FWIS3

The rules around here are simple --
1. Try to play nice.
2. If rule number one is impossible, try to keep the fight clean.
3. If rule number 2 s impossible, take it to the Mosh Pit.
4. The Firefight is open, should you feel the need to really get nasty.

As a general rule, the members of this board treat each other like family. We fight, we argue, and sometimes, we don't speak to each other. We get over it. Life happens.

If you sign up and you get your feelings hurt, because you don't get our humor, don't get our references, or don't get us... What I suggest is that you sit back and lurk for awhile. We may rub off on you. Then again... we may not.

This board is not for everyone.

A new, very important, addition to the rules. We get a lot, A LOT, of spammers that sign up. It requires us to go through each and every sign up to approve or disapprove the membership before any posting is allowed.

Please pick a clever and creative screen name so that we know you're a human being. A bunch of gibberish letters or a "name" that is so foreign sounding as to be difficult for us to decipher coupled with an email address that is a bunch of nonsensical letters, will result in your being deleted without even checking.

If you want a really weird user name, indulge us - pick a name we can recognize. After you've posted a few times and decided you really want to hang out here, you can then PM an admin or a moderator and we will change your user name to whatever you like.

We thank you in advance for helping us expedite the new members.

Don't forget to go shopping for new hats.

Considering I had to have FZ explain that statement to me, I'm pretty sure I'm in no danger of needing new hats at the moment.

FYI:

NEW RULE (CAUSE I CAN): Other than repairing busted code, NO ONE other than the person who posted a message is to edit what someone posted. And if you do edit something you posted you should include a line to indicate that you have done so.

that makes sense.

Chances are it was one of the mods hitting EDIT instead of QUOTE.

You don't even know you did it.

An indicator that you're drinking too much or not enough.

ANOTHER NEW RULE: Acceptable subjects
Whatever, but you will be the one to support your statements if someone counters/asks. We're not here to hand hold.

Not sure why you're making new rules unless new people are getting ready to join. We haven't needed anything like moderation in quite some time. However, if you're thinking of getting new people on board, that might liven the place up.

You will have to back that up with facts. You don't expect us to just take your word for it do you?

That's right. We're not going to just sit here and hold your fat little hand.
