You can check the modlog, but we admins are pretty active, and developed our list of rules over a long period of trial and error, and staunchly enforce them, with temp or permabans. You can check them on the site main page, but we do not allow hate-speech trolls, or people who make everyone's experience unpleasant. We're much stricter than reddit in that regard, who have an extremely "libertarian" / lax policy about hate speech, letting communities like stormfront operate there for years.

Overall we want this to be a welcoming, pleasant, and healthy environment.

Use the report button if you see anyone breaking the rules, and we'll get to it as quickly as we can.
