I wonder if it includes an image of the Swastika or the White Supremacist frog.

Haven’t seen much change at all. A few of us have tried to comply but the majority have only sought ways around the rules.

Well, that’s done now...

Some of you may have noticed a new name at the top of this forum. Some of you know me, most of you don’t, and I hope you never do.

As of this post, things are different. What has happened before, and what has happened since Ike posted this thread and y’all ignored it, are not the way things in here are going to go. Some of you will not like the change. I don’t care. The guidelines will be enforced as I see fit to enforce them, in accordance with the owner’s wishes.

I will be making the rounds here to see what needs to be dealt with. You guys are really vanilla tame when it comes to the nuclear stuff, so I’m not too worried about that, but the insults and disrespect towards other members stops now.

Welcome to the Political Forum. Have fun everyone!

Wakeup...you and me have history... and of course I know you. I thought you were doing much bigger things than moderating a political forum. I hope you moderate and participate ;-)

I’m not here to participate. I’m here to moderate. Two very different things. Participation would lead to me possibly being biased for or against certain members, and that isn’t going to happen.

I am doing much bigger things, I was sent here because I am one of the few who can do the job needed here.

Godspeed.

So you're saying you still have personal biases? Let me ask since you used to make it quite clear in numerous public posts on Eccie...do you still dislike minority providers? You dont have to answer that and I wont search for those old posts I was just curious. We haven't talked in a while. How is Val your wife? And I've been dying to know was using the term Encounters vs. Reviews your brain child? I miss our epic battles you used to be a worthy opponent I hope you change your mind about participating. ;-)

Great

How about if someone baits a Trump supporter by constantly referring to our President in a hostile, disrespectful manner as "twitler" and the "orange sphincter"? Banned? What if someone makes offensive and disparaging comments about the military or another poster's military service? What if they belittle my hometown or my favorite sports team? What if they call me a racist? What if they call me a liar? Do I hit the rtm button at the slightest offense, real or perceived? Is that really what you want?

Or how about the comment that I enshrined in my signature - "your opinion is shit"? Extremely hostile and offensive, don't you think? I found it amusing but I can feign indignation now that I know by doing so I can get the offending poster banned.

And why is any of this necessary? I can't imagine it has anything to do with FOSTA since you admitted everyone already observes the nuclear rules. Why follow Mark Zuckerberg into censorship hell when this forum is doing fine under the status quo?

I can say what the fuck I want about that orange head skunk Donald Trump unless he personally hits the RTM button it's not a rule violation to shit on the president

Feel free to hit the RTM button on any violations you think you witness. In that case, I would issue a warning or points to the individual and move on. We don’t ban members for individual infractions apart from the nuclear rules. The point system will take care of banning them for me, if their behavior doesn’t correct itself before they reach the point limit.

What if someone posts "you deplorables all think alike"? Banned again? Originally Posted by lustylad

Deplorables is actually a political term now, much more than just the word itself. It has been embraced by book writers and people from both sides of the political spectrum. Feel free to use it in that context as much as you want. Again, no bans.

Baiting isn’t against the guidelines, and the president isn’t a member here. The guidelines do not apply to him. Rising to that bait in a disrespectful manner is against the guidelines though. My advice would be to keep yourselves under control, either when making posts, or responding to posts. Again, no ban.

The military isn’t a member here. They guidelines do not apply to them. If someone comments on a member’s military service in a disrespectful way, that’s against the guidelines.

Your hometown and your favorite baseball team are not members here. The guidelines do not apply to them.

What if they call me a racist? What if they call me a liar? Originally Posted by lustylad

That depends. Are you? Did they call you that in a way to cause offense? This applies to all manner of single word descriptions. That’s all at my discretion to issue infractions if I feel they are needed.

Do I hit the rtm button at the slightest offense, real or perceived? Originally Posted by lustylad

Again, feel free to hit the RTM button whenever you feel you have witnessed a violation. When you hit it, it’s only your perception...I will determine the reality of it by issuing infractions, or not.

Is that really what you want? Originally Posted by lustylad

What I want is irrelevant, what has been chosen for me is at hand.

Or how about the comment that I enshrined in my signature - "your opinion is shit"? Extremely hostile and offensive, don't you think? Originally Posted by lustylad

Not to me. As soon as you direct that comment to another member, you will have violated the guidelines.

I found it amusing but I can feign indignation now that I know by doing so I can get the offending poster banned. Originally Posted by lustylad

I’m happy that you have found something to take joy in. Cherish that.

And why is any of this necessary? Originally Posted by lustylad

It’s necessary because the board owners deem it so. That’s all you need to know.

Hey ChappedAss this is an anonymous board. Without outing me you don't know if I'm Donald Trump or Omarosa. Either one could crush your tiny balls into dust. Just stating facts.
