**Note: These are the current rules of the board but they are ALL open to discussion and possible amendments/repealments may take place through a period of debate followed by a simple majority vote.**

1. Absolutely zero tolerance on spamming and
flooding. Users can be banned for life immediately
for a single infraction. Flooding is defined as FOUR posts or more with the same or similar content within a period of TEN minutes or less or FOUR shouts or more with the same or similar content within a period of SEVEN minutes.
2. No overt hate speech/links to overt hate speech is
allowed. Users can be banned for life
immediately for a single infraction.
3. Flaming (i.e. insulting attacks on other members) is
allowed ONLY in the FLAME WARS section.
It will not be tolerated anywhere else on the board
and any infractions can lead to a lifetime ban.
5. Any Member who creates a 'sockpuppet' account (i.e. a fake account) will be suspended for a period of no less than 90 days.
6. Any Member caught impersonating another member in the shoutbox will be suspended for at LEAST one week. Further infractions of this kind may lead to a lifetime ban.
7. Rules 1 and 2 also apply to the Shoutbox.
8. Any Member who does not log in for a period of two months will be immediately terminated.
9. Supreme Adjudicators will be elected to a term not exceeding ONE calendar year (365 days).
10. All suspensions may be appealed. An appeal must be made within 24 hours of notice of a suspension and any submissions must be posted in the Penalty Box within 48 hours of the notice. If 24 hours passes without an appeal, the Member will begin serving his/her suspension. All Members of CB may be involved in the appeal process. The Supreme Adjudicator will render a final decision which may include: a) upholding the original suspension; b) amending the suspension period (either higher or lower); nullifying the suspension.
12. Any Member may ask for a vote to impeach the Supreme Adjudicator. In 30 days, a vote will be held to determine whether or not the Supreme Adjudicator should stay in his/her role. During the intermediary period, a thread will be created in Board Announcements, wherein the members of CB may debate the motion to impeach. If the vote is unanimous, the Supreme Adjudicator will be removed immediately and the Member who launched the impeachment motion will be installed as the Interim Supreme Adjudicator. Members including the deposed Supreme Adjudicator will have 14 days to declare their candidacy for Supreme Adjudicator in Board Announcements. 30 days after the deadline for announcement of candidacy, an election will be held. If only one member declares his/her candidacy, he/she will automatically become Supreme Adjudicator at the expiration of 30 days. If no member declares his/her candidacy, the Interim Supreme Adjudicator will assume the position of Supreme Adjudicator at the expiration of 30 days after the deadline for candidacy. He/she will be Supreme Adjudicator for a term of one year.
If the motion to impeach fails, the Member who launched the motion will be suspended for a period of 120 days for causing undue instability to the Board and for damaging the reputation of the Supreme Adjudicator.
Any Member who invokes Rule 12 may withdraw his/her invocation at any time before the day of the scheduled impeachment vote at no penalty.
16. No member may change his/her Member Name more than ONE time per year up to a maximum of THREE name changes. Name changes will be approved or denied by the discretion of the Supreme Adjudicator or Interim Supreme Adjudicator if applicable.
17. No member or guest of Chatterb0x may post any altered picture, video or audio recording of any other mmber or guest of Chatterb0x without that Member or Guest's expressed written permission. Furthermore, no member or guest of Chatterb0x may post any altered picture, video, or audio recording of any mmber or gest's family members, friends, acquaintances, or colleagues without the expressed written permission of that member or guest. Any violation will lead to an automatic 100 day suspension from Chatterb0x. A subsequent violation will result in a 1,000 day suspension from Chatterb0x. A third violation will result in a 10,000 day suspension from Chatterb0x. A fourth violation will result in a 25,000 day suspension from Chatterb0x.
18. Under exceptional times of threats (internal and/or external), and backed by a simple majority vote of Members, the Supreme Adjudicator may declare martial law whereby all rules will be immediately suspended. The Supreme Adjudicator will have then been granted full authority for a period of up to 30 days to carry out whatever action(s) he/she deems necessary to protect and preserve the wellbeing of Chatterb0x and its Members.

I read Cherie Currie's Neon Angel the last December, and I'm re-reading it now.

That looks pretty good! I remember when the film came out I was going to see it but didn't get round to it. Do you re-read books a lot? I do, I have a few books that I read at some point every year without fail.

Hi PJ. I like The Count of Monte Cristo. I have an expensive hardback copy of that book. PJ you should search for the 'Continuum Concept' online.

I don't think I'd enjoy that much. I prefer books that help me escape from the world, not dwell on how crap it is,lol. I'm waiting for the next book in the series I was reading to arrive and can't decide what to read until it gets here. It could get here tomorrow though so maybe I'll just catch up on "House" instead. Hugh Laurie is amazing.

“beware the average man the average woman
beware their love, their love is average
seeks average

but there is genius in their hatred
there is enough genius in their hatred to kill you
to kill anybody

not wanting solitude
not understanding solitude
they will attempt to destroy anything
that differs from their own

not being able to create art
they will not understand art
they will consider their failure as creators
only as a failure of the world”
― Charles Bukowski

That looks pretty good! I remember when the film came out I was going to see it but didn't get round to it. Do you re-read books a lot? I do, I have a few books that I read at some point every year without fail.

The film is a good one, it has some fiction mixed up within the documental, and would make a pleasant time for the all the fans of Joan and Cherie, but it has some few screenplay flaws that the older fans of Lita and Jackie won't appreciate much. And for everyone who doesn't know about the Runaways, this film is the best way to get started with learning their work and their history.

I decided to order the book because I wanted to sort out some things about the story on that film.

I do not usually re-read books, but that book mentions several sorts of true-life people and events that I didn't know about, and after having finished reading that the first time, I decided I needed to google for a lot of things on the internet --so I could know more exactly whom and what Cherie was talking about (musicians, actors, places, events). After I researched for all those names of people and places, I re-read the book --now linking what she tells in the book to what I learned from online research. It was pleasant to me, anyway, to read that book twice and I'm certainly going to read that book for a third time soon.

I liked that book so much that I wished it was longer.
