I think that the Lutheran denominational forum has done a wonderful job regarding the new "rules". I especially appreciate how they were able to clarify who is eligible to be a "full" member of their congregational forum as well as how those members will be identified:
"2. Generally full members will be members of a Lutheran or Moravian congregation, but realizing that that is not always possible, there might be some who are Lutheran who do not belong for whatever reason to such a congregation. Note that a Lutheran congregation doesn't have to have Lutheran in it's name.
These individuals who are Lutheran without belonging to a Lutheran congregation, will however have certain characteristics.
A. They will uphold the
Apostles, Nicene, and Anthansian Creeds.
B. They will hold to the
Augsburg Confession as a true confession of biblical truths.
C. They will hold the five solas as they were originally formulated.
a. sola Scriptura, scripture alone, the books of the New and Old Testament in the Bible are the sole rule and norm of faith.
b. sola Gracia, grace alone, we are saved totally by the grace of God and man cannot contribute or cooperate in his justification.
c. sola Fida, faith alone, we are saved through faith, and not by works.
d. solus Christus, Christ alone, we are saved totally for the glory and by the works of Christ.
e. soli Deo Gloria, glory to God alone. The purpose of everything is and totally shall be the glory of God.
It is asked that full members either display through their icons (either outwardly exposed or identifying Lutheran in some way when a cursor hovers over the faith icon) or put something identifying themselves as such somewhere such as in their signature line in order to help the moderators of the forum."
If you'd like to see the rest of what they've done (perhaps we'd like to model ours similarly?) read here:
