Welcome to the Business, Finance and Careers forum! Your current mods: pmchem, Baddog Investors should be cautious about any and all posts and should consider the source of any advice. Various factors, including personal or corporate ownership, may influence or factor into an expert's analysis or opinion. All posters are advised to conduct their own independent research before making any decisions. In addition, posters are advised that past performance is no guarantee of future appreciation. Rules, no drastic changes from the way things have always run here:
 Please post about anything else involving money or meta-commenting on money, and please feel free to make new threads! You can also reply in this thread to request reboots or edits of megathreads, ask questions, suggest changes, complain, etc. Passionately arguing about stuff is okay and gonna happen, but keep rule #1 in mind. If there is any issue with moderation, or mods aren't replying to a situation fast enough, you can always email forumadmins@somethingawful.com . This is a good route to take for users without pms as well. Although you can always use the report button to get mod eyes on something. We plan to have a rotating (biweekly?) pinned, brand new thread to spur short-term discussion of various topics as a way to stir up chat. Ideas for rotating pin topics are also welcome here. Please visit BFC at large instead of simply bookmarking threads! Here, have a look. Baddog fucked around with this message at 02:33 on Apr 19, 2023 |

Sundae posted:Any historical rules transferring / getting canceled? (No Blue Story, report a Zaurg on sight, etc etc.) pmchem and I have kinda different feelings about zaurg, hah! So let's stick with the current "no zaurgs" for now. Blue story was an even worse zaurg? No blue stories either. I like "help me with my disaster" threads, but prolly don't want to re-open the old ones. Donut thread is good! Baddog fucked around with this message at 22:07 on Jan 7, 2023 |

2023 should allow zaurg to exist in BFC, but perhaps in a throttled fashion. Maybe a max of one post per week. Just enough to satiate zaurg cravings, but not enough to create chaotic meltdowns. Please advise. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

zaurg posted:2023 should allow zaurg to exist in BFC, but perhaps in a throttled fashion. Maybe a max of one post per week. Just enough to satiate zaurg cravings, but not enough to create chaotic meltdowns. Please advise. a reasonably phrased request that may be considered. I shall discuss with baddog. but it should have been sent via PM, because... Baddog posted:pmchem and I have kinda different feelings about zaurg, hah! So let's stick with the current "no zaurgs" for now. right now, no zaurgs.

moana posted:Every now and then, as a treat speaking of which... RULES UPDATE: Zaurg is now allowed to post in BFC once per calendar month. Reasoning: Amnesty. His post history the last few years is largely benign, infrequent, and boring. The ban far predates the current mods; baddog and I see no particular reason for an ongoing subforum ban. The ban is being relaxed to 'one post per calendar month' as a probationary experiment. He still has to follow all regular BFC rules. If we find his posts causing problems, the ban may be reinstated. If life somehow finds a way to carry on, the calendar month limit may eventually be removed.

Hadlock has created a new thread for discussion of global economics / business / finance and BFC-related current events: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4027219 He outlined a set of rules in the OP (totally of his own creation, no mod input). We're going to give those a try. To keep things on track there with a BFC flavor, that thread will be modded more strictly than other BFC threads, for now. Everyone, please abide by the OP's rules.

I was wondering whether SA had a consultancy thread? I'm not a BFC poster but I thought it might be in here if there was one.

Fourier Series and any past/present/future alts are now subforum banned from BFC. Rap sheet has the details: https://forums.somethingawful.com/banlist.php?userid=226239 Even if he re-regs he is not welcome back in this subforum; some of his behavior on a past account was taken into consideration for this decision. Please report any new posts on sight. As this is the feedback thread in addition to the rules thread, please feel free to post here if you wanna chat about this or anything else meta.
