PIT Head Rules

In order to ensure a well-oiled and properly functioning free-for-all, bar-brawl, eye-gouging, sucker-punching, groin-kicking environment, we all must learn to play by these few, simple rules*:

  1. What I say, goes.
  2. If you're not happy with the fonts, the layout or the comments, go talk to someone who cares.
  3. If you want to be nasty or nice is between you and your God, but you must be funny. Or at the very least, mildly amusing.
  4. If you pun once, we will be embarrassed for you, but we will look the other way. We've all made errors in judgement at one time or another; If you continue to pun however, your punishment** will be swift and terrible. And will come when you least expect it. 
  5. If you are granted posting privileges, understand that it is an honor and a great responsibility. Do us proud. Puppy pictures are always acceptable, kittehs tolerated. People of Walmart photos should be dealt out in moderation.
  6. Obscenity? Profanity? Yeah, OK, this is a pit, but keep it clean anyhoo. If you can't be funny without using profanity, you're not trying hard enough. Or you're a f***in' a**hole.
  7. There will eventually be a 7, trust me.

*rules subject to change on a moment's notice, according to my whims.
** if upon reading that, your first thought was "He should have written 'PUNishment'", I hate you and you're probably already banned.

  1. I reserve the right to not be mildly amusing or funny. I gotta be me.

  4. Also, you're still on my shit list. It carries over. But i will say this: Ricochet could learn a few things from your design.

  5. ... just found this. Was surfing the PIT as part of my discussion with Tom Meyer that was essentially "promoting fred cole to contributor really makes me want to say fuck-you-ricochet," and found this blogspot site.

    1. Hey Ryan! If you sign up at Disqus you can have a Real Name and picture and everything. We've been using Disqus comments--which are much more interactive than standard Google--since about day three.

      I hope you stick around and chime in, we could use some new blood around here, or at least new ideas and points of view (blood is overrated and kinda messy to deal with, actually), and we all share your feelings about the the FC debacle.

    2. Feel free to message Tom Meyer about it. He said he thought I was wrong about Fred and about the membership attitude toward the whole thing. But no joke, I turned off the last podcast because Rob spent so long talking about how great the DS is. It just proved to me that he's never spent a minute on the member feed. And I came darned close to turning off GLoP, when JPod was talking about it, but I stuck that one out.
