@delamitri The 2mooob's readers are looking for the dirt in the details, the pink in the ponytails and the scandal of the stallions.

How well hung? the drugs? the rock n' roll nights (and morning afters)?

I think there is enough there to warrent a reality series.

Hard copy!

Under no circumstances do I allow my avatar, my words, even reference of my actions to be included in this sordid rag.

Furthermore I believe it to be nothing more than a subversion of ToS rule 5.

As such, Moob is harmful to the site and actually is bad PR and acts to inhibit communication and hospitality.

I will tirelessly oppose the Moob fake news as it is destructive trolling.

Actually A.H.N, the name is the 2MOoOB Enquirer (know your enemies and Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer).

I don't think you have a copyright on the image you use as your avatar and your words on the forum are open to interpretation to anyone and everyone. If you wish to provide further insight as to the meaning of the words or the "FAKENESS" of the original interpretation, then I suggest you get involved OR stop talking about it.

The 2MOoOB Enquirer is a space for ALL members to submit facets of creativity in whatever form that they choose. It is an open space of self expression and all submissions will be considered solely on their merit.


The 2MOoOB Enquirer promotes mature adult FUN through the a pen whose ink may be charged with lampooning, irony, sarcarism and ridiculousness but not with malace.


The 2MOoOB Enquirer invites communication from all viewpoints, in all forms by all members. Hospitality is the concern of hotels etc. It is not a "welcome mat" for new members as they wouldn't know the personalities included in the pieces.

@AnhedoniaNightmare TBH I have received numerous complaints from you about the Enquirer. Nobody else has come forward to back your accusations up.

Can you please provide some data as to what members I have run off this site - ever?

But I know for a fact that you had a hand in forcing a MOD to leave.

I think we all know who is bad for the site and who isn't.

@..box.. Last time I checked, satire and parody were protected forms of free expression and as such exempted from the application of defamation and libel legislation.

Defamation is a believable false statement of fact that causes material harm.
Satire is “the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.”

In other words: defamation is a malicious lie passed off as truth while satire is a humorous skewering of a cultural or political event – regardless of whether or not you agree with the viewpoint.

Hustler Magazine v. Falwell is the applicable judicial precedent, where the US Supreme Court decided unanimously that pure satire/parody is protected by the First Amendment.

There are several more cases that have dealt with the issue, which I am not gonna bore you with. The common element in deciding between defamation and satire is the reasonable man test. If a “reasonable person” could realistically construe a satirical work as a truthful representation of facts. There are several indications on the truthfulness factor that have been put forward by the courts. Not gonna bother you with those either unless it becomes necessary.

@JudgeDredd If that were true, then anyone could be like Crutchbender and box and post a rape edition describing how they raped all the female members and impregnated them. Then just say, "it's satire folks...calm down".

There are far worse things they could say.

Tell me, how many new people would be attracted to the site having read that? How many people would just leave if Crutchbender described them masturbating to being dominated by Crutch.

This is as low as I have ever seen a troll tolerated.

If what you claim is true, then how does that apply to a forum? This is not a nation guaranteeing natural rights.

In effect, there is no ToS as all one has to say at the beginning of one's comment: this is just satire. And then attack away.

One could write any bigotry, and misogyny, attack the site, just be saying it's satire.

@AnhedoniaNightmare Based on the jurisprudence concerning the subject matter, the courts have provided several guidelines in order to distinguish between malicious opinion and satire. I will only mention the main ones that qualify as general guidelines:

1. Use of an insolent tone is a relative indication that the story is not straight news (it used to convey that in a more certain manner, but the use of such tone by the alternative media in the past 3 years have robbed this indication of its certainty)
2. The context and type of the platform to publish the story, including whether the platform has a history of satire or parody, provides with near certainty the factor of seriousness. i.e. MAD Magazine
3. Is the story in the news section, the opinion page or an advertisement?
4. Use of an unorthodox headline will alert readers from the beginning that the story is not straight news. (not applicable to clickbait)

@JudgeDredd Okay, and what are the ramifications on the marketing of the site when a rape fantasy is published as "satire"?

Either creeps come to visit and thus more trolls.

Or you lose female members and many other community members.

Meanwhile strangers go, "Wow. They have no Terms of Service there".

Just because one may write garbage does not mean one should.

Imagine three Ku Klux Klan members see what is happening and write a "satire" demeaning minorities and post grotesque caricatures, then state..."No worries...this is just satire"!

What is in moob next month? A "satire" on Jews, Muslims, Africans, Greeks, etc?

@AnhedoniaNightmare Do you have an ownership stake at this website? Are you engaged in a position for the site that would make the public image of the site, your primary concerns ?

My point is that neither you or I are responsible for the management of the site. As such we cannot enforce our views on what diversity should look like. And the ToS is nothing but an indication of the acceptable conduct. In the end of the day the Admin could very well decide to do away with the entire ToS and ban all of us for the fun of it. There is no law that prohibits taking any decision regarding your property.

Insofar as the KKK example, I think you misunderstand the definition of satire. The condition is not on your proclamation that the story is satire but the understanding of the reader had he been a reasonable person.

@JudgeDredd Would a satire of Africans with big lips and appearing inferior be perfectly allowed as satire?

Answer the question.

Would that harm the marketing of the site plus attract the trolls to the site?

Answer the question.

It's not a legal question. It's an ethical question and a economic question.

If you want to get bigots and misogynists to visit the site, then the moob "satire" would be a vehicle for doing so.

@AnhedoniaNightmare I will answer in the order you have provided:

1. Yes, any ethnicity can be subject to ridicule. I have seen caricatures in the newspapers with Greeks wearing their traditional uniforms and made fun of. Did it bother me? Not in the slightest.

2. What is the definition of a Troll these days? Cause it seems to me the definition has been used to identify any person of dissenting opinion. And in any case, you cant prohibit people from engaging in antisocial behaviour. In regards to the marketing, it entirely depends on what kind of image you are trying to relay to the outside world. A platform for all, a platform for politically correct users, a platform for trolls?

3. Bigots and misogynists are already here. But this is a subjective determination. They may be bigots and misogynists in relation to my own set of beliefs but not in relation to others.

@JudgeDredd Based upon your answer then bigotry can be hidden in satire, thus hate speech is protected on the site, thus there is no Terms of Service.

It's a boilerplate text that is decided based on whims.

Any ethnic group, gender, sexual preference, spiritual or nonspiritual belief, may be satirized with no consequence IF it is labeled satire.

Perhaps the editors and contributors of Moob should contact homophobes and the neonazis and similar hate groups. They always need people who can write content.

Moob could write an issue where four members are all family members commiting incest and sodomizing each other. Then state it's satire so don't get your feathers ruffled.

Moob could write an issue where four members are crazed pedophiles raping an orphange.

Moob could write an issue where four members are terrorists who mow down Muslims and bomb a mosque.

@AnhedoniaNightmare As I said before, the ToS are nothing but an indication/guideline on acceptable conduct. They are the reference basis whereby the Admin can use to render a decision. The admin is not bound to the ToS. The admin is free to take any decision he deems fit. The burden of decision comes with the ownership.

Anything can be subject to satire as long as it is labeled and perceived as such by a reasonable person.

@JudgeDredd Translation: The ToS is based on whims.

I do not think the vast majority of minorities would have any recourse under such broad acceptance of "satire" and that it makes a total mockery of a Terms of Service.

@AnhedoniaNightmare True but you are not supposed to have any recourse against satire. Had this been the case Pratinas, Choerilus and Aeschylus would have been executed on sight back in 500BC, especially when at the time the object of satire was the Gods themselves. Instead of that satyr plays were a requirement for participation in the Athenian Dionysia. Three tragedies and one satyr play were to be performed by each playwright in the festival.

@..box.. Thank you for the offer but I would have to decline. It is true that when justice goes overboard it usually does so in such a fashion and flair that it becomes comedy gold on its own. And in the past, we did have the Stella Awards published on a yearly basis with the most ridiculous legal claims and judgments rendered in US courts. Its quite hard to beat that.

Besides, the real comedy these days is in the Politics section and specifically in the White House interactions. And you don't need the label of satire to have a laugh there.

Gimme a break, the amateur dramatics from either of them aren't anything new, one of them "left for good" (again?) just a few weeks ago so my guess is be they'll be back playing the victim before we know it, claims of ignorance from others however are either cases of misplaced trust, being ill-informed or just downright duplicitous because everything they've done so far has been visible on this forum for weeks and for all to see.

Moderating is very much a thankless job but this current situation is of nobody elses making but their own, they're both adults with their own free will so blaming the people they were stalking, harassing and attacking is ridiculous.
A moderator abusing the position to preemptively chat ban people they're both attacking is an abuse of power, a moderator sharing personally identifiable data garnered from this site in order to stalk and harass someone through multiple social media sources isn't excusable under any circumstances, I don't care which way you slice it, it's really uncool to pull that sh*t, invasions of privacy like that are serious matters, I'd be pissed enough to be looking at legal options against both of them if it was me.
