Frequently Asked Questions
Read this before posting. I don't have time to tell you twice.
posting rules
1. post in the right place.
General discussion goes in general discussion. Media coverage goes in media coverage. Sightings go in sightings about town. Fantasy date material goes in josh fantasy date. If you post in the wrong place, I will move it or delete it. You've been warned.
2. stay on topic.
Threads have topics. Stick to them. If you want to discuss something else, start a new thread. Don't derail existing threads. Stay on topic people.
3. don't use capital letters.
This is a lowercase forum. Use lowercase. Don't use capital letters. I don't care if you think it's important. Use lowercase. I don't have time to tell you twice.
4. no personal attacks.
You can criticize ideas. You can't attack people. Keep it civil. This isn't a free-for-all. Sarcasm is not a defense.
5. no spam.
Don't post the same thing multiple times. Don't advertise. Don't spam. This should be obvious.
6. edit your posts before submitting.
Think before you post. Once it's up, it's up. I can't fix your typos. I can't fix your mistakes. Think first.
