^ Perhaps saying these things out loud instead of just posting a weird "reminder" at the top of the entire JFF section would be more helpful? I remember this was even brought up somewhere (probably the Shred room) and no one knew anything about it so it just disappeared into general white noise background. 

Well it would have helped to know what thread was in violation and what words or phrases crossed the line. Something what like you did just now (by posting directly in the thread) would have been more helpful even if it was just the same message that Greg posted. Just getting a general message posted at the top of the whole section with zero announcement that that "warning" was even posted doesn't really help anyone know what the issues are and how to stop them. Specifics over vagueness is always good in these matters, and those specifics don't have to call out anyone or any group publicly to make it obviously to the whole what the issues are. 

But this is obviously IMO and perhaps I'm just dense in these sorts of matters. 

Fair enough: So no more rape or sexual mutilation references. And try to keep the blasphemy under a level that would subject PA to any crusades, jihads, or other bellum sacrum.

Re: the topic

You would be amazed how much of that I actually encountered this weekend. Its funny being an old metal head who became a medical professional how many bands and song titles are just plain old medical terms. Its hard to be grossed out anymore. Bands seem more focused on the anatomic and pathophysiologic stuff when there is a whole world of actual medical devices and procedure that would be great band names.

Bone Fusion Dowel

Endolymphatic Shunt

Rigid Rod Prosthesis

Suprapubic Catheter

Thoracic Spreader

Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (how cool would that be in one of those unreadable metal fonts?)

Intraosseous Wire

Bone Nail

Bone Void Filler

Inflatable Skin Expander

Alloplastic Spermatocele

Fecal Management System

or Rectal Tube...if you prefer.

Thank you, and noted. 

And true. I suppose body horror is a good trope to mine especially for something like Grindcore. And having big fancy uncommon and/or unpronounceable words is almost like a level of 'cool' for various metal circles. And those are some good band names in there...I especially like Alloplastic Spermatocele, Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, Rectal Tube, and Endolymphatic Shunt.

I know for a fact your wife will think I'm a tool regardless.

But...I guess being I don't think the typical dirty words/concepts should have a stigma attached to them (in normal life, not speaking specifically for this board) I'm pretty free with the things that I say. (People in real life that know me fully expect that I can be overtly sexual or blasphemous or whatever if certain conditions call for it.) I guess I've thought this for so long it's all become normal for me.

I think we can all agree that Uranus is a topic that we all can discuss freely and with joy, comfortable in the fact that we are spreading SCIENCE! to one and all. 

What people do in the privacy of their own home is none of my business.
