Please list at least 2 things you would like your fellow posters on Dave's to follow while posting and replying to posts on this forum.....
Rule: You need to start them with "Thou shall............." or "Thou shall not..................."
.......you know the drill  |

Thou shalt use Google first.
Thou shalt use the search function (when it is revamped) or do a VISUAL SEARCH and shalt not post the second, third, fourth, fifth, or sixth identical thread.
Thou shalt post in the correct forum and only in the correct forum. |

I am Dave's ESL cafe who brought you from the free west to slave in the Hogwans and Public Schools of Korea.
Do not have any other Cafe before me.
You shall not make for yourself large avatars.
You shall make no wrongful user name nor bypass the f*cking swear filter.
Remember Rteacher and Keene and keep them holy.
Honor thy Gopher and McGarrett.
You shall not Bassexpand.
You shall not commit IGTG.
You shall not Cuckoo for kimchi.
You shall not bear false Wylies99 against your Big Bird.
You shall not Joo against Missseoul.
Thou shall not Superdave thy poster's Peach.
Thou shall not Regicide thy poster's Princess.
Above all:
Thou shall render unto Spliff that which is Spliff's.
Some of the above may be combined with others depending on your Posting Orthodoxy.
Those who wish to parse the Posting Orthodoxies must start another thread. |

Thou shall not post arsey, smug, annoying responses along the lines of "ever heard of google" when someone creates a thread seeking info.
The simple logic being that most people have checked google, recognize the potential misinformation on the web, want more timely info, or simply like the format of (somewhat) direct give and take on discussion forums that accounts for the specific nuances of individual queries.
Of course, that won't stop the continual vomiting forth of such comments from sneering fucks who seek every opportunity to show how "with it" they think they are. |

Thou shalt learn to use the wheel on your mouse to scroll past posts that don't interest you.
Thou shalt not post a whine about the mere existance of a post that does not interest you.
Thou shalt not post about how boring the site has become unless you have started a couple of threads a week on diverse topics.
Thou shalt keep in mind that not every topic is about you.
Thou shalt make a good-faith effort to balance the number of whining posts with a fair number of positive posts.
Thou shalt work really hard on mastering the difference between 'there', 'their' and 'they're' after you have solved the mysteries of 'your' and 'you're'.
Thou shalt not post dribble, um, er...drivel. Or do I mean dribble?
And it would be really nice if Thou stopped attacking gyopos and being racist pigs. |

Thou shalt not introduce red herrings, make strawman arguments nor commit any logical fallacies. Behold! The Lord slayeth the deceivers and unbelievers!
Thou shalt not posit lay, base discourse in opposition to scientific consensus. Behold! The Lord killeth those who soil his good name!
Thou shalt always clearly indicate what a thread is about in the title. Titles such as "hmm" and "does anyone ever....?" are filth and abomination and behold! The Lord sterilizeth those apes with eternal fire.
Thou shalt always know when thou hath had your ass whupped and give up. Saying something stupid and false, having your ass whupped, not liking having your ass whupped, going to google and googling your previous assertion and getting yet another ass whupping is pathetic behavior. Behold as the Lord whuppeth their asses!
Thou shalt not take needless offence, foam at the mouth, use ad hominem and name-calling. Chances are, your opponent delights at your rage. There are some un-PC facts out there for sure, so either (a) deal with it, or (b) call a waaahmbulance. Behold! The Lord smasheth their skulls!
Thou shalt always observe the wisdom of Justin Hale, Big Verne, thepeel, Gopher, Steve McGarrett, and several others. If these guys say something, chances are it's correct. The Lord slayeth those fools who take a contrary position.
Thou shalt avoid capitalization for emphasis. It looks VERY common, lower class and is TOTALLY UNNECESSARY! Not least, it pisses off THE LORD and you will BOIL in Satan�s feces for 46 hundred and score years!
Thou shalt believe in Justin Halean Right Wing liberalism, which means being Right Wing on absolutely everything except evolution, global warming, big government invading bedrooms, the war on drugs, and the moral necessity of atheism. Behold as the Lord whuppeth the butts of those who refuse His gospel truth! Behold, the Lord crusheth Right Wing Conservatives and Left Wing liberals! Thou art to support Justin Halean Right Wing liberalism as the rope supports the hanging man!
Thou shalt make use of dictionary.com and avoid your/you're confusion at all costs. The Lord overseeth their famines, plagues and pestilence.
Thou shalt always skip igotthisguitar�s posts. Nothing of interest lies therein. Behold! The Lord exterminateth those who read an igotthisguitar post! |

Thou shalt, when peeved and sorely tempted to let an opponent know certain facts regarding said opponent's mother and sexual deviancy while wearing Russian Army boots, instead avail oneself of The Remedy of First Resort: pull a cold one out of the fridge and crack it open, chanting the mantra:
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
AUM. And namaste. |

Did you forget the mantra already?
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
"It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... It's only a message board ... "
