Point of Parliamentary Procedure

Now that our little rebellious community of forsaken kommenters has grown exponentially, (pours one out for Black Friday)(ruins sneakers), we should probably set some ground rules.  And since unlike 2% of you I’m an attorney, I figured I’d get us started.

Back when things started to jump around here we had some discussion about posting etiquette.  Since nearly everyone has posting privileges it’s pretty easy for someone’s post to be overwhelmed by new posts before people have had a chance to enjoy the earlier one.  sort of like I’m doing to poor fmwarner right now.  That, however, is his fault because I don’t want to look at that hipster douchebag he used as a feature image any longer than I have to.

Before you post, take a minute to see if someone has recently put up a post.  If there’s a new one, or one with only a couple of comments, save yours as a draft.  You can also check the dashboard and see all the posts, (Hint:  click “All Posts”), which will tell you not only when someone published the post you’re about to run over, but also show you posts that aren’t yet posted but have been automatically set to publish at a future date and time.  We have some very eager beavers around here when it comes to getting their team previews out.  Said the guy who published his two days early because he couldn’t figure out how to set the post for a later date.

In short, just give everyone a chance to have their post see a little time on its own.

Also if people are going to start wars in the comments about who’s more right about whatever topic I am going to edit your comments to “penis” and leave it at that.

DTZM Edit: PENIS
