Section Rules - Read Before Posting

**4me2** · 2nd September 2004

I appeal for common sense in this section and look forward to some good heated discussions in here.

Guidelines are :

1: No racist shit

2: No name calling or personal abuse of other members or staff.

3: DO NOT post jokes into any thread that does not have a Humorous Topic tag, if you want to 'make a funny' use another section on the forum.

4: Respect other peoples views even though you might not share them.

5: DO NOT post just a link it will be deleted and action taken against repeat offenders, use copy and paste to post the full article or do not post in this section.

6: RELIGIOUS DEBATES YES But keep it factual .

Clear text I don't expect to see anyone posting dozens of anti-muslim threads because they personally don't like that religion.

Although I don't wish to have a politically correct section I do expect respect for others and their religions.

People breaking these guidelines will be shut out of this section or banned depending on the severity of the offense and that includes staff.

Once again I appeal on your common sense and look forward to some juicy discussions.

ALWAYS post links to sources when posting news from other sites.

Section Tags

In an attempt to tidy up and remove the ever present destruction of serious news items with off topic banter, jokes and humour we have introduced user applicable tags which you are required to apply to your posts.

Please be aware that these tags are to be used and applied in the correct way and not abused on a serious topic giving a Humorous tag to a serious news article just to add a off topic comment or joke.

The following tags must be used and any comments not reflecting the subject of the tag will be deleted and further action may be taken including a ban from this section.
