Where is a list of the rules of forum/code of conduct?

[Warbler]

I am trying to find a somewhere on here that lists the rules of this forum or code of conduct for this forum. I don't seem to be able to find it

[Jon Szanto]

For all practical purposes, one doesn't exist.

[Warbler]

Then how is one supposed to know what the rules are? What is allowed and what is not?

1. there is nothing to indicate Chrissy is a moderator or admit. So no way of knowing if any list of rules posted by him are official
2. I don't see a real list of rules listed there.

She posted a screenshot of them.

You’ll be waiting a while. You might have a look at the thread currently below this one.

There are no mods. There aren't even any admins, either. The list is owned and paid for by one person, who doesn't want anything to do with the running of it, but also has no interest in finding someone who will. Those of us who have been here for a long time attempt to make things work through a loose web of moderately-agreed upon... conventions, if not rules. Take a look at a person's join date, gauge the tone of their comments, and then decide whether to put any weight in their suggestions for how to navigate these waters.

Oh boy, does that remind me of another forum I was a part of. This is most unfortunate. I am surprised there isn't more bad behavior and trolling with the lack of admins and mods to keep things in line.

Perhaps you'll join us....

The Forum Rules such as they are can be seen at the bottom of every page including this one. Many helpful points are also included in the FAQ pages
The rules for posting on Politics & Religion etc forum are posted under its title on the Forum page. That forum was set up years ago and it was deliberately set up so as to not add any New Posts to the New Posts list that many members select as their daily first choice over Forum page. It was highlighted at that time that it was being set up like that so that everything pertaining to those subjects could be posted there in one place without disturbing any New Posts selections for other members who didn't need to see them. When you searched maybe you found details of it and maybe you didn't.
I am not nor ever would be a moderator or admin on this place but I know where things are and try to assist those who don't in finding them. In future, I will bear in mind that you already know it all and don't want my help.
Accordingly I removed my post giving you some info about black ink that you requested and I've added you to my ignore list.

One rule I learned early in life, and which I've always followed is; don't P into the wind.

This is the "rule" that saves the most aggravation for most folks.

This is from the site owner, "Topics pertaining to politics, religion, philosophy, and social issues. Not for the faint of heart. Also, do not post while high on ink fumes or after using ballpoints. However, please post as much as you want if coming from FPN. You have been warned."

As they say down here, "nuf sade".

[dneal]

Do they say "fair dinkum" in NZ?
