Hi Hot Queen Coal!

I see you’re giving me a run for the money by appealing to a niche market (no snickering from the audience, please). Very nicely crafted, and I’m speaking as a professional writer.

I haven’t forgotten my promise to you…I’ve just had horrible writer’s block lately. (in case the voyeuristic hordes are whispering to each other, you should know better than to think Anthracite wants a mash note from a big ol’ hairy y-chromosomer. It’s something else.)

As for your concern about having the thread yanked, if they haven’t gone after me and my thread [Naughty Love Letters from Cheffie,](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=21348) they certainly aren’t going to come after you. My thread is loaded with letters that are at least as steamy as yours, and some that are fairly explicit. Just keep saying “First Amendment” and spit in their eye.

_warm, non-flirty hug_

Cheffie

WOW, you really can write.  
Write more and good luck with it.

Anthracite . . . damn. All I can say is, I hope someone warns ChiefScott ahead of time so he doesn’t bust a nut.

At the risk of being a party pooper, I’ll have to ask you all to tone it down in the future.

Although we’re pretty liberal here, we seem to be turning into the Penthouse Forum.

Besides, I’m in danger of losing my sainthood here.

Fair enough. But can you do me a favor (All you mods), can you go the following threads and ask them to tone it down a bit?  
[Adult Services](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33230)  
[A Complete List of Sexual Acts](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=32246) (That one made threadspotting!)  
[If given the chance, would you have sex with a dwarf?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33187)  
[Sex on the Brain](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33106)  
Ok, now I don’t have time to find anymore links, so I will just supply the names.  
The Smut Shop thread (Prism’s stories were explicit. It took Slythe WEEKS to move it to MPSIMS, and I don’t remember ever hearing a peep from you Euty)  
Love Letters from Cheffie  
Satan’s Ass (It’s closed now, but it too make thread spotting!)

Now, this is just a few threads with sexually explicit material, and two of them made threadspotting. Now, I don’t mind you asking Anth to tone it down, but let’s try to be a lil bit even, shall we? Una’s story is tasteful, and very well done. The last thing the other thread’s can be considered is tasteful.  
Before anybody jumps on my ass with “It’s their house, they make the rules”, well, I understand that. I just wanted to point out other threads that should be “toned down” a bit.

Gee pepper, that’s a pretty scrofulous bunch you’ve got this thread and “Love Letters from Cheffie” lumped in with. Thanks a lot.

What were you thinking, trying to use irony on a moderator? They really are going to go warn all those threads now, you know.

Sorry for using a your thread for an example Chef, it just slipped in there.  
Do you really think they are going to warn all those threads now?

</div>

pepperlandgirl, I looked at the other threads you mentioned.

[Adult Services](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33230)  
This was a thread where a poster was asking about various terms in the newspaper. This is a question that has a factual answer - which is what the Straight Dope is all about.

[A Complete List of Sexual Acts](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=32246) (That one made threadspotting!)  
This one is people making up sexual practices. I will grant that some of them are outside the bounds of good taste, but the sheer outrageousness makes them unbelievable. Also it’s in the BBQ pit which has a little more leeway than other fora.

[If given the chance, would you have sex with a dwarf?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33187)  
I don’t see anything as descriptive as I see in the OP in this thread. To which post are you referring?

[Sex on the Brain](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=33106)  
As far as I can tell (I didn’t read the whole thing), it’s double-entendres, again not too explicit.

_The Smut Shop thread (Prism’s stories were explicit. It took Slythe WEEKS to move it to MPSIMS, and I don’t remember ever hearing a peep from you Euty)_  
That thread was clinically descriptive, and again I don’t remember seeing anything as explicit as in the OP here. The reason the thread was moved to MPSIMS was not because the posts contravened board guidelines, but because there was no debate or opinions being asked.

_Love Letters from Cheffie_  
Haven’t read that one.

_Satan’s Ass (It’s closed now, but it too make thread spotting!)_  
That again was more of a “debate” or an “asking your opinion” thread, which in my mind is appropriate to the SDMB.

Compare a post in any of those threads to the following lines from the original post in this thread: the paragraph starting with “Holly’s hand began to rub higher along Amy’s thighs…”

I’ve read many posts in my day at the SDMB, and in my opinion this thread is in a different vein than all the others you’ve mentioned. It is deliberately meant to arouse the reader. None of the other threads you mention had that purpose. One could argue that because it is erotic it doesn’t deserve to be censured, but the problem is, if this thread is allowed to go without comment, at what point will a comment be justified? For better or for worse, the USA is a society in which pornography is deemed not appropriate for all audiences, and something that the government is justified in censoring.

I’m not “warning the thread.” I’m asking the group as a whole; it just happenes to be this thread that I’m asking it in. I don’t think I have to post it in every single thread that makes us a bit worried. Note that I haven’t either closed this thread or deleted it completely. But there is a line that we know we’re going to have to draw. We haven’t gotten there yet. I’m just asking nicely, please don’t let us get to that point.

Wow. I’m oging ot forward this on to a few other trekkies I know.

Dear **Eutychus55** ,

Thank you very much for the polite warning. I understand and agree with you. This board is not meant to turn into alt.sex.stories, and although most stories that members might post may be relatively tasteful and harmless, allowing widespread posting of erotica _could_ lead to a situation where the moderators must actively act as both reviewers and censors - thus adding even more work to your already busy jobs. That was not my intent at all, and I did not think my story was good enough it would attract so much attention. In fact I thought it might open me to several flames about my silliness.

I also thank you for giving the story a little chance and not closing it or deleting it yet.

I do, however, agree with **pepperlandgirl** ’s comments, and also respectfully contend that there are also some seriously sick and disgusting topics which are allowed to be openly discussed here regularly. “Munging” comes to mind as one which - well, better not to even think about it. But I do understand the difference also between a board which has occasional disturbing posts, and a sex story board. This board is not the latter one.

But that is not important, as it’s **entirely the board administration’s call** , and I **respect** and **obey**. But one thing did disappoint me about both yours and **Arnold** ’s posts: you didn’t say whether you liked the story or not! 🙂

Sincerely,  
Una

Anthracite, your story was fine. But I personally think it needed more pirates, for example a wooden-legged one-armed parrot owner. And then a treasure hunt! Preferably including a trip on a sailing ship. And what was with all that kissing? Ugh. Cooties.

Mr. Cynical - I wouldn’t recommend the thread that you just mentioned, unless of course you were referring to the recent Straight Dope column “[Is the world’s tallest building in North Korea? (21-Jul-2000)](http://www.straightdope.com/columns/000721.html)”

That’s a really good story, though I’m wondering why I wandered into the thread in the first place. :^)
