Just enough to keep order and keep the site enjoyable for ALL of our members
(scroll ALL the way down)
- No spamming--- posting the same thing repeatedly for the purpose of annoying.. this one will get you banned, your ip banned, the book thrown at you, buried under the jail, the key thrown away...Spamming is defined by unsolicited advertising. "Dr. Wangs Penis enlarger" or "Get your long distance for .02 per minute!". Spamming is further defined as posting (same or different) threads multiple times, with the spammer's intent, to do harm to the board. This board is being provided as a free 'toy' and any actions deemed 'harmful' to the board, how it functions or the server will be banned and further action will be taken if deemed appropriate.
- No flooding---Flooding is posting many threads/posts very fast. There isn't a defined flood number because the rate it effects the forum can depend on how many people are on at a time. One example would be 25 threads in 5 minutes. Flooding, especially when many members are on line slows the forum for all members.
- No popping--- we've all seen threads that should go away (so-and-so is a such-and-such), but let us know, if it needs to go it can be edited... don't lock up the board for everyone...
- No nudity or porn-you know what nudity is, this isn't a porn site, and plenty of that is available elsewhere on the net. No nipples, no genitalia. Any questionable photo's need to be labeled as such in the title of the thread for the consideration of others who do not wish to view those pictures or have the picture address show up on logs. Acceptable labeling would include [ R ] or [adults only].
- No links to nudity or porn -- this is what email is for. Share your finds with your friends via email.
- Keep the thread titles civilized--- use your common sense on this one, but worst case, it will be put inside a thread, not gone, if folks are talking in it...
- Most importantly, if you don't like a thread, don't participate in it--- we're big boys and girls, aren't we? This is a post-at-your-own-risk kind of place, don't expect administration to censor bad manners or rude people, that's why we have an ignore feature. Someone's bad manners are a reflection upon themselves. Illegal content WILL be reported to authorities.
- As for fighting? No physical threats or threats to the computers of others...Please refrain from personal attacks, and remember that anything that is said in a post is open season on you, so think before you post...otherwise, if you want to, go right ahead, if you don't, don't...
- We are holding onto the possibility of time-out, but the only thing we're planning on banning for is spamming or flooding......HOWEVER if you have to be addressed more than once for behavior, you're going to be banned or restricted. There is no pay here to babysit members or follow them around in threads to be sure they're behaving this is also what the ignore feature is for and that is why privileges are revoked.
- Photo's may not exceed 675 pixels in width anywhere on the site and not exceed 100px height in a signature. If you're unsure of your photo size, right click on the photo, and choose properties. The size is defined there. Photo's over 675 in width, or over 100 px tall in a signature will be removed. Photo's over 675 stretch the forum for those on lower resolutions and make it very very difficult to read.
