Resp:18 but haven't you noticed? The only functionality that counts is
the  Agora forum; anything else is only if it doesn't bother the
half-dozen  originals. When the Agora dies, they will take the server
offline. Or the  half-dozen originals will croak it, and their heirs
will have no idea what  Grex is, that it existed, or that they need to
pay the power and DSL for  it, and it will be unceremoniously cut off.

There is always the risk that people read this and decided to see how
far they can push the situation.  "Watch me do this!  Are you going
to do anything about?"

I suspect the chance of anyone posting illegal photos or video here is 
small. Can the board be comfortable with a small risk?  I'd be happy to 
let them decide. 

There may already be illegal material present here.  I suspect there 
aren't a lot of off-the-map sites where it's possible to anonymously 
store and share images.  And, really, if we allow such image content the 
most we can say is we haven't become aware they are here, not that they 
aren't here. And yes, common carrier laws give us some protection, and 
our attorney will help us sort it all out.  You know, the attorney we 
have on retainer.

If we are vigilant, looking at files to check all is well, then we have 
an obligation to continuously monitor such activity.  Good luck with 
that.  

If we aren't checking then we are crossing fingers all is well.  Good 
luck with that too.

But we've had this discussion before.  I'm good with whatever the board 
decides but they really should come to a decision.

resp:20 Indeed.  So what's your solution, given that they can push the
limits with *any* postable content?

resp:21 Umm, didn't you post classified information a few agora's back just
to prove a point?

Yep, that same point was made by the NYT's and scads of other sites 
around the world. Good point, too.

resp:21 Mary doesn't think the VOLUNTEER BOARD MEMBERS deserve any 
additional risk. But volunteer system administrators deserve as much risk 
as is necessary for her to prove her "good point".

I don't know why Mary's opinion on anything involving Grex's governance 
should even be considered.

resp:24 So it's okay when you do it, but we should ban images, and only
images, because at some point some one may post something that ... what again?

Resp:#25  That's the way it works.  If you think my opinion is whacked you 
say so and/or feel free to disregard my comments.  I expect nothing else.

Resp:#26 There is a reason an all-text Playboy magazine has never caught 
on.  We disagree, Dan.  That's okay.  As I've said multiple times now - 
the board should decide this one.

resp:27 It's called the Penthouse Forum.

By all means keep posting.  You are the existence proof for how silly this
whole issue is.
