IMPORTANT NOTE:

On-Topic Discussion Preferred

This is a large MySpace group that I tirelessly grew from a seedling, of which I have been quite proud.
I ask that its members continue to help facilitate its main goal: To encourage vigorous thinking.

ATTENTION: PRIVATE PROFILES & NEW PROFILES:

1. Private Profiles: Send a friend request along with your request for membership so your profile can be viewed; when done your profile will be unfriended (no offense, but I need to see who is asking to join).

2. Newbie Profiles: Sorry, please try again later when you are better acclimatized to MySpace culture.

MySpace TERMS AND CONDITIONS

This group denounces threats of physical violence in posts. Such behavior will be reported to MySpace and you will be subject to banning from this group. Members are encouraged to use the following two procedures to report abuse when you see it:

1. Contact MySpace with Report of Abuse

2. Report Abuse from A Profile

Private message me at my profile with "REPORT ABUSE" in the subject line and I will look into it. Please include links.

Private message me at my profile with "TROLL" in the subject line to report completely off-topic trolling that is meant to taunt and demean with no redeeming intellectual value. Please include links.

The Trolls Among Us (New York Times Magazine, August 3, 2008)

Posts and Bulletins that are bot-like spam will be deleted and your bot will be banned.

I will be deleting "deleted profiles" from the group, slowly.
