Any age restrictions? I'm 16 but deeply interested in politics and current events for 2 years now, wish I had someone my age to talk to haha.
Hi everyone. Thanks for hosting this place. I'm interested in people's world views and challaneging them. Before I dedicate myself to this forums can anyone answer a few questions I have? a) How are people banned? b) Is there an appeals process? c) How autonomous are moderators here? For instance can the moderators ban or pass infractions exclusively on their own voilition? Or is it so that there are strict guidliness and process for moderators when dealing with miscreants? d) Would you say that there is a culture present where challanging moderators is discouraged in the sort of way that "Hint Hint, look at the colour of my name. Now shut the (*)(*)(*)(*) up". e) Where can I find the forum constitution (the rules) and is swearing allowed? Thank you
this is just a test, I tried posting a few minutes ago, maybe I did not wait long enough after newly joining?
This is to introduce myself to the forum. As you can see I have taken the name of one the great American writers of the 20th century, who never got the recognition he deserved while he was alive. 'Blade Runner', the first film adapted from one of his novels was released a few weeks after his death at age 54. Phil was a humanitarian, progressive, and one of the most decent people who ever lived. I will try to live up to his example on this site.
How come I can't still post on this Forum? Am I ... blacklisted or what? Any explanations> I registered in the mid of June this year, tried to post ... and the things I posted NEVER came up. Why?
This 10 posts being moderated and not visible to older posters is such a sensible idea. It gives me the feeling that the Mods here, are keen to help newbies settle into the forum with the least amount of trouble. Cheers Bill
Hello, I'm Alaska slim, and according to the Ontheissues test, I' am a Cosnervative-leaning Libertarian. I'm eager to get into the thick of things here, though I'll try not to bite. BP
Hey, Slim. Good to have you! We're all libertarians here. Well, all the smart ones are, anyway. Hopefully, we'll get you to the top of that diamond before too long
Hey Slim, try this quiz. It's only ten questions. I'm just curious to see where a conservative leaning libertarian like yourself would place on it.
