Just a friendly reminder to stop in and read the rules. I put a TON of work into this project, especially in the beginning, but nothing took more of my attention than covering and updating the rules as needed. I went thru all the proper channels at Giants.. Making sure I comply with any laws or rules that may apply to using this forum in the manner we do.. I have taken great care to make this a relaxing and inclusive place for the FS community.. A great deal of thought was put into the rules sections.
Please allow me to direct you to the Rules Section here. I implore you to read the rules and understand them. Reach out to me if you think I have overlooked something or there is an inaccuracy that needs brought to my attention. But understand that by using the forum, I assume you have taken the time to read the rules and know that I will moderate the forum based on that understanding. I am not Giants. I am not a company at all.. I am an individual who had an idea that with the help of a few other people and of course the participation of our community became a reality. I don't get paid or endorsed to do this. In fact.. other than my enjoyment, I have nothing in the world to gain from this.. Neither does any other member of my admin/moderation team. Ultimately it takes time. Time from our responsibilities.. from our families.. from our game(s) even.. And we enjoy it.. we do it because its fun.. and its rewarding being able to reach out and bring people together in such a wholesome way. No toxicity or nonsense..
Honestly this is one of the nicest forum I have ever laid eyes on that was public, without an approval process or anything as I never wanted it to feel like I was gatekeeping people. I have only ever had to "moderate" this forum 2 times.. yep just 2.. sadly both have been within the last week or so and both were spam which while arguably not the worst rule to break, it is still RULE #4 and ultimately I did what I thought best for our community. This community is something to be proud of! Lets keep it that way. Read the rules, the about and the etiquette sections respectively. Keep our forum clean and productive and it will continue to be a nice place for folks to visit and use.
