Just a friendly Reminder incase anyone has brielfly forgotten the terms of agreement.

<font size="-1">PLEASE USE COMMON COURTESY - Try to be polite and use common courtesies when having a conversation with others. Use words like please and thank you where appropriate. You'll get a better response to your posts when you are polite. Don't forget what your mother taught you: treat others the way you want to be treated. It also never hurts to use a smiley face if you wish to convey your happy thoughts!

DON'T FLAME OTHERS - Flaming is the practice of verbally attacking another member of the message board, and it is unacceptable and will get you banned from posting on our message boards. This may seem an obvious point at first, but many people use mild forms of flaming and don't even know it. Be mindful of the words you post. If the entire content of your post is to have a dig at someone you don't agree with, then don't make that post. Also, if one of your posts begins with: "No offense, but...", there is a good chance that your post IS offensive, and you may wish to reconsider making that post. Stay objective in debates, and don't get personal. If you have an issue with a post maker, please email a moderator.

AGREE TO DISAGREE WITH RESPECT - By all means have a healthy exchange of opinions. You can agree to disagree. You can challenge another member's opinions. But remember, you should challenge respectfully. Do not insult, abuse or verbally attack other members. We take a very serious view of offensive and vulgar messages -- especially those aimed at sexual orientation, gender, race, color, religious views, national origin, or disability.

SERIOUS DON'TS! - Never make a threat to any individual on any of our Message Boards. Do not harass or play pranks on fellow posters. Do not impersonate another user by using their nickname. These are rude and unacceptable practices, anyone caught violating any of these three rules will be subject to being banned from the web site.

I didn't have time to read through all the posts, so if this is posted innapropriatly, just ignore, but if their are any problems don't be afraid to contact Mike mike@civilwartalk.com
