Forum rules

[Josh]

Hi everyone,

A couple of recent threads about streaming tv, pirating software etc have got us thinking. This forum is running great, better than we could have hoped, and that's completely because of the awesome people that have joined. We hit record numbers yesterday for number of new members, and number of people on the forum at one time.

The forum has worked so well because we are a group of likeminded people, who share common interests. As we get bigger (and better known to the public), we are inevitably going to end up having to do more moderation (hunting and firearms ownership are controversial at the best of times). We also don't really want anything on here (like discussion of illegal activities like piracy etc) that could be used as dirt against us by any "other groups".

We are eventually going to need a set of forum rules to keep things running smoothly, but we aren't comfortable imposing our own rules on any of you. This forum is a democracy, so we'd love some suggestions in this thread, and we can all build a set of rules that everyone agrees on.
