Manifesto

"Maith, such as I conceive of it, asserts our complete nonconformism clearly enough so that there can be no question of translating it, at the trial of the real world, as evidence for the defence."

1. Let no lesser scribes participate -- Maith must be meritocratic if it is to truly lead the way.

2. Let no one say anymore that they have nothing to write about - any (s)crap can be turned into a post at no cost.

3. Let no fictitious elements infiltrate your posts -- all ideas and opinions expressed must be real.


4. Let no standard of logging be created by critics -- a post inadvertently obscured by an error is equal to a post drawn explicitly by a genius.

5. Let no meals of the day, under any circumstances, be mentioned, particularly breakfast.

6. Let no detail be denied to Maith -- prolificacy is the chief objective.

7. Let no relativist ideals affect your judgement -- justification must not come from within. Posts must be valued objectively by those qualified to do so.

8. Let no considerations of truth or fact define your posts -- imagination is our greatest weapon; truth, our greatest hindrance.

9. Let no worthless banality be published. Posts must significantly add to the stockpile of human knowledge.

10. Most of all, let Maith be open to everyone, for logging must be popular art.
