Boomers Rock Group Ground Rules

If you submit a spam lens, I will report it. If you submit a lens containing adult content, and have not marked it so, I will report it.

Shocking is the number of lenses submitted for membership that have nothing to do with Baby Boomers. Add spam lenses, and Giddy could spend half her Squidooin' time just hittin' that little ole' REJECT button.

It hurts her swellin' heart when she has to do that to a perfectly good lens about, say, peas for livestock, or livestock for peas, for that matter. After all, the lensmaster put a lot of time and effort into developin' that lens. Then they went to all the trouble of finding Boomers Rock! HQ and hitting the "Join" button, only to get that nasty "REJECT" notice in their inbox.

Now, if there's a "contact me" button on the lens, Giddy writes a note to the lensmaster explainin' how much she enjoyed learnin' why peas are good for livestock and we should all feed our livestock peas, and she's so sorry, but it simply has nothin' at all to do with Baby Boomers, and for that reason she had to take the only recourse available to her and hit the "Reject" button.

Oh, sure, lots of Baby Boomers like peas and eat them regularly. And surely there are plenty of non-vegan, non-vegetarian, non-raw food Boomers who like livestock and eat them regularly. Perhaps there are vegan-veggie-raw fooders who just love livestock and commune regularly with them.

Sadly, eating/communing/liking, in and of itself, can appeal to almost anyone, not just to Boomers, you see.

Then, of course, lots and lots of submissions have no "Contact me" button, so Giddy never gets to soften the rejection blow with a warm, fuzzy note to the lensmaster. Boy, is that frustratin'.

Does anybody else feel frustrated when they don't find that button? Maybe you want to tell the lensmaster how deeply and strongly you feel about peas, or livestock, and how happy you are to find a kindred soul at last. Sometimes ya just wanna talk. Do you feel that?

Giddy also gets plenty of submissions with a provocative intro, and she wants more! Eagerly scrolling the page, she finds ... nothin' at all! The lensmaster filled out the intro and decided to start joinin' groups. Sigh. You understand Giddy's angst, don't you fellow and sister Squidizens?

Just in case you've read this far, Giddy must admit she has never seen a lens on peas for livestock, or livestock for peas, and if somewhere there is one, please do not submit it for membership in Boomers Rock!
