Ok so I have been through the forum and done some cleaning and I have decided to set up a rules and guidelines post.

This is the Politics forum. It's supposed to be about politics. Poltical situations from all countries are welcome.

If you want to disagree that is fine but let's do so in an organized and factual manner and refrain from name calling. I do realize that tempers can run hot and profanity can be used but I want to try and keep that at a minimum as well.

If you are posting information from another site please cite the source and provide a link.

If you don't have a legitimate political issue and are simply making up a topic to get a post on the board don't bother.

Try to be polite even when you are angry, I sometimes get angry as well but I try to attack the topic not the person.

If you have questions that is fine but please read through the forum to avoid double threads on a topic.

And last but not least, if you can not spell or do not speak english well, please post your responses and threads in a spellchecker such as http://www.spellcheck.net/ before you post. If you have excessive spelling errors or type using "ur" for "your" or "u" for you, I will delete your thread/post and not even feel guilty about it.

Enjoy

Let me add to this a prohibition on trolling. This forum is for serious political discussion (with the exception of the "Fun with Politicians" thread. If you wanna goof on a politician, put it there. If you just wanna post that some politician is a tard, just to agitate, don't bother.

EDIT: I'm not going to bother going through and implementing this rule on threads prior to my ascension to modship. Just keep this rule in mind from now on. Thanks, folks. :cool:
