//snip// I would only ask that two rules be added. Don't make a personal comment towards a single RCU Member that could be viewed as degrading. I actually view flaming as acceptable as long as you are not degrading someone in the process of roasting them. Verbal attacks against elected officials within AMA will always be fair game, since they are elected officials and subject themselves to scrunity when they run for a position. My other thing would be not to disrespect someone elses home. I take great offence when someone says something about my home state that is uncalled for. We are by a majority mostly all Americans, and should view each other as a fellow Americans.
It's already here, Ray. Look just above the post/reply block.
>>>>>>>>Please resist the urge to curse, flame, degrade, insult or embarrass someone in your post. We encourage the free flow of your ideas, but believe that they can be communicated (and received) much more effectively if you keep things civil. If you have to vent, take it offline. We carefully monitor posts and will ban individuals who engage in offensive conduct within the forums. Thanks. (RCU Policies)<<<<<<<<
IMO that covers it all. It is very difficult to comply with, especially when some question/statement is fully reviewed / covered / etc., just two posts above.
In addition you use the term "...uncalled for." As 50% plane stated above, there are times various ethics are demonstrated and they may just make me feel like it's time for a "Call-Out". What really determines "uncalled for"?
I don't see any real requirement for additional rules other than the one RCU posts.
