Does this thread get the "thread that has gone most OT ever" award?  :D
It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.

A respected member here in a very polite way pointed out how some could take offense to it. This was also brought up before. Best to error on the side of caution.

IIRC you did raise concerns when I first started so you do deserve an honarable mention.  ;)

I would be careful using FTW, it has more than one meaning.  ;)

I am going to guess this: ForTheWin.

FTW?

For the win! Surprised that it hasn't been added to the acronym wiki yet. Does really no one around here use the term?

With all respect, I am curious what would offend someone about the image? Other than it not actually being CV, but his rebbe...?  Is it just that s/o might not like that person's image being used for a forum?

Don't understand what being an atheist has to do with being disrespectful.

Being an atheist isn't necessarily disrespectful. But saying things that are far from the Gra's ideology while using his avatar is. (no hard feelings CV)

it is disrespectful to the GR"A and his followers for an athiest to express his inevitably irreligious and therefore anti-Torah views while the GR"As picture is conspicuously placed directly to the right of each of said athiest's posts.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.
