[ferret]

This forum is for serious discussions about various political, moral, religious, you name it, topics. If you do not stay on topic, your posts will be deleted. If you personally attack anyone who disagrees with you, your posts will be deleted. Play fair, play nice, or don't play at all.

General rules:

ABSOLUTELY NO PERSONAL ATTACKS!No pornography or images of any sort.No racial, religious or sexual remarks that could be taken as demeaning.Excessive profanity will be punished.Please stay on topic and keep posts well written in clear English. No excessive use of acronyms.

Reiterating a certain point: I don't care for postwhoring. Most of you know this. But I will absolutely not tolerate it in this forum section. I will delete posts that aren't on topic. But I already said that above. I just felt like re-issuing a warning :)

Otherwise, the forums doing great, thanks for the long thoughtful posts!

Some recent topics have not quite been in line with the spirit of this forum. Please make an effort to correct this. I do not consider "Which team will win the game?" to be a serious debate of any real importance.

The required ever-so-often bump of this post seems necessary. Stop post whoring in the Debate forum or I'll remove your ability to post there. Stay on topic.

I've noticed a considerable amount of personal attacks of late that have resulted in the closing of no less than two threads.

I have three words about it... Stop It Now.

Or else...

I'm adding a new rule.

Descriptiveness and definition of any topics subject line are a must. An acceptable topic name is any that a participant has some semblance of what the topic is about before looking at the topic itself. Topics that do not comply with this rule will be given a descriptive subject. (And we all know how generic my topic lines are)

JAC and Stormfury have been banned from this forum.

Oh my god where is my gun forum?

It's gone. If you want to talk about weapons, guns or otherwise, in a non-debate manner such as "Hey, I'm looking to purchase.", then go here:

http://forums.gamehavoc.com/forumdisplay.php?f=148

It would be highly suggested that you avoid debates in that forum, as I'll quickly remove your ability to use it. If you want to argue about states allowing OC/CC or not, post here.

So JAC understands, his ban from April 2006, over a year and a half ago, is not in force any more.
