Oh, this goes beyond merely looking at a board. Its very existence is the cause for this subversion from GAFF spirit, with the subversives using the GAFF name to represent themselves. That's a big no-no in my book. Look at the credibility GAFF has these days when compared to the original days. I think my self-appointed counter-intelligence/security mission effectively provided me with a list of such subversives.

I had hoped that this free-speech movement, and the shift of GAFF authority from the elite to the common public, would mean better things for GAFF. I was optimistic about using GAFF to help badfic authors rather than watch them peruse the site, given the new sentiment of leaving reviews and GAFFed messages for authors. So far, I've seen nothing but distortion and sullying of the GAFF name.

If you want to discuss things, great. If you want to flame authors, okay. But don't do this in GAFF's name.
