WELCOME to the Oregon GMO Information Network! Please read through the following guidelines before posting: This group was on hiatus during last 24 hours to provide all members with a cooling off period and give the new team time to develop an effective moderating strategy. The November election is less than a month away. Oregonians will be voting on the highly contentious GMO labeling initiative. In order for the forum to function effectively as a reliable source of science and policy information relevant to Measure 92, we must strive for respectful, dispassionate discussion. A full account of forum guidelines can be found here: https://facebook/notes/oregon-gmo-information-network/oregon-gmo-information-network-rules-and-guidelines/304118573084621 In particular, please note the following moderation policies: -The moderators will have a very low tolerance for any comments that appear to be personal attacks. Such comments may result in immediate removal from this group. -If you have an issue with how things are being moderated, please post in this thread, tag one or more of the moderators, and if possible include a link to the discussion you are referencing. The moderation team for this page consists of Marc, David, Marie, and Jen. -Once a moderation concern has been posted, please give moderators time to respond. -We promise to moderate to the best of our ability, but we also expect for people to self-moderate their behavior on this forum. -A moderation decision once made needs to be accepted. Continued attempts to re-hash a decision or take moderation discussions to a topical thread will be considered derailing and grounds for removal. Remember: Always be Awesome, even when you feel that others are not reciprocating your awesomeness. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain OGMOIN as a rational and tolerant space.
