• The forum is open to all US military personnel and veterans from any era. Your membership carries a visual representation of the rank you hold in the military or as you held when you separated. Get this now! While we all do or should respect those accomplishments – here we are ALL equal, regardless of the pay grade you held in the military. If you can’t handle that, don’t join this private forum. If you attempt to impose your military rank here on others it will be your downfall, not ours. As an addition to that thought, a religious quotation “You shall know them by their fruits”. That says it all and what you see is what you get. Because this forum and YOUR membership is granted and not ordained, the only rank that is an inherent part of the forum is the forum rank you earn from participation or non-participation. Remember the old adage from the military about rank having privileges? Well sir or maam, you will find that forum privileges increase as you give more of your participation, knowledge and wisdom.
• The primary reason this forum was constructed was because of the foul format that exists on social media such as Facebook and Twitter. Some voices are not heard or allowed to speak because of their political or religious beliefs. Ours is built on respect and we will police ourselves, not some twit 2000 miles away who melts when they are stressed by comments other than what they profess themselves. BS, BS and BS! An additional word of caution is that we are not a religious forum so please do not try to evangelize. It boils down to “watch what you say”. There you have it, we police ourselves and will not let buttheads destroy our home on the range! Specific reasons someone would be booted off the forum and banned:
We will not tolerate cursing or obscenities, spammers, stalkers, buttheads (another word for Wash My Mouth), or racism. These are non-negotiable and those who attempt to commit these abominations will be flagged with a warning. Should a second offense occur you will be banned and lose your membership permanently. Regarding a know-it-all disruptor who gives constant unwanted advice. We pay for this board (which is considerable) and extend it as a courtesy and share to our brothers and sisters in arms, so thank you very much, we'll do it our way. Board leadership will listen to ANY suggestion as long as you send it by PRIVATE message to admin. If you air your gripes on the forum you will get a warning. Last, and not least, do NOT threaten any person or group, in any form or degree of threat, or you will go bye-bye.
