Mind telling us how to visit this site?

One word: Buckhead
If you enroll using a different throw-away email address
each time, and avoid a specific style, and don't give
away personal info, they can't really tell much.

So find a HS site that really is for HS'ers.
Yes. They track your every move through stuned beebers implanted on your hard drive.
Not per se, but it is a very very very bad idea.
I just wanted to share that I was banned from this site for simply having conservative views. I used this site for years (like 8yrs) to buy and sell used homeschool books. This past summer I stumbled upon the Homeschool Issues Board and felt like the board needed some balance. I guess they didn't appreciate my "balance". You are not allowed to discuss same sex marriage, abortion, meat, or guns. The conservatives I know that have been banned all stayed away from the "forbidden" topics and still were banned. This wouldn't be a big deal if we all had not used this board for business purposes. I am convinced the liberals who disagreed with our views are also the ones responsible for banning visitor's ISPs.

It only gets bad if you go too far. Then they send Rover for you . . . |
FYI.
Dunno. I just found a bunch of similar threads to a GGG thread here on FR; the hosting forums A) obviously don't have a do-no-excerpt list, B) were started by exiles from FR, and C) judging from the "about this forum" pages, no place I'd want to hang around. Just found out all Republicans are Marxists, all Jews are Nazis, etc. :')
Yeah, okay, this is an old thread...
