Declaration of the Board's Philosophy and What That Entails

This post is to address the current, potential, and speculated issues on the board. More may be posted at any point in the future as the need arises.

This board works under two main principles:
1. Everyone is Welcome
2. Appreciation

Specifically, this board operates in the region where those two principles overlap. Everyone who appreciates the show is welcome.

Take a look around the board and note the thread titles and opening posts. You'll see one word pop up again and again. Appreciation. This entire board was campaigned for and voted into existence by fans that wanted to appreciate and honor the television show The Big Bang Theory. If you are not a fan of the show, you are at the wrong board.

'Appreciation' is the underlying factor that keeps this board running smoothly. We strive to keep the atmosphere positive, upbeat, and cheerful. This should be a fun and enjoyable place for fans to come together and celebrate their show. Obviously not every comment will be complimentary, but any negative discussions that arise should be kept courteous, respectful and exactly that, discussions. Please do not come into a thread, post a long string of complaints and then get offended when several people reply back with comments that disagree with yours. For every person who does not like something, there is at least one other person who does like it. Understand and accept this.

If you ever feel uncomfortable because of the moderators, other posters, or just the general attitude of a thread, do not hesitate to PM Ashu or me. There are two mods on this board for a reason. If you do not feel comfortable talking to one, you can message the other. If you don't feel comfortable talking to either of us, you may message someone in moderator management (links can be found at the end of the FanForum Rules and Guidelines). Ashu and I will do our best to resolve the issue(s). We want this to be a safe place for everyone to post.

We understand this appreciation attitude begins with the moderators, and Ashu and I will strive to set the example. But each of you hold the power to be a leader too. If you see a thread spinning off into a negative rant, feel free to step in and start a new discussion topic. This is especially relevant to the shipper threads. Too much complaining about the writers and not enough ship discussion? Jump in and ask for everyone's favorite scenes or hypothetical date scenarios. You may get ignored. I'm sorry but that does happen. But at least the post is out there for others to see, and maybe it will inspire some of the quieter members or lurkers to post something. The mods will make sure that no question posts go unanswered even if no other members respond.

Friendshippers are more than welcome to post in a shipper thread, but please understand and respect that it is a shipper thread first. They can contribute to discussions on the pairing's dynamic or scenes but should remember that the other fans will take it further romantically. In cases where a friendshipper disagrees with a shipper over a romantic topic, the moderators recommend that the friendshipper simply let the issue go. This recommendation is not meant to limit anyone's right to post. It is not a requirement. This recommendation is meant to uphold and promote the 'appreciation' attitude that we'd like to see in all of the board's members.

Shippers are allowed to discuss other pairings in the shipper threads, but they must do so in a way that is comparing/contrasting with the on-topic pairing. Please keep such comments along the line of ''I think Person A has better banter with Person B than Person C does and that's why I prefer to ship A/B together'. Please refrain from making comments like 'A and B together are boring' or 'A is so annoying. B and C are way better together'. If you want to discuss another pairing in a shipper thread, you should have a concrete reason for doing so.

If you read this, please respond with a comment (a simple 'read' or 'noted' will do). Other comments, concerns, or questions can also be left below. If you don't want to comment publicly, send a PM. Ashu and I will respond as soon as we can. I will be around for the next several hours tonight to respond to messages.

Update by WeBuiltThePyramids, 10/25/11 - Please refrain from any smilies and/or comments on speculation that imply future plots or character pairings. Spoilers are available in the spoiler thread and any such hinting to what is coming on this particular board is not allowed.

Thank you for your time! You can now return to your previously scheduled fan activities

Feel free to post new threads here so a mod can update the OP. Thanks!

I don't know if it's important to let you know, but this thread was not closed http://www.fanforum.com/f312/jim-she...6/index21.html

And, by the way, should the OP be updated? I ask because in the Friends board they update the OP of this thread when they start a new thread.

Thanks! It's closed now.

As for an update, technically every time someone opens a thread they are supposed to link it here. I'm going to try to update it during my break, and hopefully Roxanne will be able to help, too, and we'll have it fully updated soon.

Oh, hi! And since and since I'm new here...
Name:Anjelica
Birthday:May 25th
Locationhilippines (Or I could've just said "somewhere in Asia")
How did you hear about us? Oh, I was searching for sheldon/amy and it brought me here to this forum!
Favorite episode? Oh, I have 2 favorite episodes right now... The Flaming Spittoon Acquisition and The Agreement Dissection
Favorite character? Sheldon Cooper, of course.
Favorite shipper group? SHAMY )
Other favorite shows: Oh, I haven't pretty much got really addicted to tv shows but I got hooked with Glee on their 2nd season, and House, and a bit of Modern Family would do nicely.
Anything else: I just hope I'd feel welcome here and hopefully I won't encounter ship-bashing here (with I think has a very low probability), unlike the local forum we had.

Oh yes, I didn't see that comment of yours Rhiana. Gina's right, ship bashing is not allowed, so while there may be ship related discussion (in the positives and/or negatives respect) full out ship war does not happen here.

Hello, I'm ursayollia. I'm originally from the HIMYM board, and I've been a newly converted follower. My only gripe with the show is the seizure-inducing intro.
