 | June 20th, 2011 at 09:44pm Hey guys, there has been quite a few people wondering if this section is going to be taken seriously and guess what? It is!!!
So from now on we will be following the old rules for this section that I will list below. These rules are for every single person on this site, not just certain people. This is really the only section that I think we all agree needs some rules so our discussions stay on topic.
NeoSteph:The Specific section is here for responsible, important discussions and debates, everyones thoughts and opinions will be tolerated, you have every right to disagree. If you want to spout out racial slurs fair enough just don't expect to get a warm reception.
Rule 1: All spam will be deleted. There are forums avaliable for idle chat and to talk about the band so use them.
Rule 2: When posting a new topic you must first check to make sure it's not a duplicate and you MUST post your own opinion so that a debate may begin.
Rule 3:This is also not a section dedicated to the political minds of Green Day, if you wish to discuss that you go to the Green Day section.
Rule 4:Be careful with what you use as evidence. Feel free to use whatever person or piece of literature you want but if found faulty you will be asked to back up your findings with a more logical source.
Rule 5:You are open to critisism at all times, if someone feels the need to destroy your argument they may do so. However it cannot get personal, attack the argument not the person.
Rule 6: NO BLANK QUOTES, it's considered spam, if you agree with someone, then add to the discussion don't just repeat.
Rule 7: Please try to add something to the discussion, One lined sentences are merely statements of the obvious and do not help a debate progress.
We do not force the rule that chat speak is not allowed but we ask you to try and not use it.
Locking and Deleting
With most threads a Mods word is final, however if you think your thread has been unfairly removed you contact the mod who locked it, if they cannot give a straight forward reason for removing it, contact me or antoher mod who can then judge for her/himself.
What to do when posting
Steph 1: Check it's not a duplicate
Steph 2: Pick a title that is not long winded and make sense to the discussion
steph 3: Include a source relevant to the discussion
steph 4: Write a statement that sums up the topic.
steph 5: Write your opinion on the subject, include relevant quotes or opinions from experts.
steph 6: preview to make sure it makes sense then submit.
If you guys have any questions or problems just PM Fizz, Mareh or myself.
HAVE FUN YINZ! |
