Forum Rules

These are the rules of this forum.  You as a member are expected to abide by them and report any violations to the moderators.

• While debating and discussion is fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, profanity, insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Our decision is final in these matters.

• Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short) non-sense posts, or the such.
• No thread hijacking.
  

• Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed.
• Advertising, spamming and trolling is not allowed. This includes using the forum, email, visitor messages, blog comments, picture comments and private message systems to spam other members.
• Please wait a reasonable amount of time before bumping posts. For style changes and general 'how-to' questions this should be 24 hours. For specific troubleshooting issues, use 12 hours as a guideline.
• We also do not allow posts or links to sites that are sexual in nature.
• Discussion of illegal activities such as software and music piracy and other intellectual property violations are not allowed.
• Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed.
• While we are quite happy to have constructive comparative conversations about competitor's products, we will not tolerate blatant adverts or the sort of 'ooh look, yet another bulletin board' threads. Also, we would appreciate it if you refrain from blatant bashing of other boards.
• We reserve the right to remove offensive posts without notice.
• Posts discussing moderator actions are also not allowed.  If you think you need to contact a moderator, please do so by private message.
• If you find a post on another site pertaining to the topics subject, please give credit to that person on that forum site.  You wouldn't like it if they did it to you.

Any and all violations will be taken seriously and action will be taken regardless. We also reserve the right to ban anyone who wilfully violates the forum rules, as access to our support forums are a privilege and not a right.
Per 1 violation you will be issued 1 warning.  After 5 warnings, you will be removed for a week with a chance rejoin only after a week.  After 10 warnings, remove for 2 weeks, and 20 warnings you will be banned for good.  As far as the warnings go, just abide by the rules that we have set up. EVERYONE will be expected to abide by these rules that we have set(yes mod's you too).  However admin/founders will be allowed some leeway on set rules(perks of the rank).
