Hello there. You're probably reading this either out of curiosity, or you've been summoned here because the majority of the fed has grown sick of you. Either is fine, because this place is just what we need for all of us to settle our differences and come together in a moment of peace, harmony and understanding.
Or, we can just impose conditions on you to get you to shut up.
Here's how the Emporium is going to work.
Simply put, here is how the Tearjerk Emporium works. TJE is a forum where flame wars are not only accepted, but they're encouraged. Here at Second Chances, much like our name, we don't believe in censorship or shutting people out for petty reasons. Rather, we'd much rather wait for a good reason. So instead of us banning flamewars for the more short tempered of you, we're giving you a forum specifically for them.
1. If you have a problem with someone, call them out in here. What you say is entirely up to you. If you want to have a civilised discussion about your problem, then do that. If you'd rather just cuss them out and practically cut a promo on them, do that too. Whatever you'd like to say.
You must include in the title of your thread 'Your username vs. Their username' so the person you're calling out knows it's about them, and for archiving purposes.
2. You are not allowed to edit posts. You know when you say something that you later regret? The edit button is a nice little fix for that. Not in here though. Say what you have to say with conviction, or not at all.
3. Do not drag any of this into other forums or the chat. This forum is designed as a filter. Bring this anywhere else, and you'll be banned, non-negotiable. Little spits in the chat are tolerated to an extent, but if they get out of hand, make a thread or hope I don't step in.
4. Do not drag any of this into other forums or the chat while the thread is active, either. See above.
5. If the fed as a whole is so tired of your crap to the extent that I am forced to make a thread for you, you'd better get posting in it and you'd better make a damn good point in it. Failure to post in a thread I have made about you within 2 days will result in a ban.
And them's the rules. As you can see, pretty much anything goes, so I might as well explain the specifics. As soon as the little argument has begun between the two of you, you have exactly one week to get over one another or else there will be consequences. One week after the topic has been created, I will lock it, and off the contents will make a judgement.
Sometimes there may not be a judgement. If I'm convinced the pair of you have gotten along afterall, or if I'm pretty sure the pair of you are going to have the common sense just to stay out of each other's faces, I'll probably show restraint. But those of you who know me also know restraint isn't necessarily my thing.
Judgements vary, and more often than not, will probably fit the crime. It may be something like suspending you from the chat for however long, or making it so you can only RP and not post anything OOC for a while, stuff like that. If you're a real idiot, I might put a more joking clause on it. If you're a real idiot, you're gone. Sorry, chuckles.
After each thread's locked, I'll post my verdict so everyone in the future can look back and laugh. Hopefully you'll be among those.
Best bet is just to get along, hmm?
