Wow. Just... wow.

Fifteen pages.
Really? Fifteen pages dedicated to
this? I mean, I started at page one and figured, "Hey, this can't go on that long... They must have struck new ground on the topic, gone off on a tangent or something..."
But no. Aside from a few dust-ups between the passionate on definitions of pornography and such, it's pretty much stayed on topic and is in the same place as it started.
Let me save you all the suspense on how this thing ends...
These are the fundamental realities you're going to hit again and again:
1. I know they're clichés, but true: Different strokes for different folks. Agree to disagree. Variety's the spice of life, people. Understand that, appreciate it.
2. You have the right to express yourself and your views, you have the right to disagree with some and find kinship in others, you have the right to be offended and express that, but in no country on Earth, nor on this website or any other, nor in any reality that I know of, will you ever be afforded the right of freedom from being offended.
3. Nothing's going to change with regard to this matter in terms of how this site is run. I think that's been made clear:
a. Instituting new labelling policies for users sharing content is a losing fight against the trends of diminishing returns for any rules beyond what they have already, and user carelessness with respect to even established rules, and it would just make more work for Mods. That's not gonna' fly.
b. Forbidding banner ads that may involve nudity ignores economic reality.
Now, you can keep butting heads about how much you like chocolate alone or chocolate combined with peanut butter...
...you can keep working on what constitutes peanut butter, and quibble about "crunchy" versus "creamy" versus "smooth" versus whathaveyou...
...but it's not going to change the three points above, you'll wind up at the same place, and people will still eat what they like.
Now some are just here because they're passionate and have fun debating points, and that's cool too, but because it'll all wind up the same, please remember, it's not worth getting acrimonious.
Here's something I love:
I agree with you 110%!!!! It makes me sick how this forum is turning out! Tickling is tickling and Porn is porn! I can tell you this there are going to be some new videos made within the next year with REAL laughing and with NO PORN! REAL TICKLING FOR REAL TICKLE LOVERS. They will be made by two of our fellow forum members. There will be nothing fake in these videos. I just want to add this....I think it is great to know that other members feel the same way about tickling.
A bunch of people read this and got their shorts in a knot. But she has her views, and she's entitled to them. I'm guessing some chafe at the indirect suggestion that they're not "REAL TICKLE LOVERS", or the notion that what they like makes "ultimateticklee" sick...
Those are her views. Maybe she stated them in a less than diplomatic fashion. Maybe you disagree. Cope.
People, if you're here, feel free to find folks of similar interests and bond with them! Nobody requires you to do otherwise! Ultimateticklee, I hope you find more folks you can relate to, as I wish the same for all of you!
Here -- let me make it easier for you all to ID yourselves...
From
"The Book of Mad", Ch. "Tickling should be porn free", Post #223:
"Verily I say unto thee, there shall descend from The Great Congregation of The TMF, Two Tribes."
And unto Tribe the First spake The Cap'n,
"Thou shalt be called the 'Purists', for in thine own views and in keeping with thine own custom, Tickling, unalloyed by other pursuits or pleasures is among thy great Earthly joys and little shall sway ye from this thy path."
And unto Tribe the Second spake The Cap'n,
"Thou shalt be called the 'Mixists', for in thine own views and in keeping with thine own custom, Tickling shalt not be limited to it's own pleasure alone, but welcomes others to join it, and this confluence is among thy great Earthly joys and little shall sway ye from this thy path."
And lo, there was a schism within each of the Two Tribes, and from Tribe the First there was born a small New Tribe.
And unto
this New Tribe spake The Cap'n,
"Thou shalt be called the 'Ultra-Purists', for in thine own views and in keeping with thine own custom, Tickling, unalloyed by other pursuits or pleasures, and forsaking even bondage, is among thy great Earthly joys and nothing shall sway ye from this thy path."
And from Tribe the Second there was born a yet another New Tribe.
And unto
this New Tribe spake The Cap'n,
"Thou shalt be called the 'Strixtly-Mix'dly', and it shall be a silly name, but you shant f@*king care, and in thine own views and in keeping with thine own custom, Tickling shalt never be limited to it's own pleasure alone, but demands others join it, and this confluence is among thy great Earthly joys and nothing shall sway ye from this thy path."
And The Cap'n said to all the Tribes,
"Go forth, be fruitful and multiply... ...that is, if you're into that sort of thing." 😉
And The Cap'n saw that it was good... ...or at least tolerable for the time being.
😀
I love all you crazy people! Now
be nice to each other! Peace!
