Subject matter to avoid: Please do not post sensationalist news items and avoid in particular "Breaking News" about mass shootings. This is explained in detail here:
Mass shootings, media conglomerates, and SIGforum. Rushing to post such things in the forum is not viewed favorably by forum ownership. Early on in such incidents, much is not known and much of what is reported is speculative at best and many times is flat-out wrong. Allow time for facts to become clear. We are not talking about waiting hours to post on such things. We are talking about waiting days to post about such things, and that's if we jump on the bandwagon at all, which we usually do not.
