After some discussion, the staff has come up with a few new rules that will be enforced heavily in Tribal Grounds. Through the next week or so, we'll be cleaning up TG to include only topics that reflect these rules. Thank you for your cooperation.
Also note that any negative responses to these rules will get you banned. Instantly and permanently.
1. Tribal Grounds is not a place to complain about your personal life. Therefore, no references to your own personal life should be made, whether talking about past experiences, current events, or future goals.
2. Tribal Grounds is not a place to talk about the news. There are plenty of other sites where you can discuss and comment on news, such as digg, reddit, and others. Therefore, any articles discussing the news are now disallowed. This includes talking about anything on television, whether it be tv shows or sports events.
3. Tribal Grounds is not a place for random music discussion. Time and time again, we have been plagued with people discussing the same topic, asking what bands are good, etc. This stops right now. From now on, no music discussion whatsoever is allowed.
4. Tribal Grounds is not a place for academia. We are not meant for homework help, or discussion of academic topics. Therefore, no discussion pertaining to any topics that you might discuss in a classroom is allowed.
5. Tribal Grounds is not a place for arguing or flaming. Therefore, no discussion of potentially controversial topics is allowed. If you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. If it is somehow possible to make your topic controversial in any way, do not post it.
All other rules are still in effect. Thank you.
