1. As much as possible please post in a civilized manner.
Because courtesy (and other ritualized stupidity) is what separates us from the animals. This dictum can be broken down into the following:
a.) Keep your tempers under control even under a rage
Yes, sometimes things may irritate/offend/outrage you since this is the boards you want to have rants and raves, but that doesn't mean that you can respond in more that what you can handle. If anything, exchanging heated words will simply draw people in and cause a flame war, which will more often than not lead to breaking the succeeding rules.
b.) Limit your language to at least PG-18, if you can control it.
Because some of the MEMBERS may be minors, and because excessive lewdness, profanity and sexual innuendo is the sign of a depraved mind. If you absolutely must cross the PG-18 barrier, censor yourself and limit yourself to be cool at times of great stress.
Additionally, do not post images that rate anything more than R-18. Link maybe better but put some warnings! That includes H, anything from rotten.com and otherwise disturbing images. Includes also all Hardcore sexy images, this belong to the special section, a simple not so provocative sexy images are permitted!
c.) Do not make unwarranted personal attacks or spread false statements about someone or something.
That goes for both personal attacks due to inability to refute someone's arguments or spreading and propagating unconfirmed rumors about a person or organization's alleged actions. The former is a logical fallacy and the sign of an immature (or petty) mind and the latter is simply slander.
The penalty of violating these rules will range from post deletion and a warning for minor offenses, to post moderation or temporary suspension for major offenses, to permanent account suspension for repeated and/or serious offenses.
2.) Follow the rules of basic netiquette.
(Here's a primer on netiquette for those with time on their hands.)
This applies to *any* online community you visit. Again, another rule that can be broken down into the following directives:
a.) Do not spam.
Spamming refers to posting comments unrelated to a topic, posting pointless responses (such as a simple emoticon or a one-liner) and posting outside of the appropriate section.Spamming also posting the same messages at different board unless it was an announcement related to BIKING GLADIATORS or by the approval of any Forum Staff.
This also includes advertising unrelated sites or soliciting products that have nothing to do with the subject matter.
b.) Post legibly.
D0 /\/07 P057 |/\/ 1337. dnt pst n txt shrthnd. DO NOT USE ALL CAPS UNLESS YOU'RE EMPHASIZING A POINT. It's not like a few extra keystrokes (Caps Lock included) will take all that much time to push, and it makes your messages easier to read (and more intelligent).
c.) Do not stray from the topic of the thread.
Out of consideration to the person who started the thread and the people following it, please do not attempt to derail the discussion with off-topic posts.
d.) Don't be a Trying hard Linguist
if you cant speak english well and commit many sentence errors, please just speak in tagalog or bisaya.
Breaking any of these rules will result in a warning. Receive too many warnings and you may get a temporary or permanent suspension, depending on moderator leniency.
3.) Avoid posting double topics.
4.) Do not create multiple forum identities
Multiple forum accounts for the same poster are not permitted. You may only have one account per person unless you have permission from the admins.
Some people create multiple identities to spam around without getting their original forum account banned
If we suspect someone , we can track his/her IP and compare it with any other user's IP.
The penalty for violating this rule is deletion of all of the violator's accounts.
5.) Read all Announcements.
At least the ones in the Rules section, and some stickies in the other sections. Ignorance of a new rule, event, E**. is no excuse for violating them. (You can easily see the date of the latest post in the Rules section so this shouldn't be a hassle)
