Welcome

Nosuch is like an extension to my life. Anyone is welcome to come in, and to take a look, and if you feel so inspired, even participate...

...to a degree, however.

This invitiation is not a right. Just like if someone came into my house and began to act rudely, I would ask them to leave, I will do the same here. It's a policy that's not open to debate, or discussion. There's plenty of free web hosting available if someone wants to freely express themselves, and there's always Usenet. In those forums, anyone can do what they wish, and I have no quarrel with that.

But if someone comes to my site, and trys to kick up trouble and strife, out it goes. Disagreements and discussions are welcome, if they are done in a respectful and courteous manner. When a person crosses over that line, and yes, I am the judge of that, it is my site after all, and the remarks in question will be sent quietly to the bit bucket.

Usenet isn't moderated and any conversations there turn into flames in minutes. I'm not about to let the pleasant little community over here at nosuch be turned into smoke and ashes from the agenda of a handful of people who have an axe to grind and nothing else to do but troll people's blogs and try to cause trouble.

All in favor of keeping nosuch a friendly, enjoyable, flame-free space, say "Aye." All opposed, click the "Back" button.
