Thanks for all the details

*note* continued due to not being able to post a thread with over 1000 words lol


GENERAL ETIQUETTE REGARDING POLITICS AND THEIR DISCUSSION

1. Politics and their discussion by nature can result in heated arguments. It is important to remember to respect other people's opinions, even if they do not agree with you or line up to your political beliefs. They’re a two-edged sword. Sometimes staff and moderators like having that information available on those threads here on rokslide, other times we just wanna delete them. They seem to bring out the worst most times. Staff and mods have had discussions about completely banning political posts before, but for now, it is not against the rules.
2. If you are here just to post on the political threads or start political threads only or push your agenda we are going to start helping you leave the site by permanent ban. (see the trolling definition)
3. As a general rule of thumb, don't bother posting threads in which the subject matter is political and in no way shape or form related to hunting, fishing, public land, public land access, firearms, etc. There are plenty of other social media and forums for you to discuss such matters on, why litter this forum with them?
4. Its refreshing to have a place where you aren't being constantly inundate with political rants, issues or crisis. The politics in this country have forced itself into every freaking corner of every day life. At Rokslide we want to talk hunting and take a break from the political echo chambers.

Been in and out of here for a while, just lurking but glad to read through the users guide above and hopefully can share some of the limited hunting knowledge I’ve accumulated as a late onset hunter. Cheers.

That should be required reading before joining (or was it and I clicked past it? (eeep)). Very helpful, but also very reasonable. I’ll be honest though, I would have assumed this was all dudes on here. I am glad there are women here and I will definitely not ask them out on this app. I will wait for the appropriate time and place, like when “OK Cupid the Rokslide edition”gets released. Just kidding. Happily married here. All the respect to the women.
