Board Rules

[Peyton]

Ok, here is a short list, but they will be enforced strictly.

1. Treat everyone with respect. Since we started the site late last week, we've had fantastic debate among a wide variety of opinions with everyone treating each other with respect. If you were a name caller or a person who started threads defining a "real fan" at a different site, don't do that here. Any thread I see that implies that a "real fan" wouldn't criticize this or that - it won't be recieved well. I hate that garbage.

2. Any fan of another team that comes in and starts randomly ripping the Falcons or Falcons players with stupid stuff will just be sent packing. If they come in and have civil debate / discussion, they are welcome here.

3. Anybody who starts threads with the sole purpose of being a jack ass will be sent packing. That's left up to the mods discretion, so ask yourself when you start a thread, "could this thread be construed as being started just so I can be a jackass?"

4. NEW RULE - I've reference this many times on the board, but I feel the need to add it to the rule list. Don't use "group speak" to circumvent rule number 1. If you are in debate with someone on the board, don't say "what a bunch of morons we have on this board" in an attempt to get away with calling that person a moron without being disciplined. It's not in the spirit of this web site. PM me if you need clarification on this.

5. Drop the "agenda" comments. Everyone here has an agenda. It's called an opinion. We all want to prove ours right. That is all of our agendas when we have debates on this site.

6. Rules 1-5 are not up for debate.

That's the rules for now. We will add more as we see fit. Thank you all for joining and I hope you find this forum as enjoyable as I think it can be.
