I can PM something, but going from the rules in JT’s first link
RULES:
- ENGLISH IS THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF THIS WEBSITE
We warmly welcome members from all over the world, and value their insights and perspectives. And, we understand that communicating in English can be difficult for people who did not grow up speaking the language. Nevertheless, we ask that people post their public messages in English so that everyone can understand them, and that material linked on Youtube or other websites also be in English.
Ich werde in jeder beliebigen Sprache sprechen, Herr Evolutionsbreme.
2. PERSONAL ATTACKS AND INSULTS
Personal attacks and insults are not tolerated here. When replying to a post, your own post must be about the post to which you are replying, not the poster themselves. Any personal remark about another poster that - in the judgment of a moderator or administrator - could reasonably be regarded as an intentional insult in the context of that discussion will be subject to infraction. Please also keep in mind that simply saying something that’s not very nice is not necessarily an insult, nor does the fact that you are offended necessarily mean that you have been insulted.
The rules regarding personal attacks extend not only to individual posters, but to groups as well. For example, calling all Republicans idiots is the same as calling every Republican on the board an idiot, and will not be tolerated. A certain amount of latitude may be granted in discussing the policies and the practices of a political party or other political organization, but posters should be advised that this is thin ice, and be cautious about making remarks that personally insult the members of such parties or organizations. And again, simply saying, “I hate Republicans” does not constitute an attack or an insult against Republicans. “I hate Republicans because they are corrupt” is an attack, because it is attacking the character of all Republicans.
Attacks against public officials, political figures, celebrities, etc, are allowed, as long as they do not violate the guidelines concerning threats or incitement to violence (see below.)
All Republicans are idiots. Moving on since we don’t see to have a problem with out of line personal attacks?
- FLAMEBAITING
Posts or images that, in the judgment of a moderator or administrator, are specifically intended to provoke emotional responses or personal attacks from other posters, rather than civil discussion, will be considered flamebaiting.
- HARRASSMENT, BAITING, TAUNTING
Stalking or harassing other members is forbidden, whether in the public forums, through PMs, or in social groups or albums. If you don’t like someone, leave them alone or put them on ignore. Any attempts to bait or taunt another poster will be considered infractions, including posters who are banned from the forum or banned from a thread, and thus unable to reply. This includes quoting other members in your signature without permission, or mischaracterizing their statements by quoting them and changing the quotes. Disclosing personal or confidential information about other posters or staff - including but not limited to personal identities - or disclosing confidential communications may be considered harassment.
We have the rule already but be draconian with respect to enforcing no doxxing, some of this can be handled by ignore or PMing a mod, again not a problem I’ve seen so far.
- TROLLING OR DERAILING A DISCUSSION
If you don’t want to discuss the topic, stay out of the thread. Posts that are, in the judgment of moderators or administrators, intended to disrupt a discussion rather than actually contribute to it will be considered trolling.
Uh, good rule that would effectively ban everyone here instantly.
- THREATS OR INCITEMENT TO VIOLENCE
Any post that expresses a direct, indirect, or veiled threat to anyone - whether it be another member, some other individual, or a group in general - or an incitement to violence will be dealt with severely, may result in an immediate permanent banning, and may be reported to the appropriate law enforcement agency. This includes (but is not limited to) what are known as “indirect threats,” such as (for example) wishing that public officials or police officers come to harm, or expressing a desire for armed insurrection against the government.
This is what we need to talk about.
- RACIAL, ETHNIC, HOMOPHOBIC, GENDER, OR RELIGIOUS SLURS
Any post or image that is - in the judgment of a moderator or administrator - a slur against any such group will be subject to infraction.
LDO
- ATTACKING OR CALLING OUT STAFF OR ADMINISTRATION
Moderators, Advisors, and Greeters are volunteers who work very hard and make a number of personal sacrifices to make the community as welcoming as possible. They may not always be right, because they’re human - but they will always act in good faith and with the best of intentions, and this forum would not be possible without their efforts. When they’re posting on the forums, feel free to debate and argue with them just as you would any other poster, but attacking or calling out a staff member who is acting in their official capacity is against the rules.
We welcome constructive criticism or complaints, but the public forums are not an appropriate venue for criticizing the staff, administration, or ownership of the site. If you have questions about a specific moderator decision, feel free to send a PM to that moderator, an administrator, or the site owner. Or, alternatively, members can always start threads in the Feedback forum to ask the entire staff questions about specific moderator actions or general questions about forum rules. Please be aware that the rules prohibiting personal attacks against staff also apply in the Feedback and Disputing Banning Resolutions forums.
Obviously mods are fair game and are liable to any nature of derision our imaginations are capable of inflicting upon them.
There are more rules below but again we have most of them covered alreadyf and I need to go mow the lawn.
