We want everyone who registers to enjoy being a member of the forum, therefore we expect those members to act responsibly and have respect for their fellow users. The forum guidelines exist to help maintain a friendly and supportive atmosphere for everyone who participates in the community.
In using the Site, you agree to obey the law, respect the rights of others and avoid objectionable, defamatory or disruptive behaviour. Additionally, you will comply with the following ‘Forum Rules’ as updated from time to time by us
Choosing to make any personally identifiable or other information publicly available on the Site, is done at your own risk.
Forum Rules
Posting Guidelines:
When posting a new topic, please select the forum that best relates to the subject matter of your topic.
Attachments & Links:
Images, material or links to images and/or material whether real, satirical or implied that are obscene, indecent, lewd, pornographic, violent, abusive, insulting, or threatening in nature are not permitted on this site. Anyone who posts such images will be permanently banned. The moderators will do their best to delete offensive images as soon as is possible. You will not Post, transmit, or otherwise make available, through or in connection with the Site anything that is or may be protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, right of publicity or other proprietary right without the express prior consent of the owner of such right.
Language Guidelines:
Libellous, unlawful, harassing, defamatory, degrading, hateful, abusive, harmful, sexist, homophobic, threatening, obscene, intimidating, racially offensive or otherwise objectionable material will not be tolerated. Derogatory statements, direct or indirect personal attacks are strictly not permitted. Posts that are regarded as argumentative or inciting an argument will not be allowed.
The Moderators work extremely hard at keeping the forum free from such posts, however they will not be held responsible for any posts that contravene these guidelines.
Impersonating someone else:
This is unacceptable, as is adopting an inappropriate screen name (one that is vulgar, offensive, etc.) Posting under multiple usernames is also forbidden.
PM Guidelines:
If exclusively personal contact is needed, use the Private Message system. Do not post a topic where only one member is expected to answer.
PM abuse is unacceptable and absolutely against forum rules. Please let a Moderator know immediately if this happens to you.
Copyright Guidelines:
Copyright infringement is illegal. When posting copyrighted material, please use small sections or link to the article. When posting copyrighted material please give credit to the author in your post.
Illegal download links for audio or video are strictly forbidden, and anyone posting such material, or information on how to obtain it, will be banned. If you are unsure as to whether the link you wish to post falls within this category, please contact a Moderator before posting.
Sales & Unofficial Merchandise:
Please be aware that selling unofficial merchandise is not allowed on this forum. Any other sales must be done via ebay, or a similar site. You may then post the link to your sale on this forum. This is to help protect both sellers and buyers. Also, any members who post links to external website that promote any kind of service not associated or endorsed by the admin on this forum will be BANNED IMMEDIATELY. this is to protect out members and the reputation of this site - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Reporting Violations:
If you witness a posting that violates these terms, please report this post to a Moderator and it will be handled.
Any comments posted that violate our Guidelines are routinely removed as soon as possible. We reserve the right to close the accounts of persistent violators of these Rules of Conduct.
Consequences of Violations:
All users who register to this forum agree to be bound by the rules and terms and conditions. Changes to the rules and terms and conditions will be publicised and further posting to the forum indicates acceptance of any publicised rule. Any user who breaks the rules or terms and conditions may have their message removed.
1- If a member breaks the rules an initial warning will be given, explaining the reason for it.
2- If the member breaks the rules again a temporary ban will be given - at Moderators discretion.
3- If the member breaks the rules repeatedly a full ban will be enforced.
Severe violations may result in immediate banning (temporary or permanent as necessary).
