14. I'd be interested to know what makes people feel that way. Is the culture significantly different?
Are different people dominating the discussion? Or is it more a general sense of pervasive fear of limits, of saying the wrong thing? Do you think the rules on DU3 may be unfairly applied to posters who are not popular, i.e. the "cool kids" get a pass to say whatever they want so long as it is within the broader DU2 rules?
