Take a deep breath. Let it out. There is one norm of ARC we forgot to mention. We take pride in keeping ARC as flame-free as possible, so as not to waste bandwidth or incite hard feelings. If you have a problem with someone here, take it to e-mail.
Chances are, nobody else wants to read it.
I want to talk dirty. Sex and violence. We like to consider ARC part of the Family. We don't tend to be very profane, explicit, or perverse. That's what alt.sex , talk.bizzare, alt.angst , and other such places are for.
