As copied from the sticky, the current rules are:
Please read - current rules as of 7-25-07
Welcome to the Fundamentalist forum.
A) For the purposes of this sub-forum, we adopt the Definition by the World Congress of Fundamentalists in 1976, to wit:
A born-again believer in the Lord Jesus Christ who
Maintains an immovable allegiance to the inerrant, infallible, and verbally Inspired Bible;
Believes whatever the Bible says is so;
Judges all things by the Bible, and is judged only by the Bible, aka - "Sola Scriptura";
Affirms the foundational truths of the historic Christian Faith:
The doctrine of the Trinity
The incarnation, virgin birth, substitutionary atonement, bodily resurrection, ascension into Heaven, and Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ
The new birth through regeneration of the Holy Spirit
The resurrection of saints to life eternal
The resurrection of the ungodly to final judgment and eternal death
The fellowship of the saints, who are the body of Christ;
Practices fidelity to that faith, and endeavors to preach it to every creature;
Exposes and separates from all ecclesiastical denial of that Faith, compromise with error, and apostasy from the Truth; and
Earnestly contends for the Faith once delivered.Therefore, Fundamentalism is a militant orthodoxy with a soulwinning zeal. While Fundamentalists may differ on certain interpretations of Scripture, we join in unity of heart and common purpose for the defense of the Faith and the preaching of the Gospel, without compromise or division.
Thus a Fundamentalist can be from quite a few Protestant denominations, even nondenominational. Those that defer to a view that sacred tradition is equal to scripture (not sola scriptura) would not.
B) Whilst we welcome non-Fundamentalists (anyone who does not adhere to the above definition) to our forum any questions must be made in the subforum "Ask a Fundamentalist".
C) Guests can debate in the formal inter-denominational debating forum or formal debating area outside the entire congregational fora. To remain this forum the last haven of the fundamentalists, we don't allow guests to debate the fundamentalist doctrines stated here.
D) Guests are not allowed to post or vote in the fundamentalist forum decisions on rules or moderator election.
Questions phrased in a manner deemed offensive by the moderators shall be deleted.

Does the first rule mean that you have to be a young earth creationist?

Does the first rule mean that you have to be a young earth creationist?"Creationist"? Yes, absolutely.
"Young earth"? I don't think so. I'm pretty sure there are some varied opinions in that area here, actually.
