Dayum! It seems many of us have to find something else to do this weekend. I'll have to come up with some other evil plot now.

Seriously?! An insurrectionist OP goes out for the afternoon, and returns to the refugee camp to find a thread of layabouts quipping about Guy Fawkes?! (Note: GUNpowder is most definitely against the TOU)
- You couldn't draft a manifesto?! - Design a prototype flag with embellishments you know you WILL NEVER USE IN YOUR LIFETIME?!? - Throw a load of camo/fatigue green in the washer?!?!

Under "Prohibited Content," it explicitly says we are not to "Advocate the violent overthrow of the government of the United States." As always, it's all about America. sigh............

Well, I was going to throw a load in but the dog is still upset about all the booms last night. She'd just pee on them when I tried to fold them up. She's bad that way.

Just to see if anyone is paying attention. ![:wink:](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Oh goodness, no-one takes any notice of New Zealand! We're just this little blip in the bottom corner of the Pacific - I cannot imagine ANYONE wanting to overthrow the NZ government, peacefully, violently, or anywhere in between. We don't have anything that anyone would want. Except Hobbiton, perhaps.
so no real point in posting about an attempt to overthrow NZ's government - no-one would believe it! ![:grin:](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/TKS2q_7siLiFtq0xPQvx.jpg)

I'm in for a revolution. My dh's great great great great great grandfather was a freedom fighter for Belgium and the first prime minister.
Maybe the reason why the TOU specified the USA is because that is where the pro boards are located. I do know that you can use the pro board to set up a private board where everyone needs a user name and password to even view. I guess that they've had problems with paramilitary groups talking about illegal activities.
I always thought it was Empress Lucy.

...If that doesn't work out, we could overthrow the Canadian government ![(rofl)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/rofl.png) Au contraire! Read it and and weep, La Mama de Juan: Advocate the violent overthrow of the government of the United States or other conduct that could constitute a fraud or other criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any applicable local, state, national, or foreign law or regulation.All international RefuPeas should forthwith submit ALL their countries' laws. Just private message ALL of them to Fairy Podmother. She'd welcome a respite from de-coding smileys. Brace yourself, Fairy Podmother.... South Africa has 11 official languages. And official signing for the heaing impaired. Ought to take care of all the empty server space... ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Q_m8lDOvc_3Le3r1GKdf.jpg) ETA: I love those bloomers!

Yeah, yeah...admonitions against porn, threats, abuse, stalking, drugs, the usual. But... Under "Prohibited Content," it explicitly says we are not to "Advocate the violent overthrow of the government of the United States."Did the OTHER board stifle revolution?!
(Not for nothin', we are also not allowed to "promote the buying, selling, or trading of firearms or weapons," so it seems pretty airtight.)* *If it is not readily apparent, this is a joke.Jeez, what does ProBoards have against treason? ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

Yeah, yeah, I've been up all night, trying to motivate some international RefuPeas to join "The Cause." They seem strangely obsessed with ironing.
