We're a welcoming bunch here at The Playground, so don't be shy.
Start a "Hello, my name is [screenname]..." thread, and tell us a little bit about yourself, and what drew you here.
Welcome!!!
(And once you're an old hat here, be sure to welcome the newer kids in school when they say hello, too.)

Before Playgrounds were rubberized, bubble-wrapped, and childproofed, there were ... a few simple rules.
Our Playground Patrol procedures will strive to apply superior modding, Admin responsiveness, and fairness - aimed at producing the best user experience possible. YOU are a key ingredient in helping achieve that aim.

Know some real progressives who feel they were DUped? Tell them this is a safe place to air it all out. Here, 9/11 truth, LGBT rights, animal rights, and other truly progressive causes are not DUngeons.
You have my personal word of honor on that.

| Reconciliation & Truth: In That Order, Like We're Family
Protected forum
I think Senator Leahy and likeminded sorts have done an admirable job of championing the idea of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission, modeled after what South Africa did after Mandela was freed and apartheid was coming to an end.
But in a Family, doesn't Reconciliation often precede Truthtelling?
Even Admin is fair game here.
