Why do taboo subjects get closed on this forum?
Every time a discussion comes up on drugs, or anything else taboo, the thread gets closed.
I am just curious as to why we can't have a discussion on the war on drugs in America... Someone posted a very informative video earlier and I wanted to add to the discussion, but the topic was closed!! All the person did was post the video, no one was advocating drug use or recomending it.. so just what is the problem? Is it illegal to talk about drugs now???
I'm not trying to rant, but I just want to know why we can't discuss things like this in a civilized way?

I agree with you. You might try posting in the R/P section. That is where alot of serious discussions are.

Well if you read the rules (which you agreed that you did signing up) you should know the talking about drugs in againt the rules and threads will be locked/deleted.
Yes I don't understand too why we can't talk about it but I guess BB.com doesn't want to attract that type of audience. If you want to talk about drugs go over to yahooka.

Wow, we already have this post about once a week. Steriods are linked to BBing. Smoking weed and crack isn't. So fu<king just drop it already. There are plenty of other drug fourms out there. Go sign up, and while your there, never come back.

u neg me for asking a legitimate question and say i'm f***ing whining? very mature of you. i couldn't give a s*** about whether there are drugs discussed on the forum or not, i was just wondering what the possible reasoning was beyond allowing steroid discussion and not other drugs.
because steroids are related to bodybuilding? how much of the misc. section is related to bodybuilding? the whole idea of this section is that it's EVERYTHING ELSE. hence, if it's everything else, a legitimate drug discussion (esp. one that isn't advocating use etc.) would fall into that category. if u can't handle an adult discussion..well, then, that's just sad.

It's fu<king retarded though. These people sign up agreeing to the rules then they start bitching about the rules and how they should change. Well if you didn't want to obey the rules, then why the fu<k did you sign up?!?! Sure I can give him the doubt that he didn't read the rules (really, who does?) but I then told him why and they he cries about it and then tries to bring is the common responce "omg but then why are steriods allowed, they are drugs WTFBBQSAUCE!!!".

Stupid post...all drugs can be related to bodybuilding. Drugs physicaly effect your body...therefore they all relate to bodybuilding whether it be for good or bad is irrelevant. I don't think this should be a place to discuss drugs just to talk about drugs, but if you have a question related to how drugs might affect your bbing/health in negative ways it should be ok. Like lots of people post questions about whether or not smoking weed/drinking alcohol ect. will hurt their gains. I learned that you can use a vaporizer to greatly reduce the amount of smoke/tar ect. you take in when smoking from this forum, I think that's good information that's relevant to bbing and those threads still get closed.

i agree, we are all more or less students of physiology here and whilst some people are more informed than others, i think we should be able to talk freely about the subject so long as people dont give obiously wrong information and try to pass it off as legitimate.
If the moderators do indeed delete or lock threads which are informative and truthful, whether or not it is in agreeance with their opinions, then it is clearly censorship and undemocratic.

Who said this is a democracy? When was the last time there was a vote for mods, etc? There ain't.

So? What is wrong with censorship and being undemocratic? Is it against the law or something? Again, is this your website? The owner of the site can set whatever rules he wants. Clearly he doesn't want this site to be a drug discussion site. WTF is your problem? If you don't like it, leave.
