Disappointed in the ToO

Post by Steve »

I just did a search for the phrase "physically mature" and was devastated to see that there are only six pages worth of results. That's only 102 posts.

For shame.

None of us can live up to AE's standards in maturity or in goatees. :(
To LGBT ToOers: The world is so much wider than your family and church. There are accepting people out there.

That wasn't his point though. We clearly should be mentioning AE's qualities more frequently in general, whether or not anyone else can emulate them. That's only 0.0098% of our posts.

But in the interest of fairness, only the posts made since this important issue came up should be counted towards the percentage of posts. It's hardly fair to count the pre-AE years against us. We didn't know any better back then, before we were enlightened.

That is an excellent point Catspaw and very correct. Unfortunately I don't believe there is a way to discount those posts from the calculations without querying the database.

Thank you, bookworm. Your agreement tells me that I am definitely on the right track. You will notice that I did not provide an alternate percentage for the very reason that you mentioned. ;) However, I think Steve brought this up more to guide our future than to judge our past (though he can correct me if I am wrong.) What action can we take from this point on to make sure that "physically mature" is a more key part of our community? That is the question that we must each take responsibility to ask ourselves.

We should require that everyone has to be at least 5'4 to ride.

The basketball curling gif is very confusing to me. Do all the people younger than me understand the meaning that is supposed to be conveyed? It makes me laugh and want to yell, "Hurry! Hurry hard!" but it does not communicate meaning in any other way to me.

No. I have no idea what it's supposed to mean.

I just did a search and only found 107 results. Either someone's getting a little too excited about deleting posts with phrases I love in them, or the search function isn't working correctly.
