A reminder from your SDA moderation staff
Dear members,
We would like to thank all of you who have been patient and level-headed over the recent weeks. The moderators who have been working the SDA area have seen a great increase in the number of reports, and we are working to help you and your fellow members get along with each other, and to put out some of the fires.
To help keep things in order, we will be moderating rather more strictly for a time. We ask that all of you please understand that our goal is to restore and maintain the peace in the SDA forums.
Reminders:
1) Threads and posts about Progressives in the Traditional forum, and threads about Traditionals in the Progressive forum can very easily cross the line into flaming, and thus can be seen as "baiting." Staff will action such threads and posts accordingly.
2) Posts complaining about being reported, threatening reporting another, or commenting on all the reports made in a given thread (by seeing the symbol) will be deleted and actioned by staff.
3) When there is a flood of reports, staff are more likely to staff edit or fully delete a post when we find a violation, rather than ask you to edit your own posts.
4) Staff give warnings FOR MINOR violations of the rules, and infractions for MORE SERIOUS violations. Warnings do not carry any points and therefore do not count toward bannings. However warnings allow the staff to better track recurring violations and ongoing harassment and/or spite reporting.
The CF rules can be found here:

Please take a moment to read these rules, and to reflect on them.
