To get your emotions tangled up over the Internet.
We've heard your concerns and are working to develop a clear set of rules that will be consistently applied.
In the meantime, some of this is just common sense. Don't call out and/or insult the Mods in public. Take it to a PM.
We are going to modify the way we utilize permabans. If you catch a ban, just take it like a man or woman (or transgender). It's not forever, and bitching and acting out doesn't really do any good, especially, if you really enjoy the site. Just sit out your time.
Tone down the snarkiness with one another. It's silly, unnecessary, and not nearly as funny to others as it may sound in your head. I'm not saying that you need to be roses and sunshine, but God Almighty, there's no need to be an ass just because you disagree with someone. We are all different people, but we share a love of America, the 2nd Amendment, and guns. Despite any political or religious differences, we share those things.
Don't be so emotionally invested in your internet identity that you suffer genuine distress if something doesn't go your way. Nobody here has to prove anything to anyone else.
Finally, just enjoy yourselves. There are a lot of good people here. People who will help you, teach you, and maybe just improve your quality of life.
We will get some definitive rules in the next few weeks. Hopefully, that will cut down on some of the confusion and angst.
