The Campfire rules

← The Campfire
The short version: talk like you're sharing a fire with people you'll see again.
  1. No name-calling, bullying, or harassment. Argue with the idea all day; leave the person alone.
  2. No hate. Nothing against people for who they are. Zero tolerance, no warnings.
  3. Respect the claim. Never post someone else's spot, coordinates, claim location, or personal information — theirs to share, not yours. (Your own spots: share at your own risk; the internet never forgets.)
  4. Keep it legal. No organizing trespass, no dredging-where-banned advice, nothing that puts a member on the wrong side of a ranger.
  5. No spam or drive-by selling. Gear talk is welcome; unsolicited promotion isn't. (A real marketplace is coming — this isn't it yet.)
  6. Campfire language. Rough edges are fine; filth aimed at people isn't. If you wouldn't say it at a club meeting, don't post it.
Posts are reviewed automatically before they land — a post that trips a rule tells you which one, and you can fix it and repost on the spot. Every post carries a report link. Repeated or serious violations can cost posting rights or membership; rule 2 can cost it on the first try.
