Forum Rules *Please Read!*

[jedimasterjsa]

The general rule is two-fold: Be Polite, and keep it 'G' rated!

Pretty much everything else will stem from this!

Rules Summary:

No flaming, personal attacks, bashing, trolling, etc. etc.
No spam (everybody knows it when they see it, and NOBODY likes it)
No offensive language or content of any kind
If ever you have a question, PM an admin/mod and they will be happy to answer your question
Remember: Admins and Mods have the final say.  If anything questionable or offensive is found (and it will be), it WILL be removed and appropriate disciplinary action towards any offending individuals taken.

Expanded Rules:

Self-Promotion is Spam:
All posts are read by our administration and moderation team. If we catch questionable content, it will immediately be edited or removed for futher investigation. Any post that is considered advertising for one's self-interests, including the promotion of any site one is affiliated with, fits under this subject.

While you are allowed to promote your web site(s) in your signature, you are not permitted to post links to sites you run or are in any way affiliated with in your posts. In addition, users are not permitted to post any kind of affiliate program link with referrer IDs. Repeated violators who post promotional content will be permanently banned.

Language and Trolling:
Our community is family-friendly. There are young users and language should be kept within a 'G' level. Vulgar language is not allowed. This constitutes the use of any kind of offensive, discriminatory, or otherwise inappropriate material deemed unsafe for younger members. Inappropriate language will potentially be removed and users will be warned.

Do not post provocative, outrageous, or pointless messages only to get a response from others, i.e. "trolling." Repeated violators will be permanently banned.

Lastly, if it is abundantly clear that a user has no intention of positively contributing to any discussion, combined with an abrasive, combative attitude, they will be banned.

Personal Attacks:
In order to maintain a positive atmosphere, no personal attacks or insults will be tolerated. While discussions may become heated (though we certainly hope to avoid even this), it is not an excuse to resort to attacks or insults. There is a difference between a passionate, respectful discussion and one that delves into personal matters. Think of it as debating issues, not individuals. When the line is crossed, the discussion may be closed by the moderation team. Violators will be warned and potentially banned.

Moderators and Administrators Have the Final Word:
If you have a problem or a complaint, direct it to the administrators and/or moderators, not to the boards. The appropriate actions will be taken. We reserve the right to ban flagrant offenders and edit any offensive content (whether in a signature, post, link, etc.) when deemed necessary, with or without prior warning.

Cross-Posting:
If you have something to post and you're not sure which board it belongs in, do not post it in more than one board. If the administrators or moderators think it would fit better in another location, it will be moved there. If you are in doubt, shoot a PM to one of the staff and they can help direct you. Duplicate threads only serve to create confusion.

Signature Rules:
A typical signature contains the poster's name, website, and a favorite quote or saying (all are, of course, optional; a signature is not required to post). Small (under 200X200 pixels) images may be used as long as they comply with all other rules (no offensive images).  Excessive font sizes are not allowed. Anyone abusing this privilege will be warned and then have their signature removed until they acknowledge this guideline.

Multiple Accounts Per Individual Are Not Permitted:
If you forget your password, use the password recovery tool, in which case you will be able to reset your password, given that you have access to the e-mail associated with your account. If you are still unable to login, contact an administrator.

Please note that these rules may be modified at any time by the admins/mods.  Be sure to check back every now and again.

Again, please follow the above guidelines when posting on our forum. If you have any questions, please contact one of the staff. Above all, remember to have fun!
