So here's the deal. Too many times have me or scabs had to lock or delete a thread. Too many times have we had to delete or edit users post. It's honestly getting ridiculous.
Every discussion that takes place %99 ends in someone insulting each other or someone relative. It always gets ugly and even childish at times to be honest. And for over what? A comic book movie? Films that have overpaid actors dressed up in silly outfits?
Now I'm not saying that you can't make any criticism of the movies or shows. I'm not saying that you have to like the film's or whatever, but I want you guys to do it in a more mature manner.
So here's what I would like to see from you all:
No more toxic fan behavior. Criticism towards a franchise is not a personal attack on you. If you feel that way then you should seek help.
No Racism, Homophobia and sexism allowed.
No more dragging people relatives, especially DEAD ones. The fact I have to say this is pretty depressing.
No more childish insults. If you can't debate or hold a discussion like an adult, then don't bother.
Other than that, there won't be a whole lot of restrictions. It is a discussion forum. Not a fan forum.
Any complaints? Feel free to PM me.
-
Your friendly neighborhood Mod,
Hauntedknight

Feel free to PM me. - Your friendly neighborhood Mod, Hauntedknight I was getting a little squirrelly, so had to step back a bit. It's so easy to get into trying to win an argument with people who won't budge. This makes you more entrenched in your opinions over basically nothing real. Trying to get them to move a little closer to your opinion. If you could get them to move a little bit it would be a Win. |

Personally, I don't "enjoy" arguing with people, so I generally try to avoid it.
It can be ( very ) difficult to do sometimes, but the best option is usually to just walk away.

I never try to get the last word and instead always make a point to be the bigger person in the end. Good post, Hauntedknight87. As someone whose dead relative was not only mocked viciously in the last 24 hours but alleged to be still alive in a stunningly pathetic and desperate attempt to "zing" me, I certainly wouldn't mind if the barest semblance of fucking decency were upheld around here. |

Feel free to PM me. - Your friendly neighborhood Mod, Hauntedknight Well done. Moderator, can you share with us the penalty for violating these clearly stated rules? What will be the result of multiple, flagrant infractions? Will I be officially warned? Will I be banned after multiple warnings? If I were to say, call someone a cupcake, would that draw a demerit? Or would that be considered light banter among friends? And, if I may make a suggestion, perhaps these rules should occupy a permanent place at the top of the board where all may easily reference them should memories begin to fade. |

Or, is the amount of violations that result in a warning or a ban an arbitrary figure? How many warnings does it take to be banned? A transparent system that is unambiguous may help to keep everyone honest. |

That’s wonderful news, Moderator. I look forward to understanding the exact penalties that a violation of the rules will draw. Until then, I certainly plan to stay out of trouble and advise others to do the same. |
