I realise there's no trademarking involved, so the forum can call itself whatever it likes, but it seems to me that if you self-label as skeptics - especially internationally so - you should accept some personal responsibility for acting as you describe yourself.
In what way does ISF aid or support skepticism, or even act skeptically?
Yes, there are skeptical sections to the forum, but since they're the least popular non-member-only section, it's not an obvious connection.
On other boards with skeptic or skepticism in their name, at least lip-service is paid to skepticism, but I'm not seeing a lot of evidence in action here.
Given that this is named International Skeptics Forum, is there a responsibility that the forum is seen to act skeptically itself?
Is it harming or aiding skepticism in the process by not being visibly skeptical in style?
(Keep in mind I do not self-identify as a skeptic.)
