Due to the recent escalation of personal attacks by certain Members of the Forum, and with the hopes of bringing some Peace and Sanity here, we are instituting a New and exciting, Fun Filled Rule of Forum Behaviour.
It's a very simple one, easily understood, and reads as follows:
�_______ Any MEMBER that makes a PERSONAL ATTACK on any other MEMBER �_______ will have access rights removed in the following order of severity:
____________ 1st time offense will earn a short vacation of a 1 Week Ban.
____________ 2nd offense will garner an extended tour of a 4 Week Ban.
____________ 3rd offense will win the Grand Prize of a Permanent Ban.
If you feel you are being personally attacked or insulted, DO NOT defend yourself and attack back with a personal attack, as this too will be considered an offense.
Instead, please immediately notify the Moderator or Administrator that you feel you've been personally attacked. (please include: by Whom, and in which Thread and Forum.)
As has been stated before, the LMP Forum promotes FREEDOM OF SPEECH. All of your views and opinions are welcome and encouraged, whether for or against the war in Iraq, for or against gay marriage, for or against any and all issues facing your wonderfully tumultuous and engaging world today.
In short, feel free to disagree, but do not engage in personal attacks and insults unless you are prepared to bear the brunt of our New and Exciting Fun Filled Rule of Forum Behaviour.
ps. Should you ever be tempted to defend or attack, you might want to remember something you all heard in grade school, but might have forgotten:
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
This Forum, great as it is, is nothing but words. Rest assured, no member will come out of your computer screen and punch you in the face !!!!!
(..... although, I'll admit.... I'm working on being able to... hahahaha)
