Exclamation Political Threads/Rants/Posts-Rule reminder

Folks:
with the US elections approaching some debates can occur that can become very heated. In the past YT has tried to allow the debates to go on if they could remain civil but not had much luck. Some have let members being permanently banned from Yotatech, that is not something we like to have happen around here.
As I am sure most of you are aware the Political Folder is closed.

There are multiple other avenues for you to discuss political issues besides YT, please use them.

18. Political Threads/Posts

YotaTech supports land issues and encourages board members to become active both in the discussion and awareness of them whenever possible.
At times these discussions can and will be intertwined with political issues.
YotaTech strongly discourages discussions of political or religious nature due to the inability of such topics to be resolved through an online forum and the resulting arguments that often occur when dealing with such matters.

It is anticipated that our members will naturally have different and possibly strongly held opinions with regard to religious and political matters.
It is also expected that members will respect each other's right to their personal views, opinions or lifestyle.

This forum strives to maintain a family friendly environment.
If you sat down to dinner with friends or family that you knew had alternate views, you would not bring up such topics for discussion.
The same social rules of respectful engagement apply here.
Agree to disagree, Toyota interests are the unifying factor here..

If a member is compelled to continually express their political or religious viewpoints on YT, the user will receive a warning.
If these topics are persistently posted, the user will receive a temp ban and finally a permanent ban.
If a member feels that these rules are an infringement of their personal rights or liberties, that member is welcome to find any of the other countless forums available whose rules and guidelines will allow the full expression of their religious or political viewpoints.
