What rules are there?

Hard rules:

  1. Always remain respectful of other individuals using the thread. If you disagree, do so in a mature and sensible manner.
  2. No personal attacks/insults.
  3. No political discussions. Please use the Thread 'General News Discussion' to discuss these matters. This is a strict '⊘ No Politics Zone'
  4. No NSFW or inappropriate content. This is a public chatroom, and minors and employers can view this site.
Soft rules:

  • When responding to a post, please use the 'Reply' function so people know who you are talking to. And the person gets the notification.
  • Try to refrain from double posting and keep the thread clean.
  • Necro-posting is only allowed if adding something of value to the discussion. Always check the dates of what you are replying to. Want to add more information regarding a topic, then feel free. Just raising the dead to say 'I like it' maybe could be done with a (y).
What is the purpose of this chatroom?

Simply put, this is a space for you to discuss to your hearts content anything you like. Seen a comet? Just got a new car?
Chat away.

Great idea Curtis, but the general news discussion is locked, maybe make a 3rd room specifically for politics ?

Because you ruined it. And you're ban evading running to Avery when I gave you a temp ban. Then you have the nerve to ask me for help. Problem with you and Paul is you have no respect and can't refrain yourselves from being petty. Yeah you ruined it for everyone. No one wants to see you post your bs anymore.
 
For crying out loud Unown, I answered your question about my wording " Big Daddy Trump " and I told you it was just good natured ribbing aimed at paul, it wasn't a violation of the TOU, however you took it as an attack against your ego, because you love to micromanage our conversation and you were no doubt upset that we didn't answer your invite to chat in your discord where you could further control the conversation, why not just let people enjoy a little freedom of speech within the confines of the TOU ?

p.s. May I suggest that you lead by example and NOT argue, simply consider what's been said and attempt to get along.

Yeah and how many times have I told you not to do that? I have no ego. Whenever something doesn't go your way you blame me and say all kinds of crap. Funny how that works. The terms and rules require you to be respectful. You and paul are nothing close to respectful. I'm not listening to your speeches anymore. Everyone and myself included are tired of it.

It is like you say 'truly awesome'. But also can be scary and very demanding of our respect. Being from the UK, we can get caught up in our relatively safe environment. Natural disasters do occur, but we are no hotspot for any natural disaster apart from tornadoes and flooding. I've always had a fascination with tornadoes. They are formidable and impressive acts of nature. But boy are they something you want to steer clear of.
We have quite a few tornadoes, and globally speaking the highest risk in the UK but we are lucky that they generally are small and shortlived.

There is also an asteroid 2024YR4 that could hit Earth in 2032

Asteroid 2024 YR4

When first discovered, asteroid 2024 YR4 had a small chance of impacting Earth on Dec. 22, 2032.

If things keep going the way they are going I’ll be pulling that thing in our direction.

On a serious note. I feel like now would be a good time to start plans on how to redirect it to reduce the odds further. Obviously things have to be well calculated and considered. But time is running out and this would be a good practice one for when we get a really serious situation
 
LPF will be under new management soon. All mods removed. Guess we'll see how things turn out eh?
 
Moderators serve a valuable purpose so long as they are fair and reasonable, you don't moderate an adult forum like you do a children's romper room, there needs to be a clear set of rules so that there are clear boundaries, because people want to express themselves and challenge opinions, provoke thought, that often involves more than robotic news reader speech.
