Forum Rules and ban appeals

[Darth_aurelius]

Forum Rules

The following conduct is prohibited and may result in the imposition of warnings by moderations staff:

1. Do not post illegal content to the forums.
This is inclusive of;
- child pornography
- bestiality
- statements which could be construed as threats or used as legal evidence (e.g., threatening to “go ER” at a certain place, time and in a certain manner)

2. Do not exhibit foid worshiping behavior although rating foids SMV is permissible

3. Do not insult or disrespect higher ranking personnel
While we do encourage lively debate, the International Brotherhood of Men is a hierarchical organization and basic courtesy is essential and serves to promote our values of fraternity, camaraderie and solidarity.

4. The following classes of persons are not permitted to register and will be subject to immediate ban without recourse to any appeal if they are discovered:
- minors (under 18 years of age)
- homosexuals, transgender persons and any members of the LGBTQ community
- sex having men*
- Persons of Jewish heritage*
- women*

*Sex having men who are incel-adjacent and have had limited sexual experiences, Jews and women may be permitted to join the lowest echelon forums (International Brotherhood of Men) on a case by case basis, depending on their level of support for the cause and activity in the forums. In all instances, the final deciding authority shall be senior site admins or the Founder, who will conceivably grant special dispensation in exceptional cases which warrant such consideration. If you fall within these classes of persons, please contact a senior admin or the Founder and state your reasons why you ought to be permitted to join our forums.

5. Any other conduct which is either disruptive to the good order of the forums, inimical to the principles of the International Brotherhood of Men or otherwise deemed sufficiently opprobrious per the discretion of the moderating staff.


Ban and appellate policies

1. Forum moderation staff will make individual determinations concerning personal culpability for transgressing upon the forum rules as stipulated above. Unless the user in question has been determined to have committed a bannable offense (e.g., being a homosexual or jew), he will be issued a warning which will be accompanied by a brief summary of the particular offense. Warnings will remain on a user’s record for exactly one week at which point they will be expunged.

2. A user will receive a total of two warnings prior to a ban being triggered.

3. Bans will be automatically rescinded after a period of three weeks unless the user has committed an offense that is deemed sufficiently egregious to warrant a perma-ban from the forums.

4. Bans, including perma-bans, may be appealed in the Incel Appellate Court sub-forum where senior ranking members of the Incel Protection Force will serve as rotating judges and will adjudicate the worthiness, probity and substantive merit of any particular appeal.

5. While all banned members have a right to an appeal (exempting the classes of persons stipulated above as being preemptively disbarred from joining these forums), there is no guarantee that your appeal will be successful and it will ultimately be evaluated based on the totality of the relevant factual considerations.

6. Ultimate and final appellate authority in matters of adjudication of forum policies shall rest in the discretion and good judgement of the Commanding Officer of the IPF or his delegated representatives.
