hello anons.

first of all, let us say we love you all. even when you're whiny and angry and pmsy.

we want to remind you of a few things to set the tone for this entry.

1. this is a positive only anon journal. most of you have seen the kinds of things we deleted in the last thread, but if you need a reminder here are some:

- criticizing decisions other players in game have made. it wasn't your decision to make and as long as that player is happy it doesn't matter.
- name calling
- expressing dissent over things that did or did not get done for all 200+ characters in the game.

2. no more "ugh, no more memes". if people want to post memes let them, you do not have to participate. if no one responds the memes will die on their own. no one is stopping you from posting other things between the memes.

3. arguments of any kind will be deleted. the second either of us sees any name calling or snippiness comments will be deleted. we will be deleting entire conversation threads if need be. we're sorry in advance if there was good discussion in those threads, but sometimes it's best to just do away with the entire thing.

please remember that, once again, this is a positive only anon journal. if you want to bitch, head to nonny. that's what it's there for.

we will rule with an iron fist for a while until we can all go a while without anything getting blown out of proportion.

lastly, if there are things that you think should be deleted please link us. while there are two of us we both have jobs and other things going on. we can't be sitting in here all of the time to police what goes on.

you don't have to like the rules, but we ask that you please respect them. we have insurmountable amounts of respect for you all which is why we are keeping this a positive place. we will allow discussion, as long as it doesn't fall over into an argument.

please, think before you post. all kinds of people come in here from members to trolls to prospective new members. if you wouldn't want to see that written about you, don't post it.

	you deleted a discussion that wasn't an argument in the last post, so you'll have to excuse me if i don't believe you when you say you'll allow it. please don't lie. if you don't want discussion in here then say that. that's fine. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	there is discussion and then there is heated discussion laced with sarcasm and name calling and nitpicking. we deleted discussions that we didn't think fit within the "positive only" parameters set forth here. there are two of us deleting things, so if this doesn't apply to what you are talking about i apologize.

On the subject of debate/discussion vs. an argument, what gets a discussion thread shut down is accusatory, confrontational, aggressive, and disrespectful language. This includes, for me, bitching about the bitching, or anything that perpetuates an environment of hostility. I don't think either of us are happy to be shutting down productive, respectful discussion threads; we want that to happen here, too.
