Define respectfully and politely. -- Think PG-13.

Yes, sometimes it's OK to talk like an adult and cuss a little within reason.

Example:

  • The new menu at my local restaurant fucking sucks. -- That's fine.
  • John, go fuck yourself, you are a fucking tool. -- Not fine.

Obviously, things will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.

Sorry it's a reference to a skit from "I Think You Should Leave," that's what the above comment was quoting.

You can't change the rules just because you don't like how I'm doing it.

All jokes aside, if the moderating team was as power-hungry, which we're not, we would not have better defined the rules publically and been transparent about anything.

Honestly, I can understand change for people is not easy. I also understand that not all communities are the same. There are some, where the mods are heavy-handed with everything and everyone. And a limited, short-lived few where anarchy rains until the admins shut those down.

Well, we are most certainly not anarchists here, but we also have no plans on instituting a police state either.

The people who would make these kinds of rules are the same people who wanted to be hall monitor in elementary school.

Provided it is Massachusetts-related and respects their rules, sure.

How awesome is it that we have the Legislator, Judge, Jury and Executioner all in one cowboy with a lightning fast trigger-finger!
