    Another one of my threads deleted? O.k., bracing myself for the next ban then, anytime soon.

    It is very suspicious that, since the Boston Lard, with his suspicious
    obsession for 'protecting' 13 year olds, launched his crusade, some users
    popped up out of nowhere, e.g. Landisqueek, Cheney69, Red Nigh, etc.

    Meh, I love playing chess and this site is awesome for that; sadly I also
    like a laugh every now and then and find like minded people in the GF. If
    someone doesn't like my humor then, well, let them enjoy the lame,
    flavorless, passive aggressive, empty spamming of the PC army.

    There is a distinct difference between "PC" which is seen as the inability to speak critically about certain topics and politeness, which makes life so much more pleasant.

    Outrageous humor is a way to address sensitive topics critically.

    There is also a distinction between "humourous" and "embarassing".

    That distinction is in the mind of each viewer. Or has the Academy of
    Science issued a criteria?

    All in all, when it's about artistic expression, it is better to err on the side
    of excess rather than prudence.

    It keeps the world moving to push boundaries.

    I like to call a spade a spade.

    Indeed, that implies clarity. But one can call a spade a spade without insulting people.

    The first is on the level of factual information, the second is adding a negative valuation and tends to demean.

    Every time you insult someone you reveal your character and your value system.
