"We're trying to provide a respectful, non-judgmental place where girl lovers can get ideas out in the open. Hate-mongering just doesn't fit in with that mission. If you must disagree, please do so without being disagreeably rude. Again, it is often better to simply agree to disagree than to disrupt the spirit of the community."
"GirlChat is visited by thousands of individuals who will never post. Other persons passing through might be shocked at our celebration of pedophilia and hebophilia. They might become offensively vocal in making their keen displeasure known. Neither will it be unusual for many in our community to justifiably feel that the offensive poster needs a strongly worded and frank reply. Please attempt to be moderate in your own choice of terminology. We might never make many friends in discussions with non MAAs, no matter how gracious our response; but, we do well to remember that it is society that has brainwashed the masses. Using soundness of mind when speaking our minds in response to flames, foolish talk, and false accusations is seldom easy. But it just might be exactly this type of moderate argument that the neighbors of known pedophiles need to hear in order to use a modicum of decency in their treatment towards those of us who, for one reason or another, have been outed in our communities."
"No post will be deleted just because it disagrees with girl love nor with pedophilia. However the rules that apply to GirlChatters apply equally to non-minor attracted adults!"
I did not miss these words of guidance which successive Committees, as well as our MAA tolerant ISPs, have each (in turn) deemed important to maintain unchanged over many years. I think some miss the fact that we are discussing the implications of doing a disservice to the intent of one of the seven simple rules of FAQ; and, we cannot so equally weigh public opinion when we act-though we may temper the severity of our action as I have tried to so do.
While your opinion is noted, dear one, the existence of the above words penned so purposely, as you read these so stated in our rules, must overrule any and all disagreement by agreement of numerous Committee Members. Yes, the principles expressed in rule #3 is far more meaningful than would be an isolated assumption of Sheepy by itself.
Warmly, Shξξpy
