I probably know a few of you but, unsociable git that I am, there are probably more of you that I don't know. I was fiddling around with the code for 200% tonight when it occurred to me, not for the first time, that I had no-one to turn to if it went wrong. To an extent, many of us are on their own, and setting up/designing/running a blog can be hard work. Anyway, there had better be some rules so, off the top of my head, this is what springs immediately to mind:
1. It'll be registration only. I'm still figuring this out, so bear with me if there are any problems with this.
2. The usual: no racism, homophobia, etc., apply, of course, but I trust you guys to be self-regulating and won't be jumping in, telling anybody what to do.
3. This is not a football forum. That might sound odd, but there are plenty of football forums out there - if you want me to add a forum to talk about football, I'll be happy to, but this is for "talking shop", as it were.
4. Spamming our own or each others' is to be encouraged, within reason, but there's no need to post a message on here every time you put a new post on your site.
Ultimately, everybody, I think, knows from moderating their own comment sections what is and isn't a reasonable way to behave on a forum. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or email me (the email address is on the "Contact" page on 200%). I'll be glad to help in any way I can.
