In the post titled Updated forum rules, tkrunning emphasizes the addition of two new rules for maintaining a constructive environment on Nomad Gate: no unsubstantiated accusations and no spreading negativity. Users are encouraged to review the full rules here. A dedicated thread for venting frustrations related to ARI delays is available here, where strict enforcement won’t apply. Violations of the rules may lead to posts being hidden, deleted, or users facing bans. Users are asked to report any inappropriate posts.
I’ve seen the need to spell out two additional forum rules to help keep Nomad Gate a constructive and welcoming place.
Please don’t:
Make unsubstantiated accusations about individuals or groups, including ascribing malicious intent without clear evidence (see Hanlon’s razor)
Spread unconstructive negativity
Please also review the full list of rules here:
I do of course understand the occasional need to vent, especially for ARI applicants affected by the ridiculous delays. There’s now a dedicated thread for that where we won’t be enforcing the above rules as strictly:
But beyond that thread, any posts breaking the above rules will be either:
Hidden until you edit them accordingly (in the case of an otherwise constructive post)
Deleted outright, or possibly moved to the ARI rage thread if it’s not too context-dependent.
Repeat offenders will either get a temporary or permanent posting ban.
If you see any such posts, please report them as inappropriate or off-topic. Thank you!
