Mod Post: Public Service Announcement

[modernelegance.livejournal.com]

Since this is an election season I've been expecting an influx of activity in the community and I am so excited that things are finally starting to rev up again. Two reminders to keep the peace so we all have a great time in the upcoming months:

When creating a post, please use the tag system so we can keep our posts organized. There are a lot of great resources posted so keeping them tidy for later use is appreciated. If any tags are needed, please let me know and I will create them.

I have received complaints about a few new members who are not conservatives or anywhere on the "right" scale. Now, while I do not have a problem with discussions where opinions differ on issues, if civility is lost and trolling occurs, the user(s) will no longer have access to the community. As our user information clearly states:

We welcome anyone who calls herself a conservative and a fangirl...If you have come to "correct" our posters, "enlighten" us to facts, or otherwise engage us in debate, you are not welcome.

Go to ontd_political or debate if you are not going to remain civil and harass/heckle/bait those you disagree with. This goes for everyone irregardless of political leanings. As of yet I am not going to ban anyone since some of the discussions are valid, but from this point on there will be no tolerance for obnoxiousness and baiting. This community is a "safe place" for consevatives as the userinfo clearly says. If you want to engage in debate or banter, you can do it elsewhere.

Thanks for reading and Keep Calm, Breitbart expects us to carry on!! ;)

Comments

As I stated, "snarky comment to every single comment of every singe thread, I consider that trolling with no value whatsoever to the discourse. And note I said snarky, not vitriol. I don't want an issue out of every view or comment I make. Discussion would be great, but a smart mouthed comment? No thanks. "

Pizza? That's mindless chit-chat with my friends. I come here for honest and intelligent discourse with like-minded people.

Supreme - thick crust.

Thank you. On that note, I have to go to work :-(

Pizza actually sounds pretty good right about now.

Tell me about it. I had a EGD in 2000 and my gastritis was so bad my GI doc was worried about me getting esophageal cancer at some point in my life. But I've been on Pepcid twice a day since then and usually do okay. I just can't eat very spicy or hot foods.

Indeed. Amazing when you're 16, you can eat anything, When you're 30, not so much. Thank God for antacid. Just saying.

Though, Pizza sounds right about now. These days, I just eat cheese pizza. Not worth the heartburn for all the other toppings.
