Formulate a draft policy for PF then. I think you will find that drafting a speech policy that does not also inhibit speech that you would like to encourage is harder than it sounds. The policy needs to be easy to understand, simple to enforce and preserve/refute the advantages I raised in points 7 and 8 in post 56.Jarvis323 said:To me this seems like a better argument for having them than against having them.
I don't agree with your opinion in (8). First, not using emojis to hurl thinly veiled insults doesn't mean you have to do it with words instead. You can just try to be nice to people and constructive instead. And personally I think thinly veiled insults are not better than direct ones. And because using emojis for food fights and thinly veiled insults isn't discouraged, I think it actually might more often lead threads down a negative spiral as people get frustrated, angry, resentful, and less communicative.caz said:Formulate a draft policy for PF then.

In order to move forward, I will temporarily grant that you have refuted 8. Please proceed with your plan.Jarvis323 said:I don't agree with your opinion in (8).
