**POLL** Should there be a set list of rules for OT?

[DAGTA]

Absolutely, but it wouldn't matter since anything you say on any other forum on the internet can be cause for being banned at AT now. You don't even have to post here to get banned from here.

No. Our rules here must remain unwritten. It's part of our culture. The axe constantly hanging over your head.

hmm if they were written how would we know we have them all listed though?

As long as people find indescriminate/unfair/random banning funny and root for it, it will never change.

Just my observation as one who is a recent 'frequent' poster. I haven't been indoctrinated into the system yet and I can still sit back and look at it...

I have never seen one, but maybe there is? I think if there was a set locked and stickied it would be easier for people. I really can distinguish a lot what is on the line and what isn't?

I am not trying to be a dick about this, I just think there would be less problems if there was a hard list to go by?

Do you think there should be one?

yes I understand the rules for the most part, but I see bans and locks that are not nearly as bad as other things.

Mods: I am not trying to cause controversy with this thread, I just think it could be good to get some discussion about this out here.

EDIT: I know there is a set list in FS/T because of money, but what about the friendships that have possibly been made here? I don't have any friends from here but I'm sure that a lot of members do. They probably could consider their friends more valuble than money anyway?

If you agree or disagree, please post, if you post something retarded please go away.

A post like that should be against the rules!

No wins for now until set rules are in place and then most of the No's will be gone

Not too much structure, but some "guidelines"
i.e., No homophobic phrases/racism, it's ok to joke around but respect each other, babe threads will get locked, don't be a douchebag

[Kilgor]

Rule number 2: If you don't have anything nice to say don't say it.
