Off topic forum has been removed
      #186824 - 09/14/04 08:58 PM

We have decided to not longer have a forum for off topic discussion

Reasons: The fights, flames, problems between members, and the extra time needed to moderate a forum which in no way helps members with buying meds online...

We will only offer this forum in the VIP area.

Thank you

Is there another forum on the freeboard that politics can be discussed in a mature way? I think politics have alot to do with buying drugs online. Espically during an election year. I agree some of the posts recently have been way out of line, but that was such a great forum for other things such as jokes, and sharing other personal experiences in life. I am a vip member, however I just don't spend as much time over there because there are just not as many people.

I know this opinion is not going to be very popular. But if we can afford to use OP's, IOP's and buy money orders, we should be able to afford the $5.00 per month and join the VIP board. It would help to keep DB going, and more people would be contributing to the off topic forum on the VIP board. Just my opinion. (no, I do not work for DB and I struggle every month to come up with the money to use an OP).

I've got to agree with DB on this one. Glad its gone. If people want to discuss politics, there are plenty of other places to do it. You also have the option of joining the VIP side, where the political discussions are at least civil.

db has a valid point. and while people may scream ,"free speech!", we must remember that db is totally within their rights to change their rules. after all, they are generous enough to offer a free board at all, considering all the moritoring, work, and general upkeep they must do to maintain the site. and they didn't remove it altogether, just go to the vip side if you want to post on it. taking into hand the extra work and effort they expend just to handle that one particular forum i think it's fitting that it's on the vip side as i believe that no one should be forced to work for free. in fact, i find the membership dues more than reasonable when you think about the returns. everyone should join if only to support the site. thank you db!

cheers, c.(angel)

Any political issues that have something to do with buying prescription drugs can be discussed at the forums for news, laws and regulations, and other related topics

All political topics that have nothing to do with buying prescription drugs are off topic and not allowed.

The same goes for religion, sex, weather, and similar.
Lets stay on topic and do what we are supposed to do: help each other find the best sources for prescription drugs.

Note that the off topic forum was a test. It was available for a few months only. We have been online for a few years without the off topic discussions.

This has nothing to do with free speech.

As usual the last word on what is allowed remains with the moderators and how they interpret member posts and our site rules and guidelines

If you notice some threads to be disturbed by off topic posts: please press the notify modetator button.

Thank you for visiting our site and for contributing with your posts.

Although it will make this site a little less interesting, we are ALL being treated the same by DB so I see it as fair.

We use to contribute a little along before there was a vip section. The whole thing was more fun then.
We have a vip membership now but it's kinda like the seating use to be on a plane, i didnt smoke but i sat there anyway cause the people were more interesting.
