My desire is to give you all a web experience like no other. In doing so, I'd like to create a community that offers it's members and guests a place where they can go and voice their opinion regardless of topic.

It is for this reason that I'm offering to set up a political forum. However, I have seen several sites allow this topic to get way out of hand so I'm willing to set it up with the following rules:

- Everyone has an opinion and is free to express it.
- You're views are yours alone and are open for discussion and questioning.
- Under no circumstances will flaming, belittling, insulting, or harassing be tolerated.

I'm extremely open minded to virtually everything. I do have a problem with members turning on each other and will police it to the extreme.

None of this is meant to sound as harsh as it probably does. I'm simply very concerned about keeping this site a positive resource for a diverse population. We are all different people with different viewpoints, none of us deserve to be chastised for it.
