INTRODUCTIONS FORUM RULES.
Whilst we are generally lenient with insulting language/rudeness in other forums, this kind of behavior is explicitly disallowed in the Introductions Forum. Please welcome new members to the community in a nice manner, or refrain from welcoming them at all.
Note that this does not give you a carte blanche to act in an insulting or rude manner in other areas of the forums. Please try to be welcoming and friendly at all times, even if a member is disagreeing with you. Rather than engaging with spammers and trolls, please report them to the staff and let us take care of them.

Sentence three contradicts and overrides the first clause of sentence one. Negatio

Note that whilst we are generally lenient with insulting language/rudeness in other forums, that general leniency does not give you a carte blanche to act in an insulting or rude manner in other areas of the forums. It is all so simply simple. Negatio
