it will last, and many people have already left for good, not wanting to deal with it any longer. Well, a new "Dirky place" is starting up, an informal "watering hole" where people can join in and relax, chat, laugh, joke, discuss, toss in some pics (can never get enough of those, right?) - all the good things from DS, in other words - and not have to worry about a certain troll coming onboard. Ever. So come on over, take a look, give it a shot - let people know it's there so they can do the same and hopefully meet up with old friends and new. :D

"I think that's the impression left by a certain someone, and unfortunately, some have carried that to the point of thinking posts truly are censored for "PC-ness". As I said, there are limits I feel comfortable with, because it is the official site, but those are limits I place on myself. The only thing that could even be considered "placing limits" I have ever seen placed by the admin are that we treat each other (and Dirk) respectfully. And I don't think that's unreasonable at all. And as I say, there are some limits that *I* think just come "naturally" considering the circumstances, but I also think, as certain people gradually disappear (due to lack of sites that will accept her), that idea of "censorship" will start disappearing."

Very well said. *two thumbs up* ;-)
I really enjoy DBC and feel like it's a second home.
I've gotten email friendships with some of the members there.
I'm also really delighted with the DB Fan lounge too. :-D
