Well, if you have been on KGS every day for the last 5 years, I think it might be good for you to get away from it for a while. There is more to life than spending time on Go servers.
You can always come back to it later if you feel the need.

For what it's worth, I enjoyed the video, but considering one of the character's names, I don't think you can seriously and righteously make the statement that all swearing was *****ed out.

I agree with Tom about the admins on KGS. Maybe someone should select them with a little more care.

I believe "ShiTing" is an actual name.

Good for you. KGS doesn't attract the better go players.

For those who are shocked by the name ShiTing in the video, even if you don't speak Chinese, the capitalization should be a big hint (as well as how the "actors" pronounce it). It can be spelled in at least two ways (and probably more that I am not aware of):
诗婷 SHI1 TING2
仕婷 SHI4 TING2
I saw the video, it's cute. Although I wouldn't show it to my family because they're not used to see grown up boys playing cute videos, nothing shocked me.
Lack of culture shouldn't be a reason for banning someone.

Gosensations hasn't been very sensational lately. No new stories since July 12th.

KGS's probably the server that improve the slowest out of the big Go servers (IGS, Tygem etc.). I first came there about 7 years ago and I can say that not much has changed. If anything the number of high-dans has decreased.
I'm really sad about gosensations being inactive, cause that's like the only place that has interesting Go news on the Internet (that I know about).
