Fair warning to newcomers to UFOB. Read the rules in the sidebar. THIS is your warning.

This is not like the other subreddits.

Here are our policies not mentioned in the rules;

You are not guaranteed a warning or temp ban before a permanent ban.

No one here wants to hear your jokes but decent banter is tolerated. Keep it limited and on topic.

If you don't believe in a subject being discussed KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. You can catch a ban for this behavior.

If you ridicule any user here I will personally ban you. If you can't say something positive then don't touch your keyboard.

If you don't like this Subreddit or its rules then leave. No one here cares and threats to the mod team will get you reported to Admin who typically ban you sitewide from Reddit.

If you think you're slick and make a new account to circumvent a ban, we can see you. Reddit has built-in tools for that so stop wasting everyone's time.

Posts complaining about this subreddits rules or bans from another subreddit are prohibited. The rules are not changing.

If we smell that you're being a jerk, harassing other users, hinting at political opinions that don't belong, trash talking public figures or simply put your vibe isn't working out here... You will be banned without notice.

If someone is harassing you or you think they're not a good fit here let the mod team know and we'll handle it. Do not stoop to arguing with that user or you'll go down with them.

I hate making these posts but there's a pattern of behavior we're seeing lately and it needs to be addressed because it's not in our sidebar.

If you've read this far I'll share a little UFOB secret with you. We actually listen to our users and the karma filter was removed a while back. Negative karma scores however will be blocked and all accounts need a month of age at minimum for the time being. This allows for more new users to share their experiences as there's many people waking up to the reality of the topic daily. The flip side is we get users who aren't familiar with how this subreddit works and hence the need for this post.

If you're here to be constructive and get answers while treating everyone civilly you're going to love it here and we welcome you.

We will be cracking down on offenders. The regular users are sick of it. The mod team is sick of it. No more chances.

You've been warned. 🖖
