The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

I think this is a good discussion to have!
The main rule should be civility, as in, criticize ideas, not people. If that's effectively enforced, vulgarity shouldn't really be an issue.
Perhaps we could agree to a rule about keeping discussion relevant to the topic at hand, which would also help.
I don't think a rule about vulgarity is necessary because it really shouldn't be an issue if we're all trying to be constructive to the issue at hand. So discourage off topic discussion (and enforce if necessary), and the vulgarity issue should solve itself.
I would agree with this statement.
