A quick look at B3ta will show that no subject is forbidden when it comes to making jokes, but be prepared for misunderstandings if you are dealing with a controversial subject. It's probably best to get to know your audience before you make jokes about anything particularly sensitive.
It's best not to use your real names on any messageboard, and posting other people's real names when they'd rather they weren't known is a big no-no, and the same applies to any kind of private details.
Please go easy on the misogynistic "I would" type posts whenever a picture of an attractive lady is posted on the board. Not only can it get a bit tiresome, but it can be intimidating and unwelcoming for a lot of lady boarders. Besides, even if you would, she probably wouldn't.
Also, remember there is a difference between poor taste and being hateful. Please don't use b3ta as an outlet for racism, or your posts will be deleted and your account banned.

There's a hell of a difference between what's written and what's actually enforced. There's a tacit understanding that we'll all get the piss ripped out of us for whatever sensitive personal issues we're daft enough to advertise. It's not like everyone who jokes about AA's Mum gets stepped.

In the same way that Be Here Now was a classic.
