Hi everyone,
What do you think about setting down a few basic rules to which every member of the forum should be bound?

whos gonna judge whats cussing?keeper said:Bjarne, I don't think that implied rules are effective. "No excessive cursing", for example: I'd rather say "No cursing". Who's to judge when/what is excessive?
In my opinion, people get to this forum to seek union and not division. To feel comfortable, not to be "flamed" or insulted because of their opinions/choices. The life of someone which feels lonely may be full of negative days, so in my opinion this place should be safe and provided with some basic rules in order to guarantee members and guests the due respect.
c now if there was all these rules u want u wouldnt even be able to type so sarcastic & vile 2 me to like this LoL geeze dont be so tense whats the big deal we already have rules y add morekeeper said:Let's start cursing, etc. Do you think that vulgarities, flaming, etc. will relieve you from stress? Wonderful! I wonder why I have never thought about that.
Do you believe people are lonely because of rules? Ok, so let's break every rules, we'll never be lonely again.
better the wild west than nazi germany dudekeeper said:So, New Birth, welcome to the Wild West.
NewBirth said:the point beeeeeeeeeing that we already have rules about cussing & we already have rules about conduct so y add more rules?
lets just keep our happy medium
i didnt say anything about letting peeps cuss & anytime anybody does its dealt with. i could never know what on earth more u want. really i dont c where its necessary 2 b so insulting in ur response either but because i 2 believe in free speech i wouldnt say u didnt have a right 2 say the things ur saying.keeper said:This reply is just because I believe in democracy and freedom of speech.
A place where vile, sarcastic, offensive, whatever, language is allowed and encouraged is a place which hardly will make feel less lonely who feels lonely.
Moreover, if an admin/mod isn't able to guarantee the effectiveness of basic rules, he/she is completely useless and we all should start to ask what's his/her role.
Someone thinks that in this world rules belong to 1933-45 Germany and freedom belongs to Wild West. This belief is in my opinion childish and trivial and doesn't deserve any further comment.
Someone also thinks that this forum is keeping its "happy medium". I'm used to consider only facts and not daydreams, and the facts don't seem to reflect a (unreal) "happy medium".
