| Board Rules and Thread Guide - UPDATED MARCH 31st, 2009 - Please read and respond   Paper Sections:
 General FF Rules Expanded Rules for News & Politics News & Politics Board Rules 1) Personal attacks will not be tolerated. It's against  and board rules and will result in a warning at least. You can attack ideas without attacking people; criticize a post without extending your criticism to the poster her/himself.2) Don't make stereotypical generalizations about any group; that will also result in a warning or a ban. 3) Always show respect towards your fellow posters as well as their opinions and beliefs. You have good reasons for holding your opinions; so do other people. Basically, treat others as you want to be treated. 4) If you have a problem with another poster, or you're getting the feeling that another poster is personally hostile to you, please keep it private. PM the other poster to work things out. If you think that won't do it, PM one of the mods. If, once you've taken it to the mods, you find that the problem hasn't been adequately resolved, PM a Mod Manager. Long story short, never publicly post personal grievances - if you're concerned about something, PM the poster, a mod, or a Mod Manager. 5) Always post the source whenever you post a news article (link to the page you found the news on). The same goes for any claims about statistics or facts/figures - post a link or let the other posters know where you found the information so they can check it out for themselves. Saying "blueberries cure scaly feet" (for example!) should always be followed by a link or a citation, out of courtesy to your fellow posters and, of course, in order to give credit to the source or author. 6) **Updated** We now have this spanking new Thread Guide. So, in order to help keeping things tidy and in order to make everyone's life easier, it would be EXTREMELY appreciated that you post the url to any new thread you start (be it on a brand new topic or as a continuation of an old thread) on this thread. Thank you muchly. Quote:
