There is only one rule:
- Post like a mature adult.
This rule applies to all areas of the site, including the Forum and the Question/Answer section.
If this rule is unclear, I can enumerate this rule down to a more granular level:
- Spell correctly.
- Use proper grammar.
- Be respectful to others.
- Do not derail topics.
- Do not post obscene or pornographic images or text.
- Keep chit chat to private messages (PMs). If you and one other person are the only people talking on the last page of a thread, that means you stole their discussion and alienated everyone else. PMs. Use it. It works.
- No "sick" humor. e.g. pretending to be suicidal.
- Do not create a new thread if one already exists with the same topic. Look back 5 or so pages. If it's more than 5 pages back, then it's okay to create a new one since dead thread revival isn't desired, either.
- Racism, etc. is not tolerated.
- Spam is not tolerated.
- Do not feed the trolls.
- Flag the trolls.
- Do not moderate from the back-seat. It is dangerous and punishable.
- CAPS LOCK MEANS YOU ARE SHOUTING.
- Use inside voices.
- Do not quote an entire post if it's the one immediately preceding yours.
- Do not abuse quotes.
- If you post while intoxicated, you will be banned.
- If you are not intoxicated but generally post as though you are intoxicated, you will be banned.
- The Relationships subcategory is for serious advice inquiries and discussions only. It is not for cybering or fishing for details of other people's sex lives. If you have a problem, state it in a constructive way. Again, do not create a thread that only says "wah wah why won't he call me back?"
- If you are banned, leave. Do not try to circumvent the ban. The number of forums out there that let you get away with crazy stuff are staggering. 4chan for example. Go there.

I have been wondering, would it be possible to start a thread full of Aristocrats jokes? I have been very hesitant to start it since the whole goal of the jokes is to be as creatively obscene as possible.

I think I've turned gay for you.
Go for it.

These all make sense, though I am slightly disappointed that the lovey dovey thread got locked. It was kind of nice to have a place to gush without anyone yelling at you, since it was clearly labeled and you didn't have to click it if you didn't want to.

I love the humour in the rules, it is one of the things that make this site so amazing.

Amgirl: It is better to restrict that excessive "lovey dovey" jumbo out of the Forum than to have it spill everywhere - again.

I thought that was the point of the thread, to have it there and no where else.

It didn't work before and it wasn't working now.

Frankly, I thought it worked a bit better than "not at all".

With multi-user messaging, why would you still need a lovey-dovey thread?

*shrug*
Sometimes you just like being sweet and it's nice to know you have somewhere to put it without getting mocked or made fun of.
And not everyone has the partner on this site.

It's still real either way, but a couple of the couples met online, if that's what you mean.
