I tested this out in my journal and some people liked it, so here goes.

Now we have better rules for the mods, but I think we ought to have something that says what the f_w members expect. Anyway read and lemme know if this is lame or not, add more, whatevah.


Fandom_Wank Snarky Bill of Rights


We reserve the right to not get blamed for your sucky behavior. Fandom_wank members are far too fat and lazy to go bothering people outside our group. If you want to go trolling or harassing people for the fun of it, then do us the courtesy of leaving the community first.

We reserve the right to decide for ourselves what's wanky and what isn't. If you get pissed at somebody and bring your personal gripe to the community, be warned: we might decide that you're more mock-worthy than your opponent. Got a personal gripe? Take it to [info]fandom_rant.

We reserve the right to post stupid stuff. We reserve the right to gripe when when stupid stuff is posted. That's the way we do things, so don't get into a snit about it if someone doesn't like your post. Or do get in a snit about it... whatevah.

We reserve the right to be nice whenever we feel like it. Don't assume that we're going to snark at you if you ask a simple question, like "what's a BNF." Unlike some communities, being a plebe here doesn't automatically make you a target.

We reserve the right to read fandom_wank threads without a bunch of graphic porn popping up on our screens. No, we're not prudes. Some of us have kids running around and some of us read at work. Use your graphic icons in your own journals. If you must post something graphic in a fandom_wank post, put it behind a cut and mark it "not work friendly."

We reserve the right to wander off topic as much as we like. If you got wanked and there's 250 comments on your thread, then guess what! Most likely very few of them will mention you at all. The only way you'll know what we're talking about is to read all the comments. Yeah that sucks, so sorry.

We reserve the right to think for ourselves and question authority. Always. Forever.



Edits are in red.

Sorcha posted this on the info page. Let her know if you want to suggest a change.

Thanks for letting me be a part of such a great group.

How about adding this clause: We reserve the right to negotiate any or all of the above if one provides a lifetime supply of Doritos.

Could we make the word "trolling" link to a page on trolls? I'll provide the url. (I'll have to search again since I didn't bookmark last time.)

Okay, the URL for wanky is http://www.macquariedictionary.com.au/p/dictionary/slang-w.html

The URL for trolling is http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll

These seem to have good definitions and don't have a ton of popups.
