"You and I must make a pact. We must bring salvation back. Where there is love. I'll be there."
Many forums have rules. Many have guidelines. We don't want to dictate. Instead, we hope that you would come here and take part in a pact amongst ourselves to be a community.
We ask you to please treat all other members with respect and courtesy. Please do not make discriminatory, racist, sexist or derogatory remarks to other members. Please avoid posting any illiegal, obscene messages or pictures. And please avoid posting private details about yourself, or another member that may upset them. We want this forum to have a family atmosphere but we also want respect for privacy.
We have no problem with debating and discussing. In fact we encourage it!!! What we would like not to happen is arguments. When people argue it means someone or both or all aren't listening to the other people. If you can't find anything nice to say, then please leave it as is. It's very simple guys, you all know what's nice and what's mean. If you wouldn't like it said to you, then please don't say it to others. Lets try to keep the freedom and respect wide as an open field and not step on each others toes. But we know you all know and we trust you. If you find yourself feeling attacked and people aren't listening to you then contact us. Please.
We don't want to use a word filter, as we believe you all have it within in you to resist swearing. But we don't have a problem with swearing. It's all about the context in which it is used.
We don't want to ban any of you. We don't want to give out warnings like you are a bad child. This forum is freedom of speech and love. All we ask is that you are courteous of one another and do not limit or step on boundaries of each others freedom.
Last, but not least.. Michael, his family, band members and friends. Please have respect for each of them as you would another member on this forum. And, we do mean all of them. Name calling is bullying no matter whether you know then personally or not. Also, we all know Michael is sexy but on this forum lets just give him the time of day and keep it PG clean. His message isn't "Ladies - Aren't I sexy???" If you know what we mean. ;D
