good question. If the old timers want to politely let the newbies know when they have broken one of the mechanical type rules as we are talking about here,(copyright, linking to "bad sites,etc) then that is helpful. But when it gets into admonishing one another then it gets a little annoying. It is bad enough to have mods breathing down your neck, but throw a few hundred posters on that and it is a little much.JBean, whenever you wander back through...would you rather that the "regulars" remind the newbies of the rules or that we back off? It can be a little difficult to keep track of everything, especially since the rules are a bit fluid. (That's not a bad thing, but it takes a while for the word to get around when they change.)
Some quick questions:
I'm a newbie.
1)If I believe that a POI could possibly be connected to the case, I can post a link, etc, correct? You're stating that i can't just post a random persons name without any evidence backing it up or someone's personal information? Just wanted to clear that up.
2) I was on the west Memphis 3 thread, and I noticed they posted a bunch of transcripts on a sticky thread. Are these people persons of interest? Or suspects? I wasn't sure how these people were related to the case. On each thread is there a link for me to get somewhat refreshed or familiar with a case before going through the thread?
3) you guys use a lot of lingo. Care to clear up any commonly used phrases that you use in threads?
Thanks!
