It has been brought to my attention that we sound very angry and mean. This post is an attempt to address this for all of you disgusting cowardly lurkers.

The posts you are about to read are made by skeptics who are actually pretty nice people. We can't act like asshats on the official skeptics forums and sites, so we come here to blow off a little steam. Sometimes this can appear quite heated. Nerd rage often is. But at the end of the day we are all skeptics trying to debunk the same stupid bullshit that floats around the Internet. Unless you're a True Believer or Zeitard lurking. Then you suck ass.

We will probably never succeed. Acting like asshats is a great way to accept the absurdity of the situation.

Thank you for your time.

I joined because conspiracy theories make me want to rip my ears off and punt fetuses.

I think CS has rules somewhere that sort of give a disclaimer... maybe... Let me pull them up...

*hour later*

Yeah found the forgotten rules of CS. Should add in Matt's disclaimer as well to the rules somewhere.

http://conspiracyscience.com/forums/topic/forum-rules</p>

These are the rules of the forum:

If you respect me, I'll respect you, even if we disagree. However, if you choose to be belligerent, then you'll be treated the same way.

0) Rule Zero: Use common sense, and I know that's hard to come by if you're from some wacky forum on the Internet, but give it a shot.
1) This is my private web site, that means I can do whatever I want
2) I don't owe you anything; If you direct a post towards me I don't have to reply, ever, but I probably will.
3) I don't like racists, anti-Semites, or religious nuts, and I'm ready and willing to ban any of the above.
4) Keep "bad words", i.e. cursing, to a minimum, because it can adversely set off filters at someone's school or job and block them from seeing certain content.
5) All content that's Not Safe For Work - meaning if it wouldn't get by in an office at the Vatican - be sure to put NSFW around it.
6) Advocating violence against others, suicide, euthanasia, and so forth is not allowed.
7) Posting anything against the law is not allowed - that being threats, child pornography, etc.
8) Guess what, conspiracy sites and movies aren't good sources, don't be surprised if I, or anyone else, doesn't accept it as evidence.
9) Posting topics like "you're wrong, so there!" in the Corrections Forum without providing evidence will get you banned. Trust me, you didn't "stick it to me", I hear it all the time.
10) No drive-by posting. Only post something if you intend on reading the replies and joining in the discussion.
11) Keep a thread on topic. Sometimes discussions will start to get off track, but if they do, create a new thread and link it.

This page will probably be more elegant one day, but this works for now.
