Cubs Forum General Rules *Please read before posting*

Cubs Forum Ground Rules (and I don't mean the ball getting stuck in the ivy)

Rush's rules apply here so check those out. Here are some additional points to note as we try to keep this forum relatively clean and fun for everyone:

1. Please be courteous to each other when posting. We don't care if you drop F-bombs or whatever, but when discussions/debates degrade into flame wars, it's no fun for anyone. Remember that there are multiple checkpoints before your post is submitted, so take a bit of time to think about what you're posting before you do it; there's a fine line between being funny and being an asshat. Very specifically:

No racist, homophobic or otherwise inflammatory remarks are allowed in this forum.

There will be no derogatory terms towards the Cubs.. that stuff stops now

We are going to implement a 3 strike policy. 1st time you get a warning. 2nd time you get infraction. 3rd time you get a ban.

If you come back after your short ban and do more junk. You will get a long term or permaban.

2. We would appreciate if you post rumors/stories that you also post a link to the source or at least point people in the right direction. Only takes a few seconds to do a CTRL-C/CTRL-V to paste the link into your post. (This is so we know that a source is legit instead of having to waste five minutes Googling it) THAT MEANS YOU WALDO

3. We would appreciate that all trade and transaction rumors be posted to the rumors sub-forum to help with organization. There is a designated thread for non-Cubs rumors.

4. We expect that people on this forum realize that this is the internet and this is for fun. We realize that there are certain members who might post things that would be considered stupid or controversial, but calling them a fucking idiot is not always the best way to go. We therefore reserve the right to delete posts that are inflammatory, irrelevant, or otherwise inappropriate. If the discussion cannot be salvaged, we'll simply delete the entire thread. So play nice.

That's all. Thanks for hanging out at CCS' Cubs forum!
