GUIDELINES for this forum are intended to promote and maintain it as a conduit for exploring LIBERTARIANISM
PleaseSee http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Libertarian That purpose can become swamped by one or more, of the over 700 who are registered to post, 'flooding' the forum with multiple daily 'cut&paste' imports of the entire text of formal articles published elsewhere. Please use the forum to publish YOUR on-topic composition; in which can be included appropriate selected EXCERPTS with reference link (URL) to 'more' content. The forum's purpose can also become swamped by posting OFF-topic messages. Thus, moderation of messages may be imposed on some posters in order to help maintain the conceptual focus of this forum. That means 'take it outside' (of this forum) when you want to 'flame' (personal attack, ad hominem) someone in this forum. That includes juvenile gossip and witch hunts about WHO iz, or iz not, a libertarian. see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LibertarianFlame Obviously, untrue attributions or flagrantly explicit distortions regarding another poster's advocacy in this forum (aka: slander) are also forms of ad hominem; thus off-topic here.
