You can only start a thread on a topic you are very good at, a thing you know how to do well, and your initial post will be reserved for you explaining your expertise to the other members. The SHROOMERY UNIVERSITY is a novel type of forum, inbetween a social forum and an ontopic forum. As for general rules, the Sitewide Policies apply which hold true for any forum but OTD. Secondly, more forum specific, the The Pub Forum Rules & Guidelines apply, we all know them, but here they are stricter enforced. Its really pretty straightforward stuff that we all know, post respectfully and intelligently, no trolling/baiting, no racism and illegal content, use your brain and be nice. Be courteous, forthcoming and mature in your discussions. Permanent forum specific bans will be handed out with more readily than in other forums to truly problematic members and cannot be contested: we want this to be a quality ontopic forum not a battleground for trolls and big egos. But now, the different rules that are specific for this forum. This forum differs from the other forums in that it has an University/College style format. You can only start a thread on a topic you are very good at, a thing you know how to do well, and your initial post will be reserved for you explaining your expertise to the other members. This can be any topic: something about how to use the internet, how to turn a lightbulb into a DMT pipe, how to grow Copelandia mushrooms on dung or how to bake an apple pie that turns any grandmother to shame. No question threads, no request threads or casual discussion threads. These will be promptly removed and may result in you being banned from this forum. In this forum the OP is the professor, and the starting post is the class/lecture he or she gives about a life skill he is very good at, for the benefit of the members reading it. The subesequent posts after the OP are reserved for questions and discussion between the OP "professor" and the "students", his fellow posters. The "Professor" will moderate his own threads. He can edit and remove posts and expel unruly members from his class via a thread specific ban. Gross abuse can lead to a site mod stepping in and dealing a more serious forum or sitewide ban. Please, no nonsense topics, teach us things of value. This forum aspires to be a highly information dense forum where every thread teaches the readers a valuable life skill, be it drug related, about stuff relating to computers or around the home, things that arent taught in actual colleges but which have great merit to know about. We leave it to your common sense and goodwill, fluff/nonsense/illegal threads will be removed and the user penalized. This is an Institute of Higher Learning. You can be expelled from a thread/class or from the forum/University just like that if you misbehave. We want this to be a low maintenance, high quality, highly information dense forum where people come to teach and learn. If you have quality TEKs and pictorials elsewhere on the site that really teach a thing of value, you are HIGHLY encouraged to start a thread about it here and repost them, so we will put all eggs in one basket and have the finest content features here in every single tpoic in this forum. By all means link back to the original thread so people can read the discussion that ensued there. Got something valuable to teach the community and give back to us for all the great things the Shroomery has taught you over the months or years of your membership? Professor, the classroom is yours!
