THE RULES

NO SPAMMING

Excessive spamming is a no on this forum unless in the off-topic section where it will still be monitored but this rule will be more lax in there. Users found to be actively spamming for the sole purpose of boosting there post count will be warned once and then banned immediatly if it persists still.

NO TROLLING

Dont post with the sole intent of aggrevating other members.

NO FLAMES

Do not flame other users, opinions and debates are welcome but there is no need to start flames if you disagree with a user.

NO INAPPROPRIATE LINKS

Members are not allowed to post pornographic materials or other inappropriate links or images.

THE ADMIN AND MODS

The forum Admins and moderators have every right to delete/lock/move/unlock/split topics/posts if they brake the rules, or if they are in a wrong section. If you disagree with the action taken by our admins or mods please take it up with them via a PM, Topics started for this cause will be locked.

Posting Personal Information...

Even after users have been here a while it is normal to feel relaxed and in with a group of trusted friends. Remember that this is an online community, and just like anywhere else, anyone can read the posts and so it is unwise to post any detailed information about yourself, such as your real name or any type of information that could let bad people get at you. Please remember to use Internet "street smarts" here or anywhere else online.

Avatars & Signatures

To change your avatar go into your control panel located at the top of the forum and scroll to the bottom, the avatar settings are there.
Please do not have any avatars that offend people or are inappropriate, they will be removed and you may recieve a warning.

You may have images in your sig but they will be removed if they are to large, thumbnails would probably be the best.
No inappropriate links or images in your signatures please, again they will be removed and you may recieve a warning. PM one of my team if you are unsure before updating your signature.
To change your signature go to "My Controls" and scroll down to edit signature from there.

100 Post thread locking

Threads will be locked when they reach 100 posts for a couple of reasons.....

Most threads, by the time they hit 100 posts, have wandered off topic. Starting fresh can bring them back on track, or the new thread can reflect the direction the conversation has taken. It also isn't uncommon for no new thread to be made because the topic had really run its course.

It is rare for someone to read 500+ posts before responding, making exceptionally long threads incredibly repetative. This is less of a problem with the 100 post cap - in all likely hood the thread is still very repetative by its third or fourth iteration since people aren't reaching the archives, but at least people are more likely to read the past 50 posts or so if it means starting at the beginning of the thread. The thread starts off with an introduction that includes a FAQ and other tips for new posters. This helps catch them up so they don't have to read the archives.

Also we would undoubtably hit server problems if threads were left running indefinatly.

Personal Messaging

To PM a member here just click the PM button at the bottom of their post. Or you can access it through the members lists which is located at the top next to profile and messages.

You can be warned or banned or even have the PM feature taken away from you for inappropriate PM's, obviously the recipient of your PM needs to inform us if he/she feels it is inappropriate.

If you do recieve a PM which you are not happy about please contact one of the team with the PM you want to report copyed into your message to us.

Warning's and Ban's

We allow each account three warnings. On the fourth warning your account will be banned permanently. Some offenses will result in an instant ban or two warnings, but most result in one warning.

Any new accounts that we can reasonably link to your old account will be banned upon sight.

We don't discuss member accounts in public, so please don't post threads about your warning levels and such, they will be locked. If you still have questions regarding warnings or bans please contact an administrator or moderator and we'll do our best to answer your questions.
