Why are threads that promote and advocate illegal drug usage allowed to permiate and exist? And for ALL to see? WTH is the matter with you people here.
StarGateWars Forums
These are the forums for the GateWa.rs family of text-based space-centred PBBGs

The only drug that should be promoted/advocated (if at all) is alcohol..

I'm sorry, but I was unaware that offense was taken by said thread. If you would like to report a thread or post, I can look into the matter.

Report the topic. If it isn't followed up by the section mods, and the report is closed, speak to the section GM. Then if that doesn't work, speak to an admin.

It makes it impossible for us to do our job if people circumvent this process and immediately complain about us not doing our jobs. This accomplishes nothing.

Being racist =! drugs
How does one define drugs?
Caffeine is a drug as is nicotine, along with marijuana, sugar and even bath salts.
try adding legality into the equation

Clearly there is an issue here...
Rules DO speak to illegal substances.
&
can someone get to the point before this thread goes south.
Or is this for the sake of argument...
FTR I am continually amazed by the acceptance of violence and drug use over sexuality and love.

d. Pornographic and criminal content.
Posting anything of a pornographic nature is not permitted on the SGW forums. Pornographic being defined as: Sexually explicit pictures, writing, or other material whose primary purpose is to cause sexual arousal (dictionary.com). The SGW forums are not the place for discussing or facilitating criminal activity. This includes arranging to carry out a crime or the posting of illegal images (including copyrighted property).
Consequence:
This will result in the issuing of warning points. Very serious comments will be given more warning points. This will be judged with input from the Forum Administrators and Moderators. In cases of criminal activity the Administrators will not hesitate to contact the authorities.
This is the only rule I could find which would be appropriate. As the drugs mentioned are illegal, discussion of them, even just "I love <insert illegal drug here>" should not be allowed IMO.

And if me being the arse that I am would have not said anything this garbage would and probably still will be allowed to continue. Un freakin real man in a public game forum where minors and young teens are abundant. Ya;ll might as well just ban me now because Im about to cuss everyone of you out especially admins for allowing this,,and WTH do we need a mod starting these kinds of things here anyways?

Incorrect. The rules speak of criminal activity. IE: Using Illegal drugs in a country/area where said is illegal
This is not a court of law where exactness is ever executed dude, this is a game forum, and we would appreciate your bias aside for your buddy there and remove this garbage, Thank you.
