Yes, you are correct, I have just registered after browsing around for a while.
I have seen many threads/posts that seem to allow for free-speech, mindless banter, witnessing, preaching, and whatever else is on your mind.
I was curious what all the Geno thing was about…yes they seem different, perhaps odd to some of you. They seemed quite polite, and tried to answer the questions that were asked of them in a nice way…much nicer than MANY of the other posts that I have seen here. So I am interested in the Geno? So what? There seems to be much worse out there than Geno, but there may be better also, who knows without finding out for sure?
Too bad that the threads they were discussing politely were quickly locked, hence stopping their speech. And yes, duh, I know mods can do whatever they want to any thread as they see ‘fit’. Blah blah blah…
Kinda silly when you look and see what else they freely allow around here…kinda makes you look bad…but of course, thats the way it goes, huh?
Lock this thread, delete it, ban me forever and a day…I dont really care, but I had to at least say something about what I felt was not the right thing to do.
Goodbye and have a good time.

Call me ignorant, but what is a “Geno”?
This thread is in the wrong place; should be in ATMB.
There’s a difference between “being open-minded” and “putting up with silliness”. Gaudere explained her actions quite well… the threads reeked of spamming and/or a small handful of guys trying to have some fun on a message board. Her closure, as she explained, was meant to be temporary… but I imagine that none of the Geno’s have chosen to E-mail her and explain themselves, which is why they remain closed.
I mean, really… “the light is grey”? As a wise, wise man said to me… “Are these guys Mimbari or something?”
I’m with you BooBoo316, what’s Geno?
If all the Genos killed themselves, it a cult like mass suicide, would such action thereafter be called Geno-cide?
Mussolini, for one, was much better also than the Genos, especially at squash and handball. But never, NEVER handball with a squash! Who can know, really, ever, for sure?

MY GOD!!!, Gaudere, you made them MUTE! I’ve never had a thread closed on me so I didn’t know! The vast powers the mods have. <sob> The Genos will never speak/write/post again! How could you do this to them Gaudere, HOW COULD YOU DO THIS?

[sub]no[/sub], no, NO!! After your contributions to the board, after all the things we’ve shared, after all the times we’ve laughed, cried, talked! The thread you started when my cactus died. The time SPOOFE started a thread that made soda squirt from your nose! You can’t go! It’s too much to bear. PLLLLEEEEAAAASE, please! Don’t withhold your sparkling wit from us, your loyal fans and minions! Remember that we’ve come to be addicted to the sparkling wit that could write pithy lines like “. And yes, duh, I know mods can do whatever they want to any thread as they see ‘fit’. Blah blah blah…”.
“Blah blah blah…”: what other poster could have penned those lines? Don’t leave us. Please reconsider! I ask you personally: Fenris to (what was your name again?)…um… strangely_normal. If you go, there will be a void in our hearts, a void shaped like (what was that name again? <checks>) strangely_normal. The board will collapse without you. Reconsider for all our sakes. Geno would want you to.
Fenris
Pyrrhonist: That pun has no place in a discussion like this. (It also made me exhale coffee through my nostrils. A bill for a keyboard will be sent under seperate cover) You should be ashamed of yourself. Besides, a more important question is “What sex are these people?” and can we tell without checking their geno-talia?
Fenris
I’m Geno-enly surprised at you Fenris
:eek:
wring
I can’t help myself. I got into the habit of making comments like that when I met those people while I was working in the human GENO-me project.
Fenris
well, it certainly would Genorate substantial interest!
I geno-flect before your excellent pun skills.
I’m Geno-rously tolerant about different religious and would like to read their creation myth in Geno-sis.
Stop!
What is a Geno? At least let me know, so that I can better understand the geno-ration of puns that follows my original request for information.
Remember that the Dope exists to push back the boundaries of ignorance… push mine back please… someone.
A Geno-ral of the Geno army will explain it all in their secret hidout in Geno-a.
My and my friend Genoy , have an agenoda here. We are of the Genoation that heard of the Genova convention from our parents (those whose genotic markers have identified us) Normally, genoial, we can become quite ungenotil when crossed. 
Just as an aside to the newer members, wring geno-rally wins these sorts of pun wars.
There is already a thread on this (the Genos not the puns) in the proper forum. http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=74748
How genorous of you Fenris :D, quite genotlemanly of you, too. but I fear we’ve let the geno ie out of the bottle on this one…
Dr Lao
I am indebted for your assistance… but I’m not sure that I’m at all comfortable with my new level of understanding re. Geno.
Nevertheless, consider my ignorance pushed back… if only a little way.
Many thanks
