Community Guidelines

Be tactful, use common sense. Before posting anything it's a good idea to ask yourself these questions-

1. How will people react to this? What we say can have a huge effect on peoples reaction, and we should all be conscious of that.

2. Will saying this hurt people The answer to that question should give you an idea of rather or not your comment is worth posting.

3. Always excersize respect, and if someone disagrees with you do not attack them.

If you run into someone who needs correcting, keep these things in mind-


 * 1) Your goal is not to prove the other person wrong, but to stay true yourself and your values.
 * 2) Use the 'bracket' technique-preface what your going to say with a kind friendly word such as 'hey-name of person', and gently say something like  did you know...  or  that's not what I've heard .

If your on the receiving end of the correction keep these things in mind-


 * 1) They probably have your best interests in mind.
 * 2) Be tolerant and respectful

If you disagree with someone, and it's something that's more a matter of opinion remember-


 * 1) Ask yourself-do you REALLY need to disagree? If the opinion is founded on genuine ignorance, or intolerance it's okay to call someone out-but follow the guidelines for correcting. Otherwise just let it slide and agree to disagree.
 * 2) DO NOT bully, criticize, or belittle someone for their belief.
