Yea, right. Around here we teach you to swim by throwing into the deep end of the pool.

Now, is that real Cuban rum or is it the Dominican Cuban rum? I can always get Cuban rum that isn't made in Cuba but the only time I've had Cuban rum made in Cuba someone brought it back from Cuba. I confess to having looked very hard having a preference for other forms of eau de vie (love fermented and distilled agave juice aged in oak).

A moderator, in my fairly infant understanding, lays in the wings waiting to pounce on and KILL people who post SPAM and otherwise spoil your pleasant environment.

If you're simply being mean (which also spoils our happy 'be nice' place), we don't kill you. Nope, we either torture you or give you lessons in how to be nice.

If you ask nicely enough, we'll torture you anyway. It's always good to have some practise!!

Steve, sadly on a daily basis CF is spammed by people trying to sell members everything from mobile phones to Viagra. Even worse, some of these posts are placed with the intention of relieving members of their hard earned dollars without supplying goods

Hopefully most of this is deleted quickly before members get to see it and having moderators around the world in different time zones helps to keep the lid on the problem, athough we will never stop it completely.

If we miss one please do report it or any post for that matter which you feel is unacceptable by using the red and white triangle icon under everyones name and picture:

Trollers, for torture, spam and outright garble try ALT.COM. I am sure you will be welcomed.

Even if you are not serious about the pain it is a great example of an out-of-control albeit ADULT website.

Send them lots of thank you for having joined as the new CF moderators. Hope to hear more interesting about you guys.

Only if fired from a catamaran, whos' owner was trying to earn a living "om the sly" in a foreign port like Cuba and who was recently chased out of Florida by the Water Police and is on the lam for nonpayment of Federal Taxes.....

Chief, you forgot the political angle, try adding:

"by a US Senator who voted to print money to fuel the economy."
