As a lot of you guys know by now, I struggle writing rules. I’m looking to get feedback on some rules written by a helpful user, that I really think should be implemented because they are clear and actually show the intent I have.

  1. No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee’s rules.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, anti centrist or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and pointing out the failures of our ideological interlocutors. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Be Civil. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but no personal attacks from either side will be tolerated.

  4. No Extremism. Calls for violence, pushing a narrative of religious, gender, sexual or racial supremacy, or any other forms of extremist rhetoric will be met with a permenant ban. Extreme statements which label an entire group are also unacceptable and may result in a temporary suspension.

  5. Be Excellent To Each Other. Remember the people you are arguing with are humans, and although you may disagree on the method, we are all looking to make a world where life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is freely available to all.

What do you guys think?

    A “no sensationalist titles” rule might be a good one. Otherwise you tend to get posts like “Obama is the anticrist” for wearing a tan suit or using mustard. Or you get posts insinuating that the V.A. is paying for migrant healthcare when in reality the V.A. is paying for processing.

    Such a rule might be indistinguishable from a “no low quality news sources” rule.
