So, recently, I thought it'd be interesting to get to know each other even more, by discussing our outlooks on the world, on topics such as politics, religion, morals etc. Obviously, these are very sensitive topics, and so I'm going to lay a few ground rules:
- Do not pressure anyone into disclosing something that they don't want to disclose. If they don't want to talk about something, then they don't have to.
- No ridiculing or insulting. Countering points in a debate or aspects of an ideology is fine, but simply saying 'That's dumb', for example, is forbidden.
- Following up on the previous point, don't make it personal. Don't insult a person based on what they think or believe.
- Don't discriminate. If you, for example, are racist, then that is how you feel, however do not discriminate against someone due to it, because - like it or not - they have the right to free speech. (Also, be warned, if anyone does feel that way, expect a long rebuttal from me :P )
- KEEP IT CLEAN!
Any comments violating these rules will be deleted, and if the same person violates these rules three times, they will be barred from commenting on this thread. We're all friends here, so keep hostility out of it.
Finally, stay on topic. Nearly anything can be discussed here, but please try to keep discussion on the latest HUNTtheTRUTH or piece of Halo media on the discussion thread, where it belongs.
Now, discuss/debate away...
P.S. For those who like to comment in character, it's probably better to break character or argue via allegories, than talk about the fictional politics of the Halo universe.
