Please read the following rules and guidelines very carefully. By proceeding to post you agree to these guidelines and must obey them at all times. Refusal to obey these guidelines will result in the appropriate responsive actions.

Members on this forum are required to use their full real names for their Display Name. The format to use is your first name followed by a space followed by your last/family/surname. Please capitalize the first letter of each. Accounts that do not comply will be removed and cannot be reactivated. Display names can be edited in My Controls / Change Display Name once you’re logged in.

Please do not send a private message or email to a staff member requesting technical help with this forum. Instead, please use the Support Forum for asking technical support questions.

We require all posts to be positive, constructive, and on topic. We may delete individual posts that could ruin a good topic thread.

We reserve the right to edit or remove any content on these forums that we deem inappropriate with or without forewarning. We will try to give fair warning when we can, but it is not always feasible to do so.

Due to the sometimes offensive nature of political, world news, religious and other related topics, we have deemed them inappropriate for our forums. These topics often result in heated discussions.

You may not make personal attacks on other users or staff members either in public forums or private messages.

You may not use profanity in usernames, posts, signatures or anything else on this website. It is unprofessional and offensive and will not be tolerated. We have word filters in place for the most vulgar terms. Circumventing those word filters will result in punitive action.

We reserve the right to ban any member who violates our guidelines or disrupts our community. We will be fair and provide warning in most cases.

The Golden Rules

There will be no racial, ethnic, gender based insults or any other personal discriminations.

There will be no posts meant to offend or hurt any other member, in a manner which is offensive or inflammatory.

Spamming is not permitted; please keep all your posts as constructive as possible.

Unnecessary bumping of topics is considered spam; please do not unnecessarily bump topics.

Please try to keep images in your profile to a minimum file size to accommodate for dialup members.

Please keep foul language to a minimum, any excessive un-called for language will be removed and you will receive a final warning.

Remember to post in the correct forum and search first to make sure it hasn’t already been posted. Take your time to look at other topics and see where your topic should go. If your topic is placed in the wrong forum, it may be moved by a moderator.

If a topic is recognized as being posted in the wrong forum, or if the post is a violation of our guidelines then please contact a moderator either via PM or the ‘report post to moderator’ feature; please do not respond publicly to the member – a member of staff will do what is required upon contact.

Any impersonation of a user from these forums, in any mode of communication, is strictly prohibited and will result in a banning.

Violation of any of these rules will result in consequences determined on a case-by-case basis.
