Hey everybody. There’s been some rumblings lately from the higher ups that a few things need to change around here. In the spirit of community, let’s all do our best to come up with some good, wholesome new rules. No joking around in this thread!!! This is for serious discussion of what the best new rules in General Bull poo poo

Rule: anyone who used a slur in their post gets a JINX. not gonna list the slurs and bad words here because i’m not going to jinx myself, but you know what they are. anyway, when you’re jinxed, for 1 week any words you post will get filtered and replaced with a paragraph from Moby Dick. to break your jinx early you have to mail a polite handwritten apology to the Something Awful LLC headquarters in [Missouri or Kansas or wherever the hell it is again, edit this before posting].

Rule: Lots of forums have Idiot Kings (or “IKs” for those in the know), well GBS is going to have Village Idiots. The village idiot(s) is(are) randomly selected from the pool of posters who have had a thread goldmined within the last year. The selected Village Idiot(s) are, for the duration of the month, subject to the inverse of every gbs rule except the prohibition on NWS poo poo. Examples of normal rules everyone is subject to: “Worthless Posts: We do not care if you are drunk or high; please do not inform us of either.” “Low Content Posts: Please do not make posts containing no content (ie, "first post," "hello, I'm new here," etc.).“ "Forum Fuckery: Don't gently caress up the forums or any user on the forums. If you post a malicious link (any URL with spyware or code designed to annoy people) you will be banned." Examples of their corresponding inverses that the Village Idiot(s) must follow: “Worthless Posts: We do care if you are drunk or high; please inform us of either.” “Low Content Posts: Please make posts containing no content (ie, "first post," "hello, I'm new here," etc.).“ "Forum Fuckery: gently caress up the forums or any user on the forums. If you do not post a malicious link (any URL with spyware or code designed to annoy people) you will be banned."

Rule: Better be careful with the report button!! If, upon mod review, it is determined that the person youre reporting didn’t do something worth probating/banning them for, you will spend a week set to read-only for every forum except You Look Like poo poo and Business, Finance, and Careers. It’s the first step to a brand new you!

Hey OP! I hope you have a really nice day and things go well for you. Remember that there is nothing to worry about and for the most part things will work out. When you come home, I want you to do one thing. I want you to really consider everything in your life and show appreciation for them. Then I want you to get down on your knees and suck my dick, you fuckman.

Yeah. H_T_H's name is good and amusingly triggers the filter. The filter even changes his name when you quote him. Heh.
