Hey guys,
Well that time is here... We will be instituting some new rules in the C&C forum. We will also be creating two other forums here in C&C. The first will be a Politics & Religion forum where people can discuss these issues in a civilized manner. The other will be a Platinum-Only forum where members will enjoy some of the same freedoms they enjoy here now.
This version of chat will change a lot. Basically we are getting rid of the insults and personal attacks.
What we are noticing is that by catering to a few individuals who get a thrill out of posting insults and making derogative comments, we are chasing away A LOT of people who don't want to participate in a site that has this sort of content.
The number of people who read C&C and decide never to come back, is greater than the ones who actually get enjoyment out of calling each other a "Fag" or "Cunt" just for kicks.
We will lay out a clear set of rules for the forum. Everybody is expected to follow them.
Some of you will complain at first, because nobody likes new rules, but I know you will enjoy the new way things will run here. Some of you might leave to never come back, as long as you were not banned the doors will be opened for you to come back.
For those that stay, I promise you we will have a new crop of good and interesting people to talk to. There will be a better level of conversation and association with the members unlike anything you have ever seen here before.
There will be some new rules regarding Moderators on the site. The Moderators themselves will have a new code of conduct that will require them to maintain a professional courteous demeanor at all times. In turn, the members are expected to maintain a level of respect for the Moderators at all times... The days of personal arguments with the Mods and Admins are over. There will be a new respect for the position, and a new level of behavior that will be expected out of people in this position... We will also be instituting some new Mods on the C&C forum who will be asked to help uphold the rules... Look to your PM boxes for invitations to join the Mod team. Most of you have never been approached for the Job before.
In order to maintain a good balance between the staff and members, we will also be appointing members for the newly created position of "Ombudsman". These members will NOT be part of the staff, but rather represent the interests of the forum members by investigating and addressing with the Mods and Admins any complaints reported by individual members.
More to follow.
Thank You.
