This is about to look very familiar. Because I'm stealing it WORD FOR WORD from Marcuse, as a hate week gift to me since it's so well-written, and also because I'm lazy and this is the first Hate-For-All post I found.
I'm also stealing this hat:
Members of the Party, we invite you to a free-for-all right here in this thread.
What does that mean?
It means, if someone is participating in the Hate-For-All, you can hate on them, and they can hate on you...but only in this thread. You can see who's participating by looking at the list at the bottom of this post. Those are the only acceptable targets for your hatred.
How do I participate?
State your intention to participate in here. It will be easier to find you if you post your decision to join in red but this isn't strictly necessary. Warning: Posting hate will automatically enroll you in this event. If you can't take it, don't dish it.
What if I didn't sign up for hate week?
That's fine. As long as you state in here that you're participating, you're free to join in!
Can I take it to other threads?
Nope. You can keep hating on your official hate week partner on the rest of the site as usual (the event's not over yet), but you can't hate on anyone else outside of this thread. For example, I can keep telling SilverMaple that she sucks, all over the website...but I can't tell Dr. Ambiguous that he is as savory as a moldy crumpet anywhere but here (and even then, only if he signs up).
What if I decide I want to stop?
Just announce it in the thread and ask an active mod to remove you from the participant list. It will be very helpful if you make it large and bold so that people can easily see that you're no longer participating in the Hate-For-All.
So Hate Week disclaimers...
Yes, please follow all normal Hate Week rules, complete with disclaimers and using blue text to indicate that something has gone too far (if it does).
So, who can I hate on in here?
