It's Unavoidable, the READ THIS first post on the forum.

Begrudgingly, every forum must start with a first post.

Welcome to the Exchange Republic

While the vast majority of forums start out as copycats of other forums, others start with a sole purpose but no forum has ever started it's life cycle in the manner Exchange Republic is setting out to do. The concept behind this forum is to start with a single post and allow the forum to grow as an amorphous experiment into human interaction.

Categories (or folders) will be defined by community response and discussions will follow natural direction as the project continues to grow. If you wish to interact and influence a facet of the Exchange Republic, all you have to do is become an active member here and be a productive part of the community.

The only rules are behave like an adult and treat other people as you would like to be treated. The admins of this forum will not be responsible for "baby-sitting" anybody and we have a zero tolerance policy on spam or anything that even resembles spam.
