 Level: 2 CS Original | "1. Please treat everyone with respect. Insulting, derogatory and/or any other disrespectful discourse is inappropriate and unacceptable." I guess Calling every one who doesn't agree with him a Bigot isn't meant to be derogatory........... "2. Please do not engage in personal attacks (arguing with and/or attacking the person instead of addressing the topic) and try not to respond to such attacks, except to redirect the discussion to the topic." "I'm going to stop there, for every other claim is equally as lazy by Edward. There is so much deliberate misinterpretation as well - non sequiturs/strawman - it is comedic as to the intent to simply "debunk", as opposed to objective reasoning. It is a pathological intent to deny - period."-Peter J I guess peter was attacking Edward without evidence to drive to topic back on track. "4. Respect a Moderator's decision to lock a topic, move a topic, delete a topic and/or prohibit further discourse, or request users move a particular discussion to another channel in IRC or Teamspeak. When topics are deleted, a placeholder will typically be left with the same or a modified title and a note stating that it was deleted (if you cannot find a topic, it does not necessarily mean it was deleted)." basicly moderator are GOD, and the GOD's answer to Peter Joseph. | |||||

 Level: 3 CS Original | http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/joomla/index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=99999&func=rules It looks like they updated the rules page, it used to be even more hilarious and ironic. It had a whole section about forum trolls, and classified the trolls into various types. The funniest one was the dreaded Type 3 Troll. Basically, if a longtime loyal Zeitgeist member started acting out, it was explained that they were likely never a True Believer in the first place and were a Type 3 Troll, someone who had pretended to be a True Believer to gain peoples confidence. Sort of like the argument fundamentalists like to make when someone leaves their religion. There also used to be a rule against using ad hominem arguments, which I've never heard of in any other forum. It was really obvious that they didn't understand the difference between ad hominem and a personal attack. | |||||
