the rules

[Abbey Marie]

her rules are just fine.....yours suck.....

Why must you be so black and white?

Why can't you discuss content?

Why don't you answer the questions?

This may be a good time to remind people that rep comments are not to be discussed in public.



Which was the next sentence to, and was left out of, truthmatters rule-quoting above.

hmm, I just read the meaning of that as discussing a negative or even a positive rep that an individual person gives you, not a discussion "in general" of the Rep Rules or repping manerisms?

I have seen quite a few posts on repping??? Quite a few of them Abbey...?

And I did not know that rule, I need to read them!!!! I have done this, made a direct comment about a personal negative rep, and MORE than once!

Truth, no one is dinging you for what you say. its all about how you say it.

For example, How many times has Jimmy pointed out that you have countless spelling errors. You can't go back and atleast fix some of them?

How many times have you just ignored what people say to you only to repost you're already refuted argument?

How many times have you asked for sources for arguments when they are based on the original story in the thread?

These arent "I disagree with you so im dinging you" points. These are all style issues.

Ive dinged very few people. But when i do its usually because of outrageous comments or death threats. Incivility should and is dinged. If you dont like that try being civil.

This is a moral issue

Yes, TM is repiticious. Aggrevating! Spells as bad as I do and does not make many (any) good points. That is no reason to gang up on her. That is mean! She is a child, y'all are grown ups (right?), bend your knees and have some fun. Ease up! All of you have discussed rep before on threads that had nothing to do with it by the way.

Hey, TM! Would your own buddy JD not be breaking the very rules you're complaining about? Shouldn't you be calling for her ban, or her ability to rep being removed from her on the grounds that she's abusing it, and not repping for content, but mere spite?

[shattered]

LMFAO!!! I just saw this ended up in Conspiracy Theories..

So reppable, but I don't want to abuse the system.

How about these rules, are they really followed?

Flaming - While in heated debates, we understand that it can become emotional and sometimes we let that get the better of us. The board will tolerate such outbursts to a degree. So long as it doesn't get out of hand, and become a habitual occurrence, it will be tolerated. If this is abused, the member will be issued a warning via PM and asked to refrain from further abuse. Sarcastic comments are not considered flaming. Not discussing the subject and attacking the poster in a nasty manner would be. We're all adults here, so let's again allow common sense to prevail here.

** I expect Staff to be held to a higher standard as they set the tone of our community. As I am asking them to take the high road and refrain from engaging members in 'flaming', members are asked to refrain from 'flaming' Staff. If you have an issue with board decisions, or a particular member of Staff, please PM an Admin. There will be very little tolerance for members that go out of their way to engage Staff in a manner unbecoming to the community. **

Abbey??? so what it is? Is the rule about discussing personal reps precisely that, the discussion of an individual person's zapping or positive repping another but NOT gerneral discussion about repping and repping mannerisms?

please clarify, so we ALL can understand the rules!

Nope, I just read the rules and found out what the exclamation point over each post is for so they will be hearing from me that way, from here on out...

I guess I should than Shattered for her kind way of letting me know this...

Thanks shattered, your the best!
