1. No personal attacks. We can all talk civilized here, don't call anyone out. If you have an issue with someone, handle it with them via private messaging.

2. Take pride in your posts. Quanity over quality, spammers will be handled immediately.

3. We all drop an occasional curse word. Just make sure that most of your posts aren't curse words.

4. No kidnapping threads. Try to stay on topic. If you wish to talk about an issue that is not already being discussed on another thread; then feel free to post a new thread.

5. Do not create a duplicate thread (a thread with a similar or same topic as another). All duplicate threads will be deleted. Not locked. Deleted.

6. Our Mods are here to help, if you have any questions at all ask one of our mods before acting.

7. Post threads and other posts in the correct forum. they are pretty self-explanatory. If you have any questions to where a post should go then ask a mod.

8. Keeping with the self-censoring idea, please refrain from using any racial slurs or anything that might be viewed as racist and/or discriminatory towards minorities, women, religions, etc. Those that don't adhere to this guideline will be dealt with accordingly and will likely face immediate ban from the forums.

9. It can't be stressed enough, don't let discussions become personal in nature. Sometimes the best policy is to agree to disagree and move on. We all have differing opinions from time to time and that's what makes for great discussions, but it's also what can lead to heated disagreements that become personal in nature. We understand that this is natural and can happen to anyone, but please don't let things get out of hand.

If you find yourself being sucked into a conversation of this type, it's best to just let the moderators deal with the situation. Keep in mind we're all here to talk in a civilized manner, not to argue and sling insults.

A note about our moderators/staff: Our forum staff is comprised of volunteers that choose to give up their own free time to help build a better community here. They have the ability to edit/delete/merge/close posts at their own discretion and without notifying you.

If the moderators find that you aren't adding much value to the forums with your postings, your thread may be deleted or closed, and you may be subject to a temporary or permanent removal from the forums at our discretion. Remember, we value quality over quantity here. Don't get caught up with how many posts you have.

We reserve the right to ban any member who violates our guidelines and/or disrupts our community. We will be fair and provide warning in most cases. If you are banned from the forums you'll probably already know why without anyone explaining it to you. DO NOT re-register under a different username, we have the ability to ban your email address, username, IP address, etc. Trust me, we will track you down under a different username, email, etc.

Commerical postings/solicitations are not allowed. Posts of this nature will be deleted immediately, no exceptions. If you are looking to advertise on this site, please contact the Site Administrator by using the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom of any forum page.

10. Please avoid posting in all caps. AS YOU CAN SEE IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE SHOUTING AND IT GETS QUITE ANNOYING TO READ AN ENTIRE POST THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS. Also, please try to use proper punctuation and paragraphs; it makes your post much easier to follow.

11. Please back up your news sources or rumors by posting an appropriate link or source.

Thanks
ALL TALK FORUM STAFF (7/28/07)
