Request for Input from Members on the Creation of a "Member's Handbook"

[Revoltingest]

1) Some examples of "Do" & "Don't" behavior might be useful.
Do:
If a post has multiple possible inferences, don't presume one.
Ask for clarification. This avoids those annoying straw man arguments.
Don't:
Start a thread with....
"Watch the usual suspects come here to defend <hated politician>."

2) Not all bad behavior should be against the rules.
Advice against some types should suffice.
Examples of things to avoid....
- Repeatedly demonizing the other side in religious, political,
& economic discussions (broken record syndrome).
- Creating echo chambers which dis other members.

Excellent! I shall at once inform the beautiful and friendly couple who own RF of their new status as deposed "business-owners-in-exile"! Given what a rowdy and unruly forum we can be at times, they probably will weep in profound sorrow for all of three minutes before breaking out the margaritas.

as long as they fix the search buttons....

Perhaps the manual should encourage appreciation for how
good things are here with a reminder of the bullet dodged.....
This place was for sale a couple years ago.
(A kindly staffer alerted me.)
I seriously considered buying it.
Price was cheap.
ROI was great,
But I feared time commitment & acquiring necessary tech savvy.

Imagine it.....I'd be The Grand Poobah, Herr Fuhrer, Chief, Top Dog, Head Cheese,
Your Majesty, The Man, He Who Must Be Obeyed, Couch Commander, Dictator For
Life, The Decider, The Governator, Dear Leader, Vozhd, Your Excellency Mediocrity,
Imperial Wizard, Sir Revoltingest, Supreme Father, The Unbannable, Mister Man,
or Hey You (note capitalization).

I blame my own damnable laziness, that's what I blame.

Too bad I'm too old to change.

No worries, my friend. I will post at you every day, until it's done!

Too bad I'm not into casting spells, anymore.
