This is a work in progress since I've never created my own community nor moderated one. Bare with me, but the goal is to create a reference community for data and sources. All logic all the time. While I get this built and you'd like to post something that seems on brand, then go right ahead. However, here are some starter rules

  1. No NSFW
  2. No bigotry (this is a coverall. I'm a stickler for phrasing, so choose your words carefully).
  3. Debate, don't debase
  4. It's another person on the other side of the screen. Golden Rule applies
  5. No bias unless it is part of the data and you remain neutral in any description you create.
  6. Citations are required.
  7. No insults (back-handed or otherwise).
  8. Curse/cuss/swear all you want, BUT curse to people. Not at them.
  9. Trolling, brigading, targeting, harassment will not be tolerated. ZERO tolerance
  10. None of us are perfect, so if your argument in a certain case comes to nothing, admit that. You'll get more respect and appreciation for learning something rather than rage quitting a discussion
  11. It's only me on the mod team so far, so please use best judgement to report things. That way, I can respond to the issues in a timely fashion

"The carnivore diet is a fad diet based on eating large amounts of animal fats and very little of anything else. The patient in this case reported eating nearly 10 pounds of butter, cheese and other fatty foods every day since embarking on the diet—even going so far as to add fat to the hamburgers he consumed daily."

I had assumed carnivore was exactly what it sounded like, and just a diet where you only ate meat. This is completely stupid.
