Keep Atascocita.com Friendly:
A Couple Guidelines:

• No insults, name calling, or inflammatory comments intended to start a fight. Refrain from posting personal attacks or grievances publicly. Avoid broad negative generalizations about other Atascocita.com members.
• If many people might interpret a message as racist, bigoted or sexist, please refrain from posting it.
• Don't pretend to be someone else, or post under several usernames.
• Never post personal information without permission, either publicly or in private messages.
• No "stalking behavior," including: following a member from one discussion thread to another while criticizing him/her; following someone into another thread and trying to continue a disagreement that began elsewhere; disparaging an individual in a thread where that person is not participating.
• Debate can be lively, but must remain civil and respectful.
• Keep the forums clean: messages that are too crude may get deleted. Don't post sexually explicit or violent pictures.
• "Keep ADC Friendly" applies to all participation on the site, including private messages.

Moderators have the final word on forum decisions. Any message that we feel doesn't keep the ADC forums friendly and inviting for others, may be removed or locked by moderators. We are willing to discuss disputes in a calm manner, but publicly attacking a moderator, or intentionally undermining a moderator's actions, will get your account locked.


Hey, What About Free Speech?
Atascocita.com is a privately owned web site, which means we can and do restrict certain conversations on the forums. We do this with the goal of keeping Atascocita.com a friendly and inviting place for most residents of Atascocita. Just like you couldn't curse at church, or use racial slurs at Disney World, without getting kicked out; we have set certain reasonable limits on Atascocita.com members in order to participate. This generally means making sure your messages are friendly and respectful of others. The Internet is a big place, and there are many web sites where all types of controversial and inflammatory discussions are allowed, but ADC is not one of them.
