Just a few words regarding forum conduct: Please treat your fellow members with kindness. You do not have to agree with everything written here, but it is not permitted to make personal attacks on others. Disagree with the post, not the person.
Vulgar language is not permitted. EVER. If we can't express ourselves without it, how can we teach our grandchildren to either.
The following are standard forum protocols, please do not undermine them!
1) No Flaming. Please refrain from posting messages that are harassing, threatening or insulting to another member. It is fine to share your opinions and to disagree, but do so with respect, remember you disagree with the subject, not the person posting it.
2) No Trolling. Do not post any topic intended to disrupt the peace and harmony of this board. This includes starting meaningless threads with the sole intent of starting disputes.
3) No Spamming. Do not double post or cross-post the same messages in multiple forums. Mass emailing or private messaging will not be tolerated. If you intend to use the board for advertising your sites or services, contact the site Admin, for pricing on advertising space. Posting for the sake of building post counts is frowned upon.
4) No Thread Bumping. Please refrain from excessive thread bumping. If no on responds to your post they either do not find it interesting or find it offensive, or just plain do not know the answer to a question, so keep it limited, or just let it go.
5) No offensive posts, links or images. Staff will decide what is appropriate and what is not. Although we fully respect your rights for freedom of expression we also hold a line at content that is obscene, hateful, violent, sexually oriented, discriminatory, unlawful, racist or in general poor taste. Again, staff will decide what is appropriate and what is not.
6) Affiliate links are not permitted unless you are an Administrator or Moderator. If you want the ability to post affiliate links then stick around and post a few hundred times and we'll open it up for you to post in your signature, and inside posts. If you post an affiliate link, we will edit your post to remove the affiliate portion of the URL. If this occurs frequently you will get a warning, if it occurs after a warning you will be permanently banned.
7) Proper spelling and grammar are an important part of good communication. Though we certainly won't be banning folks for poor spelling the use of text messaging acronyms or ALL CAPS as regular means of posting will not be tolerated.
So please do NOT, tipe lyk dis, cuz u wont lyk it wen ya wrned or banned
