• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    um, no? most schools do make an effort to make things easier for the disabled (because it's usually required under... anti-discrimination & accessibility laws). In fact, my primary school got ramps and stuff installed just because of one person who was born with a birth defect and had to use a...

    the only one I don't get is 'lame' because I imagine it referring to like, a horse that has a lame foot and I've never heard 'lame' used that way in reference to an actual person and I don't get how it's offensive I guess! because I always took 'lame' to mean 'uncool' but I'm okay with not...

    i'm pretty sure it is: mods will probably ask someone to not say 'retarded' and people usually comply so we don't have to infract people for it. if we haven't notice someone say it, report it or send a PM or something, we don't mind. anyway yep okay sounds good! I know I say things like 'that's...
