New site rule

[Maydup]

I saw this as a site rule elsewhere and thought you might like to adopt it Ed.

//You can respectfully disagree with the message or topic, but you cannot attack the messenger. This includes attacks against the user’s spelling or command of written English, or belittling a user for posting a duplicate topic.//

good idea .

[Kiki-frog]

Yes, a good idea.

[boxtops]

Don't the Site Rules already say as much, but in a different format?

[ladybirder]

Already in the rules, but not to that exact wording.

[anneasquith]

the above message is imo better !

[DTCwordfan]

there goes the sport......

[sandyRoe]

If people want comity they'd be better off in SAB, surely?

[anneasquith]

morning sandy......... what ?

[sandyRoe]

;-) mornin',

[vetuste_ennemi]

Oh dear. Half the fun gone. Lighten up, Maidup.

[Nibble]

Mention not the dark side Sandy, lest the trolls be listening.....

[Old_Geezer]

Someone actually reads the rules !?!?! Must be a first. Anywhere.

[vivandorron]

Rules are rules and AB has many which I endeavour to follow. However, I would wish to see them all in a 'single' page printed format.

Perhaps the Ed can list them and send us an e/mail which sets them out; with a warning that anyone who ignores them is in danger of being suspended or even banned.

Hope there is not a rule forbidding such comments as I have now made.!!

Ron.

anneasquith guilty of insulting sandyRoe's spelling mistake. Orf with her head:-)

[DTCwordfan]

There is a button called report for inane remarks, Ron! (lol)

Actually, maidup's comments isn't too bad except for the last point, duplicate or triplicate topics should be dumped on by us. If a newbie, ok a friendly warning, but if an existing member, (like one earlier on William Blake), then bam!

[woofgang]

So long as I can "politely" tell posters to go and do their own homework.....

[missprim]

My apologies, there is actually a word comity.

[sandyRoe]

spelling mistake? Where?

[DTCwordfan]

comity - the respect between nations of each others comedy?
