Tracy,
Thanks for posting this. I only now realized that I did
not post the most important rules about this site in the about section. It rarely needed to be said.
This site is meant to be a warm and fuzzy retreat from what can often be a nasty world. It's meant to be a place where you can find friendly people and bask in the warmth. Reiki and issues about Reiki is secondary to this.
Name calling and personal insults towards others are strictly prohibited!
I can't stress this enough so I will state it again:
Name calling and personal insults towards others are strictly prohibited!
I have no interest in what people believe, but I do have an interest in keeping this site free of personal attacks. A long time ago I had given Firekeeper responsibility of acting as modirator because he does the job MUCH better than I would. I'm not nearly as nice,nor tolerant as he is and am more prone to just ban people without so much as a warning.
Keep in mind that this is a private, moderated forum and There is no freedom of speech here in that you are not free to insult others. That is simply the rules of this forum.
Unfortunatly, I have not made this clear in the About section and I will fix that soon.
That being said, I will leave it up to everyone to keep this in mind when posting.
-Mike
