Attn Winston: HA New Rules Draft

Post by GuitarGuy996 »

Happier Abroad Forum Rules

1. No Race Wars

Race my be a legitmate issue worth discussing, but this forum requires it's members to show respect for one another, regardless of color, race, or creed. Please vist another forum if you wish to bash members of a race other than your own.

2. No Flame Wars

If you have a serious, personal disagreement with another poster, please do so through private message or 3rd party instant messaging software. Disagreements are natural in debate, but please keep hate OUTSIDE the bounds of the public forum.

3. No SPAM

If you wish to sell something, please contact Winston or a moderator for permission before attempting to sell anything, even if it is relevant to the forum's core topics.

4. No Discrimination

We do not discriminate here. Anyone, male or female can positively contribute to the forum as long as you are not a troll (which should be obvious to posters/mods).


-----

Moderators will give 1 warning before any permanent bans.

-----


The internet is huge - if you have a problem with any of these regulations there are forums for you. This website is dedicated to fighting back against legitimate issues such as feminism and rampant misandry in modern, western culture. Many of us fight the good fight back at home, while countless others have chosen to wash their hands and live happier lives abroad. Our ultimate aim is to maintain a positive atmosphere throughout the forum so struggling men can find solutions to real problems they face.

-----

If you have a problem with any of these rules, do NOT start new threads, please PRIVATELY contact Winston and/or mods directly. Best of luck on your journey toward being "Happier Abroad"!

Winston, I am in India working at my online business. If you would like me to take on the role of moderator, please contact me through PM and we can discuss details. I will go right to work in cleaning up and bringing legitimacy to this forum.

Good job, Guitar Guy! Those rules sound like the most intelligent thing I've read here in a while.

Yeah like the MGWHORE Forum which is a fachist pseudo optimistic one. No thanks. Vivid discussions live from fights. This is the internet nobody will get hurt. Why don´t you go to the MGWHORE forum. There you can ban people. Yes you will love it :)

See, Winston, this is your positive trait. You can handle the concept of free speech :)

Though I have nothing against respectfulness people do interpret this different.

And no this is no hallo kitty forum. Life is a bitch.

We just need to get rid of the blatantly crap newly-registered posters who post 10+ times a day. There aren't that many culprits.

I think a better solution is to get Winston to create a new section where users who've registered before 2012 are able to nominate other posters to be banned.

Billy, nobody needs to be THAT optimistic, but we can easily maintain a civil forum where people aren't eating other alive.

G.Guy, I don´t think so. Did you forget how Repatriate went on a baning spree? There wasn´t even an apology. That´s how thinks work.
I think one problem is that people want to feel respected and feel home. This is almost impossible to create on a free speech forum. You can not have the cake and eat it.

The main aim of this site is to make money for Winston. Second is that he can have a forum where people will "respect" him.

Anyway, everybody has different oppinions. And how do you want to tell an idiot without calling him an idiot? For example When you eliminate all racist here you would lose some 90 per cent of the members and also Winston. Think about it.

Your concept is against the tradition of this site. I am shure you would have already baned me :)

Why do you think the abroad section of MGWHORE is almost non existent? Because they ban like there is no tomorrow. No risk no fun. That´s life. You should know it as you are in India.

You should report more about India in your other thread :)

The amount of spamming then was not to the same level that it is now though. When you have people like Peter Nolan who have 13 posts per day, more than twice what Winston has, there needs to be some action taken.

Billy I would not ban you and don't consider you a troll.

Anyway, this is my last post on the matter. Winston contact me if you're interested.

Who's all for this "IlluminatiIngrid" person being banned? She's worse than any of you morons. Why? Because she has NO actual posts. She's just trolling Peter, BAM and a few others. I mean, the bitch goes as far as making pictures of him and shit.

THAT'S the kind of person that the site needs to get rid of.

I'm against changing the rules here. On the other hand, the obvious spam (the kind that's selling something) needs to be dealt with ASAP, IMO.

Nice job GuitarGuy, but's its unlikely to happen. This has come up before and Winston has no interest in restricting "free speech" or banning the drama queens.

I still believe this issue will ultimately be the death of this forum. Sooner or later someone will create a forum with a similar theme, minus the flame wars, and HA will become just a footnote.

But even if he refuses to institute rules for a civil forum why can't he have a mod with priviledges to remove obvious spamming. Or simply have restrictions for new members, so a brand new member cannot go on a killing spree.

I'm with this moron. If any members rally or show interest, I'm down to help them create a site with HA's basic theme and message, but with no spammers and trolls. Just a exchange of helpful knowledge -- what HA should be.
