Read The Rules

Just a few revisions/updates to the infamous Rules to address the whole issue of banning members, etc.

And I'll say it now (because you know if I don't, some asshat will - if anyone creates a "Why was so-and-so banned?" thread willfully to mock the rules, etc. I will ban them - no ifs, ands or buts about it. It's that kind of willful disregard for the rules that have kept this place a somewhat orderly and pleasant place to be for so long in jeopardy.

Feel free to discuss the updates here, ask questions, etc.

*inserts joke about reading the rules*

this is a trick right? wheres the hidden camera?

No tricks - I just want everyone to understand that the rules are there for everyone's betterment - no matter how butthurt some are over some bannings.

I have read the rules, again. Small suggestions:

The point about Bush under 'Administrator Powers' might be outdated.

Under 'IP Addresses/Email Addresses,' change 'non-existant' to 'nonexistent.'

Under 'Suggestions,' #5 is redundant and all the items are bullet-pointed. Perhaps number them to clarify its reference to "#1 and #4.'

Good catches, thank you - will be updating them in a moment.

We know who you are.

that was my favorite part

so to summarise:

no what happened to soandso threads. ok cool.

what about the Banned Member Catch up thread. why was that deleted?

the rules should have hotlinks to all of the different sub-sections rather than just all sphewed out on the page.

we have rules?

why didn't anyone mention this

::reads the rules::

I'll probably be banned by next year.

I'm going to put down $5 on myself for the 2009 pool.

It was fun and educating reading the rules, good job Joyrex!

the rules are way better with unicorns(!)

Asking why someone was banned = mocking the rules? Are you high?

As long as people are good with their NSFW tags I'm fine. I frequent this site from my office and I don't want to get fired for nasty stuff.

Let your boss know you're browsing the web and goofing off while working anyway. See if it makes a difference to him if it has "work safe" material or not.

Trust me it does make a difference. I'm allowed to relax by the computer while I can, the rest of the time I'm running around fixing things.

i found the secret message in the rules! if you take the first letter in every word and put them together you'll find it. good luck
