I have something to say here, but lack the right words. I had typed out a rather large post, and just deleted it. The lines just become to blurry past a certain point in defining a kilt and a kilted website, and I honestly do not want to trample on anybody's toes for once. Nor do I wish to raise any eyebrows. (Well, maybe just a little) I do have something to say however... And wish I had the right words to say it.
I don't know where the line is drawn for a "kilt" here. I know that threads about sarongs and macabi skirts tend to be locked down or deleted rather quickly. Those are obviously over the line. The mods are right in canning those. Yet threads about borderline kilts, like the ever so popular Tripp kilt, if that is not a kilt, then why do those threads even exist? Had it fallen outside the borders of what a kilt is, and I am NOT going to say which side of the border it lands on, but if it did somehow fall outside, wouldn't or shouldn't the mods delete those threads in keeping with the rules and the mission statement of this site?
Because those threads exist, and because I know that our mods are not boneheads, I feel my self leaning in the direction that these borderline kilts, like the Tripp kilt, are indeed kilts.
Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Right?
I still wish I could say what was actually on my mind. But I can't think of the right way to say it with out it coming out wrong or sounding, well, bad. And I don't want to introduce Mr Pointy Stick to Mr Hornet's Nest.
