What is all this "code" business about?
One could just say "non-crossword".
However, raising subjects beyond the nature of this forum can and probably will lead to heated debates, and possibly intervention by people annoyed about it, causing more arguments. It's fine to just send a quick jokey message to a friend on here which should be acceptable.
I really do feel that if you wish to discuss politics, religion, sex, or the price of bananas, it should be done on Chatterbank.
Any of us can join each other over there and feel happy that we are not upsetting the serious crucibalists. Quite a few of us are there already. J
