Rules: version 2

[Sir_Lancelot]

By golly, you're absolutely right! He's a member here, so we must stop praising him, or he might actually start feeling good about himself...

And we certainly can't have that, can we?

Valka D'Ur, I don't know who you are but I do like you already!
(According to Birdjaguar's clarification of the rules in post #53, I think I'm allowed to say this. )

But in any case, positive comments should always be allowed. Negative comments... not so much.

Agreed. Of course.

I dont think so. Because it's a generic one like "darn" and they use it in cartoons I think. I used to think it meant "Im angry"

Same here. My English vocabulary isn't that great, so I might want to use such random symbols as a substitute for a proper word that I can't think of, and it would just mean anger and not swearing. But it's not often that happens, it's very rare.

I suggest the following rules be added:

1. All forms of social and economic prejudice and discrimination be considered banable offenses. This includes but is not limited to sexism, class-ism/Social Darwinism, homophobia, transphobia and racism.

2. Justifying religious hierarchy, Preaching to or converting other members should not tolerated and religious ideas be expressed only in religious discussion thread or a forum created for religious discussion.

3. Anti-choice posts be banned. The only acceptable position on abortion on the forum is support for unrestricted, widespread, and totally free access to abortion at every stage of pregnancy throughout the entire world. The decision of whether to abort should be made only by each individual pregnant woman, and every woman has a right to choose. Any member who disagrees with this position and calls for any kind of barrier to access or suggests that any other party should have any degree of control should be banned on the grounds that opposition to abortion is a form of sexism and discrimination.

Yeah, kill the nine month old fetus and ban everyone who campaigns against it? I think you'd be the only member left here

so much for the idea of free thought

 

[GhostWriter16]

Racism is already banned, and I'd assume Social Darwinism (Not totally sure), by extention, and there's a limit to how "Homophobic" you can be, but Karalysia's rules are pretty much "Ban everyone who isn't just like me."

 

[Abaddon]

It was obviously a joke post. Why are you dissecting it like it would be taken seriously?!

 

[Karalysia]

No those are the rules from a certain forum. They are good rules. The discussion in that forum is of good quality.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Lack of humor is what I'd say.

Link to the forum?

Also, it doesn't leave any room for "Discussion."

 

[Abaddon]

There are many other subjects which you can discuss.

@Karalysia- And that site is freaking stupid.

 

[Camikaze]

Out of curiosity, is anything still going on with this, or has the cause been given up?

 

[Turner]

It's kinda stalled out, but we're still pursuing it. It's not a matter of if it will happen, but when.

 

[useless]

doesn't seem to have worked, sorry

 

[azzaman333]

doesn't seem to have worked, sorry

How can it work if it isnt introduced?

 

[Thoughtful Thug]

How about we have less moderating, so that we can have less infractions?

Especially some moderators that have a habit of waking up at the wrong side of the bed in morning.

 

[Thoughtful Thug]

I want to put in my 2 cent.

You see I don't care about infractions most of the time.

My problem is that when you have a guy that you once never got along with many years ago, but never did reach to any sensible reconciliation with him before he become a moderator, and now he is your moderator.

It is a like a crazy monkey with a power-trip of revenge on your back constantly.

 

[Birdjaguar]

If you have a problem with a mod, pm an admin or supermod. It is best not to discuss it in public.
