What is allowed and who can be banned or placed in the corner....
Let's see if I can make this simple.
Let's see if I can make this simple.
First off, almost everyday we have to make a judgment call, sometimes right, sometimes wrong and many times somewhere in between. Life goes on no matter what. We might also miss some questionable stuff on the forum that we would pull most times. That is because it may be buried in the middle of a 40 reply post that got very boring after the first 3 replies. When we miss something, but catch yours and remove it or you, just know that life will still go on. We are NOT here to delete questionable posts or replies or edit your replies over and over again. We are here for the same reason as you…to have a good time. Constantly having to edit or warn the same people gets older than old. It will stop..
1. Nothing that is perverted or obscene past the point of what we will allow our young children to sit in our laps and read will be allowed. This is a no brainer. Again some things might get overlooked and if someone sees something that objectionable, please let us know. The line had to be drawn somewhere and I did it when I started this site up. This will never change.
2. No questioning of how this forum is run or the decisions that the management makes on the Open Forums, which includes "Why was so and so banned" or "Why was this deleted or editted and not this" etc, etc, etc. If you want to question a policy or a decision do it via PM. You may contact the administrator (Woody Williams) or either of the global moderators (decatur, Huff).
No matter how much support you may think you have, DO NOT air problems on the forums for all to read. We will take your considerations and think on them. If you truly have support for something that you think is an outrage, have all your buddies pm us the complaints. We will then take them all into consideration. May never make a change, but at least you can vent.
How long do you think you would last in a company if every time a meeting or all company employees and stockholders was held you talked bad about how the company was being run and how you hated being there and how you disliked management.
3. This one is a toughie and a judgment call, but it has been being made from day one and will not change....If your primary purpose for being here is to stir the pot that stirs just fine on its own without yet another spoon, you will be removed. That line is VERY fine and when you step over it, we will make that judgment call.
4. We are not the "truth police" and will take no sides in a controversy by deleting what one side calls a lie unless it is readily apparent.
This has nothing to do with personalities or touchy subjects. This has to do with discussing things CIVILLY!! This has to do with the huge number of compliments we get saying thank you so much for giving us a safe place (a place that is very different than the majority of forums you visit) that we can unwind from a long day and enjoy a little hunting and fishing and good times.
Finally for those of you that need another place to go where you can play more than we welcome or allow, check around there are plenty of places on the web that is a no holds barred kind of a place....Hunting Indiana is not that place.
Thanks,
Woody Williams
