What Is Rule 11?

I have not amended a rule 11 or 12

That was 3 months ago!

The rules were rewritten since then to make them easier.... remember? we had about 20 and they went on and on.....

so I rewrote them a couple of months ago

Okay, apparently it was three months ago when you did but for some reason the discussion went back to the top just now, at least for me.

Shouldn't 11 and 12 be added to the list in the OP for clarity? Also 11 and 12 seem to overlap partially.

I see now, rules 11 and 12 are basically rule 10 now. Maybe you should delete the other posts then. I don't know why this discussion popped up to the top of the page but it really confused me.

Abbie,

I am beginning to miss the old rules.

Dave

i'm now confused...

i had a contract that read like that... as seen in section A and there was no section A - it was all numbers.

i guess 11 is the floater? its made up whenever there is something not on the list and thought of?

It popped up to make people remember the rules


and it worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike,

11 was added five years ago. It was in the thread DK was referring to. It was no politics nor religion.

It is not a floater.

Dave

And yet religion seems to crop up frequently here. Just sayin...

it reads 10 - then an added rule to 12. its like the invisible hidden floor in a building. or how some hotels skip floor or door 13.

Maybe need attached the rules under each thread for reminder...

We have rules?

Maybe that's why I got kicked out of 2 groups this week...

Mike,

Look at the thread going by posting dates, look five years back.

so it goes backward sort of?

1-10 then 12, then 11. its hard to follow that.

OK... religion is allowed AND politics if it is discussing ART

NOT if it is telling people how you vote or why they shouldn't the way they do

----------------------------------

Get over the numbers. It is the WORDING that counts. numbers are there just to break up paragraphs of DO NOT DO THIS. I thought the number looked pretty. I may even make them mulitcoloured

---------------------------------

Group admins make their own rules

----------------------------------

The rules are mentioned at the top of the index ALL the time. There is no excuse not to know the rules

Plus I mention them at least twice a day

I was thinking that if 11 and 12 = 10 then we could break 2 for 1. I guess if we just treated everyone with civility we would all be golden.

The history of art is strongly tied to religion and to an extent politics, as Abbie said as long as it is art related and not telling someone what to do or believe, go for it!

maybe we should go with roman numerals... no one knows how to read those beyond 12.

I don't care what other people believe, I just don't want to hear about what they believe. I pay them the same courtesy.

That is why it is not allowed. But if you wish to talk about the Sistine Chapel then go for it as long as it is only about the art

Rules? Never read them or even looked at them... And look at me, I never get in trouble. :-) :-)

*cough!!!*

David T. Bridburg

Create a bulleted list. Delete the numbers.*

Problems solved,. Comments, complaints and questions eliminated.

(* - also makes modification easier. No renumbering necessary when something is added or deleted)

I have a problem but no one will listen....
Wait we are talking about rules...
never mind

Bullets may be the way to go, Dan, Yes

Bullets...

Don't we have a rule about using bullets ?

I use five bullets in my bio/about.

My best reference letter of all time was in the bullet format. Beautiful letter.

Dave

I'm aiming for a more targeted approach.

It is a loaded question, though.

haha Im sure bullets are fine, if used with discretion

So when someone violates a bullet, are they told to go review Bullet Number X?

Very good point!

I could explain all the rules in their entirety and then we could have rule 6, subsection F

That could be fun

LOL we have very different ideas on "fun".

Dave

BTW your avatar is the clearest view of you yet. Nice!!

But it reminds me of my old real estate photo.

Not that I was ever in real estate.

Dave

can we hear it as a song?

or as a poem.

old real estate photo

OLD REAL ESTATE PHOTO????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????????????????

It is the highest, not that I am stoned, compliment.

The grand order of real estate agents.

Dave

with all due respect to real estate people, I DO NOT WANT TO LOOK LIKE AN OLD REAL ESTATE PHOTO

Going to get a new, new, avatar :-(

Abbie,

Seriously it is an excellent beautiful photo.

I just more and more saw my "clear" photo as that of a sales person.

Dave

Good idea Abbie, I changed mine. Back to an old truck like the avatar I had when I started.

You know we are on many levels sales people, but how we conceptualize that can be very interesting.

Dave

Love the new avatar, Abbie! And very cute hair :)

Open mouth, insert foot, as far as calling her photo old anything! Abbie is not old. Her picture doesn't make her look old.

We weren't allowed to even say the word "old" (referring to people, even if they were old) when I was growing up. I can still hear my mom correcting me: "say mature, or senior... don't say old"... none of which applies to Abbie anyway :)

Don't the Brits say "old girl" referring to a beloved woman of any age? Or is it just in the classic movies I love to watch (from the 40s and 50s)?

Not so much now but I remember my Grandfather calling my Nana 'ol girl' once. She nearly snapped his head clear off

Lol, Abbie!

It's true! That was the day I learned, even as a female, NEVER to say anything like DB obviously was never taught not to



Abbie
It's My Life....

the other bad word i heard not to say is -- looking tired.

Well at long last Mike and I are in complete agreement.

Dave

Hey with my avatar I feel like Steven Martin in the movie The Jerk.

Dave

Ah, rule eleven... reminds me of...



~Richard

This is merely 10

Accordind to Gibbs from NCIS Rule #11: When the job is done, walk away.
That can appy to an artist that when the painting is done leave it and don't keep changing or adding to it.

That is a most excellent rule
