I've been on this list a number of years now and (of course) others have been on longer than me. I don't think anyone will disagree that AVON LUST has been and still is a major part of the B7 fandom and isn't likely to go away. To the best of my knowledge it has always been an acceptable topic of discussion on lysator.
What one person considers poor taste, another doesn't. But unless the comments are sexually explicit or definitely belong on FC, it's my opinion no one has the right to question whether it should be allowed. Just ignore it. Hopefully, we'll all remember to change subject headers suitably in the future.
I stayed out of the Deliverance debate in the beginning because...I know me. I so totally disagreed with some comments and was so offended by other comments that I started wondering by what right they were posting this stuff.
Then I realized, they had every right to post their opinion without me telling them I was offended or that it shouldn't be allowed.
Courtney Off to ponder an interesting idea Peter gave me about Tarriel cells.
