You get this stop sign and a contract to agree to sign away your life or get banned.

Are things always this tough around here? How strict are the rules here?

1. I'm avoiding the GD primary forum
as a matter of principle. I *will not* engage in a flamefest on our own hopefuls.

I'm sure the Freepers visit GD: Primary on a regular basis, just to see how well we're ruining ourselves.

When in doubt, avoid the GD: Primary forum at all costs.

2. That's not what I'm seeing in Iowa today. I'm seeing a common goal
to replace GWBUSH no matter who the nominee is. This is coming from workers in every camp campagning for their man.

I was just wondering about the rules here since I got a big warning twice there when I posted responses.

6. Actually, I think freepers visit the GD:Primary forum
on a regular basis to post.

3. The stop sign is new but
you can remove it by going to options and then preferences I removed it because it was a tiresome to keep seeing it.

5. Yes. Just like checking you want
to go to 'latest' rather than 'lobby'; you check 'no', you don't want to see the scary rules when you go to GDPrimary.

7. I don't visit GDprimary
because there's little information or discussion, it seems to me. When it was broken the other day, you could feel GD fill up with the anger that didn't have a place to go.

8. No.
It's not that way in the other forums. GDP:04 has been a giant flame war since it started. The rules are stricter there to try to cultivate conversation beyond "YOUR GUY SUCKS!" "DOES NOT! "DOES TOO!"
