I don't think anyone has even used the catch all rule yet. You did on me once. It was the last time you banned me and gave me a response about it.
To help you, it was on the PM string dated 1/20/2016. Found it, you're right. Least I didn't just use that rule, 3 others were there and I just tossed that one on top of it. I know. When Rooks asked, I showed it to him. That's why he didn't remember it right away.
I'm still the only one that rule was used against, so...go me? Nope it was used on some one else that same day. So go both of you! ..go us?
I know who it was used on too.

what about stories that occurred initially over 6 months, but its new information that just came out? Case by case, really - if there's enough there to sustain multiple pages? Sure, make a thread. that can be a pain to determine some times. I know some ppl have complained that i have to many 'negative' threads in the past. Yet the times iv posted positive stories that actually had some substance for discussion, they never make it past a third post. Where as the others can go on forever. Yeah, my positive threads go about the same way.
That old saying "no news is good news" has a corollary, "good news is no news."

Will there be some kind of running list of "forbidden" topics?
Removing the editing feature is gonna bug me, I use it to reword and add specificity to me posts. This will likely need to be done in multiple posts if it's removed. Prepare for more clutter.

Will there be some kind of running list of "forbidden" topics? Not like the section is going to change much since the topics are the same delicate ones. Should also add a rule saying "Any Anti-Vax thread gets nuked on sight and the OP strung up by their ankles and tarred/feathered into submission." Touched that on page 1.

There's one, and if you read what I said, it's not forbidden. You just have to bring something other than your feels to the table, is all.

Or, you could just take your time and give it some thought in the first place. Try it! You might find it helpful.

Okay okay, forbidden opinions if you must. Either way way we should keep a running list of them is all I'm saying.
I do think about things I say. I'll try and think about them even more. Regardless there's still going to be additional clutter. These aren't press statements, it's a conversation.

Yes, and you know what you can't do in a conversation? Rewind time and change history. You just keep moving, clarifying if need be. You know what kind of conversation gets edited after the fact?
I'd like to think we have higher standards of discourse than they do.

This could actually be a good thing since people will no longer be able to use condescending and obscene talking points to deflect away from the conversation at hand. Right?

Altima, you are poking the admin in the eye again.

I don't think thread starters should be allowed to delete their original posts.
Ever.
If it gets deleted or nuked by a mod, fine.

Hey now, Tuxedo Mask's job is being Tuxedo Mask, and being the only good looking male character ever drawn in that series.
Someone has to stand around and look pretty, and it sure as hell wasn't meatball head.

Hi!
Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
So... I feel like I am just gonna violate some of these, I just know me. Can we get a pre-ban in effect for me in the P&R section?

welcome regardless. I am the guy that makes the joke that went too far. I am sure I will see a few topic bans.
Hi!
So, at some point this week, the March FFXIAH patch will hit, and with it are going to be some changes to the Politics and Religion section. I've given it a lot of thought, and consulted both the moderators and some of the heavier posters, for what I think is a viable and sustainable model to keep this section flowing while still maintaining a sense of order. If you have questions or concerns, ask them here.
Below is the node that will serve as the new top post in Random Politics and Religion - it's the changes, followed by the original top post from Random Politics and Religion, as a reminder.
