Hi guys! + Stuff you should know

Hi!
This forum is, I think, a temporary substitute for the @U2 forum.

disagree, I'll stay here happy...

I hope this site isn't temporary. I think some of us felt stifled on @U2. I'd be very happy if this site welcomes well thought out posts, conversations, and friendly debates. If so I'll stay here.

This site is most certainly not temporary - the aim is to build a truly all inclusive community where mature, open, thought provoking discourse and a few laughs are the order of the day.....all taking place in a respectful, civil environment that finds the right balance.

The admin and mod team are currently working out the forum rules and here is a little extract from that work in progress which gives a nice insight into what will hopefully be created here:

"These rules are not long or wordy on purpose - simply because we don't want a focus on rules and moderation and bans etc....we want a focus on good discourse and an enjoyable community - let's all work together in our community to make it a community we can all be proud of and where everyone is welcome and everyone enjoys it."

Language restrictions? Is cursing a yes or no?

Cursing is currently allowed and won't get you in trouble. We're going to sit down and decide if things will remain that way, but I do know speaking personally that I found the cursing restrictions a bit excessive on other forums.

Curses seems to be used rather sparsely around here, at least compared to other online communities (Interference, anyone?).

Well, that's fuckin' ace
