Old Pearson explanation

This network and conference is designed as an experiment in erasing all the lines that appear in the other networks as to what you can and can't say.

Its purpose is to allow flights of fantasy and violent profane and pornographic humour to be developed by the users. It's purpose is to find out what happens in a group electronic environment when rules of conduct are eliminated. It seeks to attract expressive users with vivid imaginations who are tired of what they think is mundane in networking.

Which to a real extent is BANAL BULLSHITTING....

Its secondary purpose is to provide an electronic meeting place for some of the sickest motherfuckers who have ever used a keyboard.
