New Rules for the Abortion Forum:

Since abortion is one of the more divisive issues that exists, it is no surprise to the Moderation Team that The Abortion Forum attracts a lot of very aggressive debate. Over time, the Moderation Team has noticed an increasingly general tone of disrespect, rudeness, and attacks. Though individual posts do not always rise to the level of infractions, the tone of the sub-forum is poor. In addition, even when infraction are levied, these types of consequences do not seem to curb the behavior that we have observed, Therefore, we are instituting a special rule/consequence set that will apply to a violation, infraction or thread ban, that a member receives in the Abortion Forum in the hopes that behavior in this sub-forum will improve.

Once you receive your SECOND violation for behavior in the Abortion Forum, you will be suspended from the Abortion Forum for ONE WEEK.
Once you receive your FOURTH violation for behavior in the Abortion Forum, you will be suspended from the Abortion Forum for ONE MONTH.
Once you receive your SIXTH violation for behavior in the Abortion Forum, you will be PERMANENTLY BANNED FROM THE Abortion FORUM.

The violations will expire after a year, so if you have two in one year and then not another one, after that year is out, you will have none. The permanent ban, however, never expires, so if you receive six during one year, your posting privileges in the Abortion Forum will forever be revoked. Infractions received outside the Abortion Forum will not be considered in the count.

This new rule set will go into place in one week, in order to give everyone time to read this sticky.
