| SergeantGander 12/21/20 9:48:55 AM #2 | your wife's bf sounds like a generous guy :^) ok nvm that joke is too much sorry anyways that is absurd. I once bought a long time gf a pair of lululemon leggings for like ~$80 iirc, but they had a lifetime warranty so figured it was worth it for "multiple" pairs --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |

| SergeantGander 12/21/20 9:15:32 AM #4 | Sure it is...unless you want to live in a city and spend all your money on inflated rent without a great job to support you. I always see people complain about their $1.5k+ rent, and I look around my area, 30 mins outside nice city and see decent 1-3 bedroom rentals for $500-800. --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |

I wanted to reference Patreon along with Twitter in my original post too, but just wasn't sure if it was moddable or not... --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
| Topic | Curious about GameFAQs defines "porn" site? |
| SergeantGander 12/20/20 3:41:13 PM #11 | nothanks1 posted... the "official" rules (take with a grain of salt as it was a lead who stated it) is: you cannot link to a porn site, you cannot name a porn site if it ends in a .com, you cannot hint towards the name if it ends in a .com, you cannot have the name/logo showing in images/videos Thanks for this in depth response too! It isn't really a topic I discuss anyway, which is why I was unfamiliar with the rules I guess --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
| Topic | Curious about GameFAQs defines "porn" site? |
| SergeantGander 12/20/20 3:40:09 PM #9 | Anteaterking posted... If you linked to a twitter account that was pornographic you would also get in trouble. What happens if you mention an account name that has explicit content? Whether you mention it knowingly or unknowingly? I totally get the not linking directly to certain sites, but Twitter can be really explicit and the fact that it is fair game just seems odd. --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
| Topic | Curious about GameFAQs defines "porn" site? |
| SergeantGander 12/20/20 3:28:38 PM #1 | Haven't posted much lately and got modded for mentioning a subscription site by name, that some content creators use for porn. So, I went to the Message board rules and kind of left more confused... "Offensive Material Posting offensive content is not permitted on GameFAQs. This includes linking to or posting content containing sexually explicit material, promoting the sexualization of minors, explicitly promoting terrorism or hate speech, and images or video of real-world violence." I didn't "link" and I don't think that posting name of a site, that can be used for porn but isn't solely used for porn is the same as "posting content containing sexually explicit material" So, I guess my point is/are: 1) if posting the name of a site that hosts some explicit material is against rules, why isn't that clearly stated in the rules? (Is there a more in depth rule list I'm missing?) 2) the site mentioned has content behind a paywall. If that website which hosts some explicit content cannot be mentioned by name, why can other websites which host explicit content not behind a pay wall (i.e. Twitter) be referenced by name and linked to? (I'm not against Twitter being linked to/mentioned, but more curious about the blatant inconsistency here in the rules/enforcement of rules). Oops topic title error: about how* Edit: what is funny is the moderation wasn't even suggesting the site, or discussing offensive material, it was a quick joke. Didn't even think about the website hosting some explicit material --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |

| Topic | So much from Western culture is ultimately based on the Abrahamic religions. |
| SergeantGander 12/20/20 12:16:39 PM #32 | MaverickXeo posted... But does morality come from religion or something else? Some Christians argue the case that morality was instilled in humans by God. C.S. Lewis (author of Narnia books) also spoke about this in his BBC radio broadcast during WW2. He was a pretty staunch atheist, and when faced with the horrors of the war, and the question of what is morality/justice, where does it come from? He ultimately landed on the idea of a creator/god. --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |

| Topic | NJ gym owner still refusing to close gym despite mandate |
| SergeantGander 12/12/20 4:04:43 PM #37 | Balrog0 posted... Also, more masks and probably a much lower average exposure time, which are both relevant. True. I just think if the gym is able to reduce capacity and ramp up sanitation they should be able to remain open. Not be strong armed out of business by the government. 2020 has been a really hard time for a lot of people, and for many gyms are a way to blow off steam and preserve mental health. --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
| Topic | NJ gym owner still refusing to close gym despite mandate |
| SergeantGander 12/12/20 3:44:50 PM #32 | Balrog0 posted... It's about the usage of the space, not the space itself. Sure, less exertion and hopefully less perspiration (lol) happening in a department store, but imo there is also significantly less sanitation going on. If a customer handles an item there is a very little chance it'll be sanitized before another customer handles it. In the Inquirer article under the photograph of the co-owner spraying down equipment. CM_Ponch posted... I'm not sweating all over Costco tho Members sanitize their workout station/machine after use. Nobody is wiping off the (insert food item) they handled and decided not to purchase. Edit: also plenty of evidence out there pointing to the health/psychological benefits of exercising. Inthe summer/fall there was a case for "go for a run/walk" but in the northeast the days of everyone being able to get outside for workouts is coming to a close as winter sets in --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
| Topic | NJ gym owner still refusing to close gym despite mandate |
| SergeantGander 12/12/20 3:11:09 PM #19 | Mark_DeRosa posted... Id still feel uncomfortable if people arent wearing their mask indoors That's totally fine and if anyone else felt that way they were not being forced to go to the gym. I did find this in the ABC article though: "The owners have said they have taken steps to ensure social distancing, including taping off workout stations and operating at 20% of capacity and were also taking patrons' temperatures and requiring them to wear masks unless they were in the middle of lifting weights." To me I don't see how this is different from someone going to a Lowes/Target/Costco etc. So, why shut down one business, arrest owners, etc. and allow others to operate under new sanitation guidelines, that the gym is seemingly following? I don't see how someone going to Lowes to purchase paint for home renovations is any more essential than someone going to the gym. Imo I might even saying gym/exercise is more essential in some ways --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
| Topic | NJ gym owner still refusing to close gym despite mandate |
| SergeantGander 12/12/20 3:04:48 PM #10 | Mark_DeRosa posted... he is not mandating masks inside. Thats up to the individuals entering to decide* Also, in the article you posted, he is sanitizing equipment, and says all the equipment is sanitized multiple times throughout the day by the staff. On top of the sanitizing members are required to do after using a piece of equipment. They also mentioned that there is an air filtration system that was installed. --- LoL IGN: MsRaffensperger ~Dennis~ |
