I realize that H.com is meant to be a respectable frum family environment and wants to provide good clean fun for all, but I have also noticed that the premature closing of certain threads (of borderline acceptability) has led to an immediate dramatic acute decrease of the overall participation of H.com and has greatly diminished the quantity and quality of posts on other KOSHER threads.

I think a provision needs to be made for a "loss leader" so to speak, which may by itself cause a loss in net profit, but have an overall positive effect which more than compensates for such losses......

Thank you for your time...........

I wonder why you're telling me that.

At the mall, and then cooking dinner.
