Yes, they're a bit more strict than someplace, but certainly not the most strict. You can still swear if you feel the need to and you're free to express
any view you wish. I know of quite a few boards where you can do neither of these (as in, no swearing and no racist or sexist beliefs, etc.)

not that that's a problem...

Yea, it's not too bad. Really the "big" rules to watch out for would be to not insult people and to remember to cite your sources.

It will be nice not to have to smack people around... OMG... you should have seen the place I was at before I was invited here... a veritable cess pool... and with partisan moderators too... if they couldn't win their arguement fair and square, they'd just delete your posts or ban you for the day...

That's why we have our rules in place, to prevent this from happening. We did have one blatantly partisan moderator. They were quickly stripped of their mod status and eventually got themselves banned from the site.
All the mod actions here are easily viewable by other mods, so we do a good job of keeping eachother in check. We also all come from a variety of political backgrounds, so no one ideology runs the show.
Welcome to the board.
