1.) A-Before you start a thread, look to see if there are any other threads that are related to your topic. Duplicate threads will be closed.
B-Do not repost a topic just because no on responded when you posted the first time.
2.) Have a creative or self-explanatory title. If you have a title that clearly states what your thread is about, it will be easier to avoid duplicate threads.
3.) Attack the post - not the poster. If you disagree with something someone says, debate it in a polite and respectful manner. You won't agree with everything everyone says and not everyone will agree with you.
4.) If you have a problem with another poster and wish to discuss it with a moderator, please do so in a private message (PM). A public board is not a place to discuss your problems with a mod or poster.
5.) If you have a problem understanding why a mod shut down or deleted a thread, PM the mod to talk about it.
6.) Any thread containing solicitations will be deleted . Trading tapes, magazines, pix, etc. is okay; selling them is not. Also, when posting pictures borrowed from another website upload to your own site from another publication, please make sure you name the source to ensure that credit is given where it's due.
B) We have a special board for all advertiseing/spam. Make sure you keep it confined there.
7.) Please do not post the same picture over and over again in the same thread. Do not post pics in quotes. If you quote someone, please edit out the image before submitting your reply. Also, please do not post HUGE pictures that extend far beyond the width of the page. Pics that violate these rules will be edited or deleted.
8.) language-. Sexist, racist, homophobic comments will not be tolerated.
9.) Please be sure that you are posting in the correct thread on the correct board. Posts in the wrong place will be moved or closed.
10.) Please make sure to read all the messages in a thread before posting. This way, we won't have people continuaously saying the same thing.
11.) A-Do not post one word responses just to up your post count. This is considered spam and it is frowned upon.
B- Do not bump a topic just because you don't want it on the second, third, etc. page. If it slipped off the first page, it probably wasn't that popular.
12.) Signing up for more than one account with the same email address is not allowed. If it happens, both accounts will be deleted.
13.) We periodically delete accounts that have zero posts. You don't have to come here everyday, but please only register for this forum if this a place you want to be .
14.) Members with 100-299 posts will be able to come back within six months of being deleted and get their post count back. Members with 300 and over can come back within one year of being deleted and get their post count back. Any longer than that and you start back from zero.
15.) Some topics will go on and others won't. Please do not start any continuation threads. One of the mods or I will do so when the time comes.
16.) Under you gender information you will see something called a Warn Level. Please pay attention to that. You ideally would like it to remain at zero. It goes from green to yellow to orange to red. Be careful if you hit the red zone. It meas you're thisclose to being banned.
17.) Only admin and moderators are allowed to start polls. If you have an idea for a poll, please post it in the Suggestions and requests thread. Once it is apporved, you can PM the moderator of the board your poll will be on with the options. You will be given credit for your poll idea.
Thank you for your cooperation!
